Zoe Saldana loves New York style

Zoe Saldana, the Avatar actress, is a huge fan of New York and the style of it’s inhabitants.

Zoe revealed that her absolute pet peeve when it comes to fashion is women that try too hard – something that she doesn’t think is a part of NYC style.

The actress said: “I have this love affair with New York that I just can’t quit, and that applies to New Yorkers’ style too. I can’t stand when people get lost in clothes because they are trying to impress. We get that a lot in Los Angeles. You need to wear your clothes, your clothes can’t wear you. New Yorkers understand that.”

Zoe, who herself in the past has launched her own clothing line with her sisters, refuses to buy in to the culture of label-mania and would rather choose clothes that adhere to her own style sensibilities.

She said: “Five years ago my sisters and I created our own brand, called Arasmaci, but we actually produced no more than a few T-shirts and some accessories because I became overwhelmed by ‘Avatar’. For many people, including a lot of actresses, fashion is all about brand names, logos, status symbols, but for me, it’s an art form.”
