Carey Mulligan Covers 'Harper's Bazaar UK' June 2013

Carey Mulligan is simply gorgeous on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar UK‘s June 2013 issue.

Here’s what the 27-year-old actress, who had her makeup done by Georgie Eisdell and hair by Jenny Cho, had to share:

On listening to LMFAO on the Great Gatsby set: “That’s what we used to dance to. It’s also the song that made me laugh hysterically and there were lots of times when I needed to go into a scene with that kind of energy.”

On meeting Daniel Day-Lewis: “He wrote me this beautiful handwritten note a couple of weeks afterwards just saying how nice it was to meet me and that he’d like An Education. His penmanship was beautiful. The note was the most beautiful thing. If my house was burning down I would save that. It is so precious.”

On Cate Blanchett: “When I was about 14 years old at school we had a copy in our rec room of Elisabeth starring Cate Blanchett and we just watched it over and over again. Then I met Cate in Sydney because she had worked with my co-star Joel Edgerton [who plays Tom Buchanan in Gatsby]. They had done A Streetcar Named Desire together, so we all went round to her house for lunch. She was so wonderful. She lived up to my expectations.”
