Although I was born in Idaho and now live in New York, I definitely identify with the European aesthetic. Paris is my mecca; it’s where I discovered my flair for fashion. But I pay rent and work in New York, so that is my home – I love the culture clash of the city. Dree Hemingway Read Quote
I dream of working with iconic directors such as Tim Burton, Baz Luhrmann, Terry Gilliam and Wes Anderson – so I’m setting my sights pretty high! My perfect role would be in a fairy-tale period piece, and I’m quite upset all the Harry Potter movies have been made as I’d love to have been in those. Dree Hemingway Read Quote
When I was 17, I studied at RADA in London for the summer. I wanted to live abroad and to pursue drama, so it seemed like the perfect opportunity. I thought I may as well throw myself in at the deep end. My first big role is in ‘Starlet.’ Dree Hemingway Read Quote
My favorite question is ‘What do you do?’ I’m like, ‘I’m a walking cliche: I’m a model and an actress.’ Dree Hemingway Read Quote
I don’t have any tattoos – I live vicariously through my sister, Langley, who has many. If I can’t stick to one ensemble, I don’t think I could stick to one tattoo. Dree Hemingway Read Quote
I prefer to leave a little room in my bag to grab goodies when I’m travelling, but otherwise you need one good pair of shoes that can be worn day or night, a pair of black jeans, and a nice dress. Dree Hemingway Read Quote
Once, in an interview with ‘V’ magazine, I said that I preferred Fitzgerald to Hemingway. I think that Hemingway is an amazing writer, but by being related to him, I had it in my head that I had to like him. Dree Hemingway Read Quote
I have a hard time finding something that I really enjoy reading, but I read ‘The Great Gatsby’ every summer. Dree Hemingway Read Quote
I think my biggest learning experience is that it’s okay to be who you are – you don’t have to exactly fit the mold of what people think a certain kind of career is. I think that discovery – of really knowing who I am and being okay with that and loving myself – was amazing. Dree Hemingway Read Quote
