Emma Watson ‘had to borrow’ dresses from stepmother for premieres

Emma Watson has said that she was never spoilt for choice of dresses to wear on the red carpet - in fact, she had to borrow dresses most of the time.

Watson revealed that never had a stylist and was forced to borrow outfits from her step-mother so that she would have something to wear at her movie premieres.

The 20-year-old actress dreaded walking the red carpet as she was growing up because she didn't have any fancy frocks to wear, reports The Daily Express.

Watson admitted she would don donations from her relatives or pick out bridesmaid dresses from London department store Harrods as a last-minute alternative.

"Everyone imagines stylists were on tap from the studio, but we got nothing. Sometimes I had two days' notice before an event and there was nothing appropriate for a 14 year old to wear. I'd look in my wardrobe and there was literally nothing. It was either borrow from my stepmother, or go to the bridesmaid department at Harrods," she told Vogue magazine.
