Wearing a satin Givenchy jumpsuit and a pearly white smile, actress Zoe Saldana posed for the cover of the September 2012 issue of Gotham magazine.The magazine asked the star of the upcoming movie “The Words” about the inspiration behind her sense of style.

“My grandmother and great-grandmother were seamstresses their whole lives, so when my grandmother moved to New York in the ’60s, she worked for design houses throughout the city,” Saldana told Gotham. “She really loved fabrics and textiles, so it was natural to my family. Fashion wasn’t like a religion to us, but it is in my ancestry. It was never about luxury; it was about art.”
