...Luckily, Fanning has the kind of
personality that finds it impossible to hold a grudge, and the sisters
are each other’s biggest supporters, keen to find an opportunity to act
together soon (pending tick). They also share a stylist, Samantha
McMillen, who has helped guide them to the status of red-carpet royalty.
It helps that fashion is something Elle loves. “Every
red-carpet moment, just go for it. Why not just use it as an experience
to wear something and have that moment, you know? I’m always looking at
the shows, and I send looks to Samantha and she tries to get them or is
inspired by them because with each movie we take inspiration from the
character or the vibe of the film. We’re already thinking about Maleficent…”
Well,
since she brought it up, what can we expect from the return of one of
Disney’s greatest love stories?
“I hope it’s what the fans are looking for. The mother-daughter relationship that Maleficent and Aurora have, that’s really…played on,” she demurs. What she will reveal though, is a little something about Aurora’s wardrobe – and personality.

“I want Aurora to be a character that [girls] can look up to, who’s strong and all that. But Angelina [Jolie]
and I were talking about this: Maleficent, of course, has the dark
side, and Aurora is the one who loves pink and is the light and she’s
not afraid to be feminine. I think it’s beautiful that I get to
represent [someone] who is strong in her beliefs, but is also unwavering
in staying true to herself. I wear dresses the whole time throughout
the film… I don’t have a moment where I burst into armor, you know what I
mean? There’s nothing wrong with loving your feminine side. I think as
women we should really love that part of us.”
