Kirsten Dunst Allure Photo Shoot & Interview

"Kirsten Dunst has played the victim of a vampire and the guillotine. But at our cover shoot, she was cheery and game for anything. See these exclusive outtakes from her shoot with photographer Carter Smith. For more photos, as well as the profile "Testing the Waters", pick up the December issue of Allure, on newsstands November 24.Dunst has been famous since she was 12, but she's low-key nonetheless: She drove to our shoot at Los Angeles's Franklin Canyon Lake in a silver Prius, and didn't ask for anything more than a Hansen's pomegranate soda throughout the steaming-hot day."Kirsten's hair has a great natural wave, but I wanted to make it more playful and tousled," said hairstylist Ken O'Rourke, shown here with the actress. He curled pieces with a curling iron, then misted the sections with a mix of water and mousse—his own concoction—to make the hair look "less polished", he said."My look for Kirsten was a sexed-up version of her usual laid-back approach to beauty," said makeup artist Polly Osmond, who applied short false eyelashes and rimmed her eyes with black liner, then added black mascara, cream blush, and nude lip gloss. Here, the actress poses carefully (it was muddy) for Smith in a cotton dress by Nolita.When Allure's creative director, Paul Cavaco (above), called the actress a week before the shoot to discuss clothes and ideas for the photographs, the actress was on her way to New Orleans. Her road trip through the South inspired her to suggest a Southern Gothic theme for the pictures. "You can see why Kirsten is a good actress," said Cavaco. "She is involved in the entire process."1999: WITH MICHELLE WILLIAMS IN DICK
"Michelle and I have remained friends. We played Deep Throat in the Watergate scandal. It's a really clever film. It's funny for kids, but also good for adults".
2004: WITH THEN BOYFRIEND JAKE GYLLENHAAL AT THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW PREMIERE IN NEW YORK CITY
"I'm wearing a Chanel blazer, and all my hair is chopped off. I think that's fake snow. We were at the Museum of Natural History. If I saw him, it'd be nice to see him, but we're not good friends".
2006: WITH SOFIA COPPOLA ON THE SET OF MARIE ANTOINETTE
"I remember this outfit because she's being cut in half—that kind of metaphor. She was interested in painting and dancing and not studying, and Louis XVI was thrown into it, as was she. He liked to make clocks. When you think of them like that, it's more human."
2007: WITH KARL LAGERFELD AT THE CHANEL SHOW IN PARIS
"He uses the same stuff I do to make your hair look clean: Klorane dry shampoo. It's great stuff—you just have to shower less. It has a white powdery effect. He's from Germany, and I speak a little from my dad, so we chatted in German."
2009: ON SET FOR A TAKASHI MURAKAMI VIDEO IN TOKYO
"There are girls who dress up like cartoons—they live out this weird fantasy that we would never live out in America. Murakami is so humble and kind. I collect art, but I can't afford Murakami". Dunst's role in All Good Things, which comes out in March, is different than anything she's done before. She plays Kathleen McCormack, the first wife of real-estate heir Robert A. Durst; McCormack disappeared in the early 1980s and has never been found. "I got to play out things emotionally —I can recognize the behavior I share with this character, then work things out that I didn't have a way of expressing", says the actress".
