Emma Watson is the cover story for Glamour UK’s October issue. Preview images of the cover and one of the photos have been released (by Vincent Peters), along with a teaser from the interview.
On how she nailed love, fashion and body confidence
Barely-teen starlets Chloe Moretz, Hailee Steinfeld and Kiernan Shipka might have made wearing school uniform one day and Chanel Haute Couture the next de rigueur for the five-foot-and-under population in Hollywood, but that hasn’t always been the case.
It’s no secret that when an young Emma Watson promoted the Harry Potter films which have brought her huge wealth and fortune, she used to rely on her stepmother’s cast-offs to tread the red carpet. Undoubtedly style lows, the actress has now admitted that wearing “things that were just far too big for me too” are also up their on her ‘rather forget’ list.
So what is worth celebrating about her now very grown-up wardrobe, which includes elegant and occasionally risqué numbers by Valentino, Burberry and Marchesa?
“My all-time favourites are probably the white Alexander McQueen dress I wore to the Empire Awards and the vintage Ossie Clark dress I found in a shop around the corner from my house…” the 22-year-old tells the new issue of Glamour , which she covers to promoter her new film, The Perks of Being a Wallflower .
Unlike the aforementioned Steinfelds and Shipkas, Watson was the ripe old age of 18 when she debuted in said McQueen, wowing the crowds at The National Movie Awards in London in a romantic white gown with draped sleeves and a silver, crystal-embellished bust. And as for the grey, plunging neckline Ossie Clark gown she wore to the Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince premiere in London’s Leicester Square in 2009, we’re glad to hear the memories sustained from that evening are good ones; torrential rain and a gust of wind revealed her flesh-coloured undergarments to the world.
Luckily, Watson has taken it all in her rather down-to-earth stride: “it helps that I’ve accepted my body shape more as I’ve got older” she concludes.
You forgot the GLAMOUR US, boss!
This cover pic of her is just AWESOME…very natural yet so beautiful…she can really give other actresses out there pointers.
those photos r outstanding and emma looks amazingly well
The pictures are soooo beautiful !! truly I love those deeply.
I’m actually not found of her current hair cut (prefered when it was shorter, or I liked when it was long, but now it feels like she has no real hair cut) however here for the first time i love what they have done with it !
Also, I read the article, when she talks about the vintage Ossie Clark dress she wore, I must say it’s actually one of my favorite look of hers. For this London premiere she was beautiful, simple but beautiful (and loved her hair that day !)
She looks stunning. <3
Definitely one of my favourite shoots Emma has ever done. She looks so relaxed and happy, the dress is beautiful, and i love her simple hair and makeup.
Every time I see Emma I ask myself whether she is truly from our world, because she’s too beautiful to have come from this planet. Especially the cover picture. What a beauty. 😀
