Using clothes to transform was a huge part of my childhood. But also, I've been acting forever, and wardrobe changes the way you feel, so it totally indicates the character you're going to play.

I've had to adapt my wardrobe to my various roles, both at the office, as a mom, and for television. When I shop for the season I look for pieces that will suit every facet of my daily life, not just one single occasion.

One of my favourite parts of acting is the clothes that you get to wear, because it's very important.

I actually have a piece of the wardrobe of most of the characters that I've played. I always ask for something.

I kind of see clothes a bit like role-playing, depending what mood I'm in.

When I find a look that I like, that's my entire wardrobe.

Your wardrobe should complement your skill set, never detract - or distract - from your assets.

Usually, one of the first things I think about when I'm developing a character is what they're wearing. I mean, it sounds very cheesy and very actor-y, but it really does help me figure it out.

I think of clothes a lot like costumes. I think of what I wear in real life as being my real life character's costume.
