Jennifer Lawrence's 'American Hustle' Dress Was Covered in Dorito Dust

Once upon a time during the filming of American Hustle our imaginary bestie Jennifer Lawrence ate Doritos in her plunging white gown and got it covered in orange crumbs.

The tidbit was shared at Diane Von Furstenberg’s “Journey of a Dress” exhibit in Los Angeles by American Hustle costume designer Michael Wilkinson, who is super glad they made several copies of that infamous dress.

As he explained, "Jennifer Lawrence is a very, let’s say, raw and intuitive young lady, and she’s not against eating Doritos and snack food in her costume. So we were glad that we had a couple [backups]."

Wilkinson also revealed that the dress, made out of $3.99 a yard fabric was supposed to look like something Lawrence's character would have made.

"David really had it set in his mind that she would be wearing this dress that she just poured herself into," the designer recalled. "He wanted to see every single lump and bump. There had to be a sense of, ‘Is she going to fall out of it?’ It had this dangerous feeling to it, which matched her own dangerous mental landscape."

If you ask us they should have left the Dorito fingerprints on it, but that's just us.
