Harper’s Bazaar UK December 2020
Admired during the 1990’s for her outstanding role as FBI Agent Dana Scully in The X-Files, later Lady Deadlock at TV mini serious The Bleak House during the 2000’s and Anna Pavlovna Scherer in the BBC’s War & Peace, in this most challenging 2020, GILLIAN ANDERSON achieves yet again the recently captivated Netflix views as she takes on the mantle of Margaret Thatcher in the Netflix’s new series of The Crown. For the past decade, Bazaar’s UK Women of the Year Awards have been a highlight of readers’ calendar, among of New Bond Girl Lashana Lynch, Normal People’s Daisy Edgar-Jones, Gillian Anderson graces Harper’s Bazaar UK December cover by wearing embroidered silk bustier top, candy trousers, silk sandals and diamond earrings by Giorgio Armani. Her quite rare appearance on the cover of the fashion reading, still owning her very compelling elegance, seemingly the epoch has not been etching her age, captures my immediate attention at magazine shelves.
Watching The Crown season 4, we audience realise the confusion. Besides Anderson finds the prosthetic teeth too cumbersome, she wore a padded suit beneath her clothes to bulk up her rather petite frame into more of Thatcher’s, but otherwise there were no particular physical changes or green screen post-production to do as her role: the grand, almost hoarse voice, the tilting walk, the smile is genial but edged with intent. While Anderson questioning the portrayal onto her role of Iron Lady’s lack of Poll Tax or Northern Ireland, but ore of dramatics portraits of the relationship between royal family or Cabinet members, Anderson had to switch off any preconceived notions of the character and simply try to climb insider her head: ‘It is only about Margaret Thatcher as human being and her motivation as a politician and a mother.’
Under the camera lenses of Richard Phibbs, with back bust portrait by wearing silver mesh dress of Paco Rabanne, black-and-white close-up or the full silhouette of Alberta Ferretti’s tulle and crystal evening gown, Gillian Anderson’s light pastel pinkish makeups is very close to LADURÉE Bougie Délice Scented candle 80g pottery cup, therefore my photography setting I adopt the Bulgarian dried rose buds to decorate. CHANEL Rouge Allure #91 Séduisante and Crayon Sourcils #60 Noir Cendré are almost the lip colour and eyebrow shade on Anderson, 2020 Christmas limited shining silver camellia CHANEL cover my least favourite price tag, COCO travel size 2ml tube and N°5 trial paper give away a festive mood. For the reasons of matching brownish BAZAAR magazine cover font, I display a mini pine cone (käpy in Finnish) from Jyväskylä and Christmas light for more of holiday read of day.
