Emma Watson: 'It's hard to find right clothes'

Emma Watson has revealed that it is "quite difficult" for her to find clothes to wear on the red carpet that are appropriate for her age.

The Harry Potter actress, who recently topped Glamour magazine's Best Dressed Women 2011 list, explained that she doesn't like to go over the top with her appearance.

She told WWD: "I try to dress age-appropriately, which isn't actually that easy when obviously high-end clothing is designed for women who are older than I am.

"It's a fine line to tread between looking smart and looking ready to go on a red carpet but also looking like I'm 21. It's quite difficult.

"I think less is more - less make-up, less accessories is better."

Watson, who is the face of Lancome, recently helped to choose the colour of the brand's Tresor Midnight Rose women's fragrance, which is due out worldwide in September.

She also worked on the advertising campaign, which was shot by Mario Testino and explained that she had lots of ideas for the shoot.

She added: "It's funny, the guys at Lancome were like, 'You need to be directing, Emma.' I had ideas about every aspect. I'm sure I drove them insane.

"I was involved in the concept for the [ad] film and the tag line, 'Catch my heart if you can.'

"The hat [in the ad] was my hat, which I bought at a flea market in Paris. I was very involved in the script. It's been really fun for me."
