What is the worst thing that happened to you on set? The worst thing that has happened to me on set is when all of the shoes were two sizes too small and I had to stand in them all day for the shoot.

What is the best part of being in front of the camera? The best part of being in front of the camera is transforming into a new character and the challenge of taking on a new role.

What’s your favourite show you’ve walked? Louis Vuitton. At the beginning of the show [Marc Jacobs] steps out on this big thing and is like, ‘girls, I’m so proud of you’—that’s what McQueen used to do—he’s like ‘we love you for who you are and we don’t cast you because you fit a certain size, we cast you for your personality.’
