Elizabeth Olsen: 'It Doesn't Destroy Your Career If You Appear Nude Or Take Risks'

Elizabeth Olsen: 'It Doesn't Destroy Your Career If You Appear Nude Or Take Risks'
|

Elizabeth Olsen looks all grown up in the latest issue of Net-a-Porter's digital magazine, The Edit.

The 26-year-old actress might just be the most stylish Olsen sister, wearing dresses by Etro and Emilio Pucci, necklaces by Isabel Marant and sandals by Valentino in the spread. Not only are there amazing fashion moments inside the magazine, but readers get a feel for the starlet's personality in her candid interview.

Olsen discussed her famous sisters Mary-Kate and Ashley, raiding the showroom of their fashion label Elizabeth and James, and getting naked on screen. Her thoughts on film nudity were inspired by watching Kate Winslet in an Australian flick from 1999.

"I love Kate Winslet and Cate Blanchett. I remember watching 'Holy Smoke' and thinking that it was so reassuring to see a young Kate doing something that was so bold in so many ways,” Olsen said. “I thought to myself, ‘OK, so it doesn’t destroy your career if you appear nude or take risks.’"

We have a feeling that this actress won't be playing it safe in Hollywood.
