Helena Bonham Carter is a real fashion devil

25-10-2006 18:00

Helena Bonham Carter has described herself as the 'Antichrist of fashion'.

The 'Big Fish' actress - who is renowned for her unconventional clothing - has admitted she will never be as stylish as other Hollywood actresses.

Helena is quoted by Scotland's Daily Record newspaper as saying: "I am so not Mrs Style. I am not Sienna Miller or whoever. I'm the Antichrist of fashion."

The 40-year-old - who regularly attends awards ceremonies dressed in outlandish Victorian dresses - has responded to the critics who slam her style by launching her own fashion line. The line, designed by Samantha Cole, is called the Pantaloonies and will feature Victorian-style camisoles, capes and bloomers, with a modern twist.

Meanwhile, Helena - who is set to star as Bellatrix Lestrange in the next Harry Potter film -is delighted to have been cast as the villainous witch.

She said: "I think JK Rowling is a genius. And as for Bella - she is a very bad, bad, bad witch!"

The British actress, who has a three-year-old son Billy Ray with 'Sleepy Hollow' director Tim Burton, says becoming a mother has changed her priorities: "You have to decide if you want to spend the next three months of your child's life on a film set or not. I'm aware my time is more precious now."
