From a cleaning lady to Princess Margaret, there is no typecasting the multi award-winning actor Lesley Manville. She talks to AMAZING about flying the flag for the over 60s, the perils of social media fame and the transformative power of a beautiful dress.
Lesley Manville is a picture of elegance in a burnt orange linen trouser suit teamed with cream satin camisole and black high-heeled sandals when we meet at a central London hotel to talk about her new film, Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris.
There’s a story to tell about Manville’s outfit, by Budapest-based fashion label Nanushka, that has charming parallels with the fictional Ada Harris’s quest to buy a dress at the fêted House of Dior in Paris. The actor first encountered Nanushka while filming in the Hungarian capital, standing in for the French city, and learnt that the founder Sandra Sandor was about to open a London boutique on Bruton Street.
