Christina Hendricks loves working with top photographers

11th September 2010

(Cover) - EN Fashion - Christina Hendricks says the best thing about her fame is getting to work with top photographers.

The actress plays Joan Holloway in US drama Mad Men, and is also well known for her voluptuous figure. She was named the sexiest woman alive by Esquire magazine earlier this year, and has been praised for bringing a more curvaceous form back into fashion.

Christina admits all the attention her body gets is strange, although it has brought her some perks.

?It was very unexpected and it?s incredibly flattering. I think the most exciting thing for me is that I?m working with all these photographers that I have admired for years and that back when I was modelling I would?ve died to work with,? she told the British edition of OK! magazine.

Mad Men is set in the world of 1960s advertising, so Christina has to wear clothing from that era. She isn?t a huge fan of many of her costumes, but explained she helps pick them as she is so sure of what Joan would wear.

?I have my own sense of style, but when I go into fittings for Mad Men, even if I don?t like it personally I?ll go, ?Well, Joan would love this,?? she laughed. ?She likes to present herself in a very specific way. Actually I?ve grown to like the sensibility of the 60s much more now, even the clothes to a certain extent and the hair ? which is just awful.? (C) Cover Media
