Up-and-coming actress Stacy Martin has been busy, travelling across a daydream continent of French fashion house fantasy and hardcore Danish cinema. It all started in London, where we photographed her playing vintage dress-up in Chanel’s secret showroom; then on to Paris, where we filmed her watching Karl Lagerfeld’s grand visions come to life in the Grand Palais; then Copenhagen, where she took her boyfriend to watch her lustful turn in Lars Von Trier’s Nymphomaniac (out on Christmas day!); and now, back in London, she’s driven her Honda C90 pizza bike across town to talk to us. Read her stories below, and watch our day in the life of Stacy in Paris right here.
So you’re just back from Copenhagen…I went to see my movie. Well I’ve seen it already but I went with my boyfriend so he could see it before it comes out and the craziness starts. I really want people to see it now because there’s so many expectations… it’ll be interesting to see how people react because I don’t think they’re expecting the right thing. Not in a bad way at all, but Lars has done a really good job so it’s going be a good present to watch.
Are you still in touch with Lars now?
