Anya Taylor-Joy Covers Harper's Bazaar UK Women of the Year by George Antoni

Anya Taylor-Joy Headlines Harper's Bazaar UK Women of the Year by 2022 AOC Fashion

Actor Anya Taylor-Joy tells Harper’s Bazaar UK’s Frances Hedges that her makeup for the Mad Max: Fury Road prequel Furiosa is the “juciest and bloodiest” of any she has worn in a movie.

“It will take me the full two years before the movie comes out to even begin to process what I just left 12 days ago. [Furiosa] was the most life-changing experience that I’ve ever had, with such talented artists. I really felt like I grew so much, but yes, it’s wild. It’s utterly unique,” Taylor-Joy told The Hollywood Reporter in another new interview.

Eddie the stallion is front and center in George Antoni’s Dior fashion story. The strong and dominant animal is a prevalent symbol in French culture and luxury brands. Dior’s creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri frequently uses equestrian-inspired, cultural locations in her shows.

Leaving her birthplace of Miami to spend her early years in Argentina, Taylor-Joy fell in love with horses as a young girl. Speaking of the Harper’s photo shoot, the actor exclaimed: "That horse is my new obsession. I fell in love with him the second we locked eyes across the paddock – I was like, 'Hello! We’re gonna be friends for life'."

With the expansion of her personal life with musician Malcom McRae, Taylor-Joy is ready to slow down a bit. Incredibly private about her relationship, the actor neither confirms or denies that the couple quietly married in July 2022.
