Twilight's Kristen Stewart As A Fashion Trendsetter

Twilight's Kristen Stewart also known as Bella Swan, shared her thoughts on being a fashion trendsetter in her interview with EW.com. Although she had sported dresses designed by famous fashion designers on social events, Kristen revealed that the Twilighters wanted to have the clothes from her own closet. She explained that items that are similar to her clothes like jackets and sweatshirts have been sold out because they are more cheaper compared to her designer's outfits. For her, it's bizarre to be a trendsetter.
