I always look at Style.com and look at all the designers and I know all the model’s names.

I’ve been on ‘Criminal Minds’ twice! On the first show, a boy brought kids out to the woods and was beating them with a baseball bat, but I got away. Then they brought Tracy, my...

I like to be very girly, with bows and ruffles on the red carpet. I love pastel colours, especially blue. Me and my sister both because of our eyes look good in blues.

I mean, it’s amazing that I get to meet all these people. I’ve learned so much from all of them. I just worked with Sofia Coppola and that was amazing. I learned so much from...

I just worked with Sofia Coppola and that was amazing. I learned so much from her. I can’t even describe how much fun I had.

Dakota Fanning is my favorite actress.

I would like to continue acting. But also – if this is a dream world where everything could become true – I’d want to be a ballerina.

I was 12 when I did ‘Super 8,’ and when Dakota was 12, she did ‘War of the Worlds.’ Steven Spielberg was involved with both movies, so we both worked with Steven when we were...

I like necklaces that are short, the way skateboarders used to wear them in the seventies.

I do after-school ballet and also hip-hop and jazz.

I have a sliding glass door on my closet, and when I slide it one way I can see all my uniforms, and the other way is all my own clothes.

I’ll always have acting. But then if I had to choose something else it’d probably be singing or dancing – if I had to. Or maybe, like, designer, like sketching designs.

I sort of make believe. That’s why I like acting. You can create or imagine anything.

I like Jodie Foster and then Meryl Streep. They’re just, like, the greatest ever.

I love the ’70s, I’m very into that right now. The long Chloe dresses, very Virgin Suicides.

When I do a movie, that’s just a couple months out of my year and out of my life. All the other months I’m just at home, running around doing errands with my mom and...

I’m pretty good with not being afraid to just go up to people and introduce myself.

I like playing characters with as many emotions as possible. I’d love to play a really crazy person – someone truly out of her mind.

I’d much rather dress like a 5 year old than a 21 year old. I’d much rather wear a puffy sleeved shirt than some low-cut top.

After ‘Somewhere’ came out, people started to recognize me more. Whenever I was walking down the street, they’d be like, ‘Oh, wow – are you Elle Fanning?’ Before ‘Somewhere,’ they asked me if I was...

I remember the first time Dakota asked me for fashion advice about what to put with what. I was like, ‘My big sister is asking me?’

I’m a normal kid, really. I just love to act.

What’s the best part of a movie? I love to know what my name is. It’s just so fun. That’s the first thing I ask. It’s just fun because you have a different name in...

I would love to do a musical!

I can’t really remember my life without movies.

I love fashion! I love clothes! I really like vintage clothes, so in my closet there’s a lot of ’50s stuff. I go to the stores and shop around.

My favorite actress is Marilyn Monroe.

I like mixing things. I wear a lot of boots. Love boots. And then jeans, but I like to wear them with a really ruffly top. Or I love high-waisted anything.

We take art, and I love all that. But I also like science for some reason. I just like finding out why things happen.

But it’s cool working with female directors because I’m a girl, so you do relate to them more. You can talk to them about other stuff like clothes and all that.

I make movies the same way other kids play tennis or go to piano lessons. I’m trying to get better at what I want to do, just like other kids are trying to get better...

I wore the Marc Jacobs dress, so I love Marc Jacobs. He has a vintage flair. But I’ve always worn a lot of vintage stuff, so it hasn’t been a lot of designers. If I...

I don’t think you should try to be anything you’re not. If you’re not smiling all the time or always happy – I don’t think it matters. If you’re having bad day, show you’re having...

I would love to work with Marion Cotillard… and my sister! I’ve never worked with Dakota before in a movie. It’d be so cool to be on screen interacting with each other one day. It...

I’m a big fish eater. Salmon – I love salmon. My sister loves Chinese food and sushi and all that. I’m not as big of a fan, but she likes it so we eat it...

For a long time, I refused to wear jeans. I liked high-waisted pants, but jeans made me feel like I wasn’t being unique. Even now, I won’t wear the skinny-jeans style, because most people wear...

For my own style, I love vintage. 60’s and 70’s are my favorite. I love baby doll dresses and the soft colors. I try to mix a little bit of modern into that – maybe...

I don’t wear any make-up on normal days and at school. But, if I’m going somewhere, I always do something with my eyes – crazy colors, sparkles. I’m all for it. I love experimenting.
