Oscar-nominated actress Julianne Moore says that it “is a privilege” to be able to wear the most beautiful designer clothes as she continues to wow on the red carpet during awards season.
Julianne Moore has jetted into London ahead of this weekend’s BAFTA Awards, where she revealed how she’s getting style-ready for the red carpet.
“I had a fitting yesterday, so I think it will all be OK,” she told the Daily Express.
Julianne, 54, has already picked up a total of 17 awards including a Golden Globe and a SAG Award for her performance in Still Alice and now this weekend will attend the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards, or BAFTAs, where she is nominated again.
As well as her noted dramatic talents though, the stunning red-head beauty is of course also renowned for her immaculate red carpet style, which she admits is one of her favourite parts of these awards events.
“I do think it should be fun,” Julianne continued. “It really is a privilege to get to wear these beautiful clothes and to work with these exciting designers. It’s fun to play dress up for the night.”

Of course, awards season can be stressful too: “It’s a lot, it’s definitely a lot,” Julianne said. “But it brings so much attention to the movie, and this is a movie we all care about, and so it’s wonderful because hopefully people will see the film.”
She continued: “It’s so, so nice to receive these accolades, particularly from your peers. There are so many great performances and great films every year, so if people even bother to write down your name, it’s really lovely.”

Julianne has also been nominated for that most sought-after of film awards – an Oscar, for her performance in Still Alice, a heartbreaking movie about a renowned linguistics professor and loving mother and wife who receives a devastating diagnosis, of Early-onset Alzheimer’s disease.
Speaking at a special screening of the film in London ahead of the Awards, Julianne spoke about the reaction of viewers and how the film has been received.
“It’s been really amazing, I have to say. That’s probably the most rewarding experience I’ve had, because I think there’s a tremendous amount of shame around the disease and people feel like they’re not seen, they feel isolated.
“And so it’s been nice to hear from people that their experience was represented and they felt seen.”
