Actually, Andrea dreamed of becoming a director, probably this desire arose in connection with her mother's work, which young de Matteo was inspired by throughout her childhood. But fate decreed otherwise.

After graduating from art school, Drea got into the cinema. At first, these were episodic roles in little-known independent films. Minute of fame overtook de Matteo auditioning for the series "The Sopranos". Drea came to audition for a fleeting role, but so impressed the producers with her talents, temperament and appearance that they decided to expand the role, for which they immediately approved the lively young actress.

However, even the presence of common children could not preserve the relationship of this couple: after long disagreements, Drea and Shooter divorced in 2013.

One of Andrea's hobbies was running her own vintage rock shop called Filth Mart. The showroom was located in Manhattan, co-owned by a close friend of the actress Michael Sports. Today, this store has ceased to exist, but Drea plans to open something similar in Los Angeles.

In addition to English, de Matteo is fluent in two foreign languages ​​- Italian and Spanish.

As in any Italian woman, real passions are raging in Andrei, which is certainly reflected in her style. We will consider a lot of different outfits, they all represent different trends in fashion, or even a frenzied cocktail of all sorts of styles.

The first look is a delightful evening gown that is an example of understated, elegant style. By the way, restraint is not the most characteristic feature of temperament and style in clothes, which Drea most often demonstrates to others. But this image is a pleasant exception. In addition, here are shown two passions of the actress, which we will meet in other outfits - "total black" and leather.

The next look is a little awkward at first glance. But from the second - you can see a number of stylish patterns. Firstly, such an ensemble is clearly composed in the military style, which today is again at the height of fashion. Secondly, the combination of colors and textures is impeccably observed here: indigo, khaki and dark brown perfectly complement each other, while leather, jeans and velvet create a stylish composition due to their contrast.

Another military look: the central element of the composition is a camouflage T-shirt. Dark skinny, a massive brown belt reminiscent of an army harness, a black cardigan. The image is both simple and full of all kinds of details. For example, pendants on chains that adorn the actress's neck make a very significant contribution to this outfit, completing it, making it more complete.

Knee boots tucked into jeans or trousers are one of the most common features in Dreia de Matteo's outfits. But what is uncharacteristic is the gentle notes. However, they are present in this outfit, and even fill the main motive. An airy white chiffon tunic decorated with pleats and ribbons is a very stylish and versatile piece. With her, as they say, both to the feast and to the world.

Drea, as a true lover of completely black outfits, knows how to make them with taste. They are never boring when performed by her. So, in this ensemble, the central figure is a long-sleeved tunic decorated with decorative embroidery. The applique is not noticeable at first glance, but upon closer examination, the unusual and mesmerizing beauty of this pattern is revealed.

Even an explosive and partly brutal girl, whose body is covered with numerous tattoos, is no stranger to experimenting with office style. For example, this ensemble, consisting of a pencil skirt, satin blouse and pumps, very much to face the actress de Matteo. True, Drea did not tie the tie that came with the blouse. Well, maybe this outfit only looks better this way!

Sometimes Drea even tries to create youthful images.And although the actress is already in her fifties, we must admit that she manages to look "like a girl." The outfit below is simple and cute. A swamp-gray dress with a deep neckline and a free pleated hem has a classic "girly" length - up to the knee. A black leather belt and thick tights of the same tone create the contrast necessary for any spectacular look. High-heeled suede ankle boots are matched to the dress.

Even in male-type trouser suits, Drea looks very feminine and seductive. Before us are two options for such an outfit: a classic black two-piece and a few fantasies ensemble of wide flared trousers with arrows, suspenders and a blue satin shirt with short sleeves. And although both outfits are purely borrowed "from a man's shoulder", in the performance of de Matteo they are more than women: the right shoes play for this - classic pointed pumps, and the high waistline of the marriage from the second image, and the deep cut of the jacket from the first , slightly exposing Drea's luxurious breasts.

Gleams of ethnic style often flicker in the outfits of the American actress. For example, this dress would be the most ordinary and boring, but the original ethnic ornament framing the line of the belt and neckline is its juicy highlight.

Drea loves to wear jeans and knows how to do it in different ways, it is always interesting. So, the first bow with jeans is a delicate composition of a white translucent shirt and gray-blue jeans. The second option is “total jeans”: the actress wears classic indigo jeans and a jacket with comfortable sneakers, simple T-shirts and her favorite leather bracelets. Stretch jeans Drea combines with short ankle boots with medium heels, stylish tops and original bags, as, for example, in the photo below. And Drea's worn, slightly flared hippie jeans can be easily worn with a bag in the same style, with cowboy boots and a vest borrowed from a classic three-piece suit. In this case, eclecticism is very appropriate.

One of the most dramatic looks of Drea's career is her gorgeous black dress. It combines the maximum length and shockingly extensive and large cuts, long cuts and a combination of dense velvet with translucent fabrics. In this image, the actress demonstrates incredible femininity: not only the dress, but also the hairstyle and makeup - everything radiates the incredible appeal and sensuality of the fatal beauty.

As a young mother, Drea dresses up a little differently. These are always inconspicuous, practical, but still stylish sets. By the way, Drea's daughter's outfits are also very cute and fashionable. Even on the beach, young Alabama seems to be ready for the appearance of annoying paparazzi - the bathing image is so well thought out and good that it would be suitable for the pages of a glossy magazine.
