Victor Demarchelier Eyes Sarah Paulson In 'She Who Dares' For The Edit December 2017

Actor Sarah Paulson fronts The Edit's 'Get Into The Red' December 7th issue with 'She Who Dares', a fashion story about scarlet, styled by Charles Varenne. Photographer Victor Demarchelier is in the studio, with an Edit focus not only on Paulson's clothes, but her relationship with Holland Taylor ./ Hair by Earl Simms; makeup by Tyron Machhausen

Paulson, 42, tells The Edit that when she first confirmed her lesbian romance with the 74-year-old actor Taylor, several people told her not to go public. "My life choices are, um, unconventional," she told The EDIT in the cover story of their latest issue. "I'm with a much older person, and people find that totally fascinating and odd, and to me, it's the least interesting thing about me."

Paulson's moment of reckoning came when she scored her first Golden Globe award for Best Actress in a Limited Series for her role as Marcia Clark in Best Actress in 'The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story'.  Should she express her love for Holland before the entire world?

"It occurred to me, should I not do that? And then I thought, why would I not?" Paulson explained. "The fact I'm having this thought is wrong. But I had a moment of societal concern; wondering if, maybe, people who didn't know that about me would be like, wait, what? But then, you know, I did it anyway."
