Keira Knightley stars as Georgiana, the Duchess of Devonshire in ‘The Dutchess shares about her fashion.

“What does it feel like to wear a corset?” asks Keira Knightley, looking amused.

The actress rolls her molasses-brown eyes and starts to gasp as though she’s choking on a fish bone.

“Your ribs are crushed in and you can’t get your breath. Oh, and if you get emotional, you just can’t calm down at all,” she says as her chest heaves.

She takes a deep breath and adds: “You can certainly understand why women were known as the weaker sex.”

“For me, fashion is all about fantasy and creating characters,” she says, echoing the aspirational allure of every Miu Miu or Gucci ad.

“It’s amazing to work with a costume designer to build someone from the ground up. You start with the socks.” Keira Knightley the Duchess
