00:00You know, it was a Christmas party and we wanted Cher to look beautiful and kind of a little grown
00:04up at the time, you know, so I was looking at all different red dresses and I found the Alaya
00:08dress, which was perfect because it was like fitted, but had the perfect neckline. It wasn't too tight, you know,
00:13the special Alaya fabric, which is so good. It really is like thick material, so it holds you in, you
00:18know, because Cher was only 16 in the movie, so we don't want anything too sexy. This was perfect. This
00:24is, remember, again, before the PR machines, nobody's sending me clothes in the mail.
00:28I'm also working with young ingenue actors who are not famous, so I was thinking, how do I get it
00:32because I can't afford it? We found somebody who speaks French. We called Alaya Atelier in Paris and said, like,
00:38please, would you lend us this dress? We're doing this amazing movie with this gorgeous Alicia Silverstone, and he said
00:43yes, and the rest is history. And what was also really fun, I got to design the jacket with the
00:48feathers and the matching purse that was a Mona May original.
