It’s amazing to be able to come home and change into a totally different of side of myself. The ability to bounce around change and not do the same thing and not have people judge you by that is great. I’ve got super super girly clothes, all sorts of pretty pastel dresses, but also leather pants, jet-black vests, and menswear stuff. I have a gigantic closet and nothing is the same. I definitely love taking risks fashion-wise. What’s your style philosophy both on and off the red carpet? She’s an intelligent, talented, interesting person and you forget that she’s still just a little girl. She’s so well put together both in clothes and who she is as a person. I love Chloë’s fashion sense, it’s truly incredible that she’s as young as she is and has such an amazing sense of style. You obviously worked with Chloë Moretz on the film-what do you think of her fashion sense? That’s why people in movies always look perfect! I could not keep myself together without help.I’ve had people holding down my shirt so the right amount of cleavage was showing. There’s always someone on set looking out for things that’s supposed to be. You have someone following you around all day making sure everything is where it’s supposed to be. There’s always stuff falling out, there’s a lot of double-sided tape. I will tell you that I split my pants on the set! It’s not all glamour. What’s a secret from the set in terms of costumes that people may not know? For me, a costume is totally a number one priority. I felt empowered, strong, and tough in it-and I needed it. It was totally true on “Kick-Ass 2” when I put that costume on everyday, I felt like I could do anything. Part of the fun of it is figuring out who you want to be, so I sat down and I thought about it and I said, “I would want to be like any girl, with high heels impractical to run in, super tight pants that look totally badass, and I wanted a cape ’cause who doesn’t?” It was so much fun! To me, a costume really puts you in a period, in a time, in a place.
She is in the actual comic books so there is an established looked for her, but it was impractical for her in real life because it was only a series of belts! So the costume designer Sammy Sheldon and I really got to start from scratch, and she comes in with all these incredible ideas. I had a lot of ideas going into this and what I wanted Night Bitch to look like. Working for me is so much fun and it’s really what I get to do. When I was little I had a giant dress up box and it was so fun to figure out who I would become each day. I’m a dress up girl, it’s why I wanted to be an actor to begin with. To me the costume is always so important. Obviously, since it’s a superhero flick, there are crazy ensembles-what was your experience like with the costumes? It has real stakes and real drama as well as over-the-top comedy. And then on top of that, as an actor, it’s so much to be playing with the heigtehened emotions between the action and the comedy. I was a huge, huge fan of the first movie-I saw it opening weekend so walking into the set and seeing all the characters and costumes was like walking into a dream.
