Helping the actress transform was makeup artistAlex Babsky, who told PEOPLE she “was completely enthusiastic about the project.”

“Ilovedcollaborating with Zoe on recreating these iconic movie looks; we hadn’t worked together before so I wasn’t sure how far she’d be open to taking the makeup for each shot, but she actively embraced each character’s look.”

To set the tone throughout the day, every time, Babsky said, “Zoe would step onto set in character, [photographer] Gavin Bond would cue up music from the movie we were recreating.”

The makeup artist added, “For me, the most exciting part of this project was adapting aspects of the original makeup in a way that worked for Zoe’s face and complexion, while retaining an overall feel of the original, iconic images.”
