Can we make this official? Dakota Fanning isn’t a child actress anymore. When she arrives at the Sunset Tower Hotel in West Hollywood, she’s wearing a black half-leather miniskirt, over-the-knee boots, Cartier jewelry, and a whisper-thin white tee—a far cry from the waif who starred in I Am Sam at age seven or the perma-tween vampire she played in the Twilight series. And not only does she have casual-sexy glam down perfectly; this 19-year-old, with her messy-cute hair and short, chipped glitter-orange nails, actually strikes us as fun. Serious, we-want-to-be-friends-with-that-girl fun. Here's a sneak-peek at Amy Spencer's interview with March cover star.
On if she’s having fun with the “fashion icon moment” she and sister Elle are having now…
“It’s really fun when you’re getting dressed for something. It’s not when you’re in the rain with an umbrella and trying to carry a case of water. Yep, that’s me, alone, coming from Duane Reade. I’m not wearing a bra. Deal with it.”
On if she was surprised when her Marc Jacobs perfume ad was banned in the U.K. in 2011 for being “sexually provocative.” [In the ad Fanning sits on the floor with a large perfume bottle between her legs.]
“Yeah, I was! If you want to read something into a perfume bottle, then I guess you can. But it’s also like, Why are you making it about that, you creep? I love Marc and trust him, and we just laughed about it.”
On if she’d ever turn her love of clothes into a career a fashion designer…
“I don’t think so. I mean, I won ’t rule it out, because then one day I’ll be like, “I said that in Glamour in 2013, and here I am now [with my own line].” But when you know designers and see the work that they put into making their collection, and how much passion they have for that—I think that’s so amazing. And I don’t have the passion to design clothes. It’s nice to be able to grow up and know what you want to do…. I’m reminded of that every time I make a film.”
On what little sister Elle has taught her…
“She’s very uninhibited and will try pretty much anything. Even the way she dresses— she dresses totally for herself. She risks being made fun of…by me, which I sometimes do, because I’m an older sister! But I totally admire her and think she’s very cool.”

Glamour: What about your friends? Do you have a million friends or just a couple? And are they celebrity friends, or are they - what would you say - noncelebrity friends?
DF: One of my best friends is an actor, but a lot of them I met in high school. They are amazing, and I have stuck with them.
Glamour: You said you have one famous-y friend. Kristen Stewart, I'm guessing?
DF: Yeah. Yeah.
Glamour: Is that friendship different than your others because yo've been through so many similar things?
DF: When we're together, we're not talking about movie stuff. She's just my really good friend, you know? We go out. We stay in a lot too. I'm a homebody!
