"I love Kate Winslet and Cate Blanchett," Olsen told the magazine. "I remember watching 'Holy Smoke' and thinking that it was so reassuring to see a young Kate doing something that was so bold in so many ways."
"I thought to myself, 'OK, so it doesn't destroy your career if you appear nude or take risks,' " she went on sharing. "Because not everyone in my family and group of friends thought it was the best idea to be naked in a movie."
She added, "There are actresses, young and old, who have decided never to do that and they become those examples people talk to you about, [but] there are times when I like to do it."
The "Oldboy" star concluded her remarks, "You want that voyeuristic quality, but I never feel I have to be nude - and you won't ever see me in a beauty shot in a bikini on a beach. That's a character I will never play."
In the spread, Olsen looked stunning in a variety of stuff from designers such as dresses by Etro and Emilio Pucci, necklaces by Isabel Marant, sandals by Valentino and other goodies by Matthew Williamson, Paul & Joe and Anna Sui.
