Elizabeth Hurley on the Safety-Pin Dress That Made Her Famous 32 Years Ago

Elizabeth Hurley, now 61, tells Sunday Life she still loves dressing for black-tie events but finds smart-casual "surprisingly tricky," and credits fit above all else — she has clothes forever nipped and tucked by an alterationist and sometimes alters them herself. She says she wasn't chasing a fashion moment in 1994, when she wore Versace's safety-pin gown to the Four Weddings and a Funeral premiere alongside then-partner Hugh Grant; the dress is now credited with launching the "naked dressing" trend later reworked by Kim Kardashian and Beyoncé. She borrows diamonds for events, returns them the next day, and spends the money on trees for her Herefordshire home.
