(Cover) - EN Star Style - Michael Urie says he wears hooded jumpers like they are fresh pieces of couture.

The 30-year-old actor achieved worldwide acclaim for his portrayal of stylish personal assistant Marc St. James in the popular US comedy series Ugly Betty about life at a hip New York fashion magazine.

Despite always looking trendy on-screen, Michael admits he isnt particularly interested in fashion in his spare time, and prefers relaxing in tattered casual wear. Nevertheless, the actor does concede that whatever he wears, he wears it with panache.

Probably the hoodies that I wear almost every day. Theyre falling apart, but I wear them like they are fresh pieces of couture, he replied when asked what the most shocking garment in his wardrobe was.

Michael admits that in real life he has much more in common with the title character of Ugly Betty, played by actress America Ferrera. Betty is famous for looking un-groomed and un-coordinated, which the actor admits is a look he frequently sports.

In real life, Im much more like Betty than Marc in the fashion department! he blushed. (C) Cover Media
