I think the big thing is the fairy tale. It's taking old folk fairy tales and retelling them in modern day. I think it's just taking you out of everyday life, and everyone loves a good fairy tale.

More quotes by Lily Collins
I've grown up knowing that you put as much of your private life out there as you feel comfortable with.
Lily Collins
It's really important to stand up for yourself and not always agree with what people say if indeed you don't feel that that's true
Lily Collins
I had a mini marathon once I landed the role - going from 'Splendor in the Grass' to 'Bonnie and Clyde' to 'Shampoo' to 'Reds.' I watched them back to back. I found that when you're in the mood for 'Reds,' you're not in the mood for 'Shampoo.'
Lily Collins
Definitely with the fit of clothing - how it really depends on mere centimeters and millimeters of difference in terms of how lengths can make such a big impact on your shape. I learned how to incorporate a cute peter pan collar on a dress and not make it look juvenile.
Lily Collins
I don't know if this is too weird to say, but this is completely surreal for me. Bizarre. The cover of 'Teen Vogue' has been on my bucket list forever.
Lily Collins
Wearing a corset, a ball gown, heels and a swan hat with wings to fight in the forest gave me a whole new appreciation for everyday clothes, because you really become that alter ego while wearing those costumes in those environments on the set. They just influenced everything you tried to do.

[My book is] a collection of letters and essays about what it takes to be a young woman today. Mostly the taboo things that girls don't want to talk about, but once we do we realize we're not alone.
Lily Collins
How women dressed every single day back in those days is seen as kind of incredible - it must have taken so much time. But there's something so romantic about that because it's so different to how we dress. That aesthetic is so appealing, it's not what we're used to nowadays.
Lily Collins
I've realized the quirky things that make you different are what make you beautiful.
Lily Collins
I felt different although my mum kept reminding me it was OK to be different.
Lily Collins
The idea that I get to travel and do what I love and call it a job is just a blessing.
Lily Collins
In the '30s, every day was an event. And, as much as I love that idea, I think nowadays it's nice to have the differentiation of when you dress up and when you don't.
Lily Collins
When you trust and have elevated personnel in each department then the sky really is the limit.
Lily Collins
Marla [from Rules Don't Apply] especially, believed that she has a certain set of rules that she had to abide by, in order to be successful in Hollywood. How she acted, how she approached things and even in her relationship with her mother - there were a lot more rules and regulations expected of ambitious women, even before they got into the door.
Lily Collins
I watched a few of Warren Beatty films when I was growing up...my Dad loved 'Heaven Can Wait.'
Lily Collins
There's this common perception that having a famous last name is all you need. A surname may get you a meeting, but if there's no talent you won't get the part.
Lily Collins
To play someone I loved in my favourite fairytale as a kid is a total honour.
Lily Collins
My mom brought me up on old Hollywood. I had been living in Los Angeles. Respecting old movies and growing up with people that were icons that I got to speak to.
Lily Collins
Snow White has always been one of my favorite fairy tales growing up. To be able to say, I'm going to be Snow White - it's crazy. It's an honor.
Lily Collins
Everything for me has happened so quickly. I finished shooting 'The Blind Side' not this past June, but the June before, and all of sudden up to now, it seems like it's gone from zero to 60 for me. I feel so fortunate to be able to say that.
