Margot Robbie was nearly unrecognizable as Tonya Harding in 2017’s I, Tonya, but not just because on-set makeup artists transformed her with prosthetics, makeup, and a few very ’80s wigs. She also trained to look like one of the world’s former best skaters on the ice: Robbie actually skated for several hours a day, several days a week for five months (although she still couldn’t land the coveted triple axel, which is understandable). Robbie is far from the only actor to go to extreme lengths to prepare for a movie role in recent years; check out the list, including Christian Bale, Jamie Dornan, and more.

The Look: Curves Ahead. A deceptively easy dress cut with deft ruffles and swirls needs little else but a highly effective black stiletto to make a real impact.

The Girl: The actress Anne Hathaway, who stars in “The Dark Knight Rises,” at Grauman’s Chinese Theater in Hollywood.

The Details: Givenchy dress.
