– We went through a lot
of different dresses before we landed on this one. Hi, I am Rachel McAdams. Today we are going to revisit some of my old costumes
from various films. Yes, the blue dress from “The Notebook.” This was the first thing
I think I wore on camera and it fit like a glove. We took a break over Christmas, and came back and shot the younger stuff, and Nick Cassavetes said, “Wouldn’t it be great
if you could like gain a little weight over Christmas, have a great time, so you’ll be a little more full figured when you come back as your younger self?” which I thought was a great idea, but then we had to do reshoots, so try to squeeze back into
that blue dress was not easy, and I remember the buttons
kind of like popping off whenever I would sit down [laughs].
