Childhood future Atris passed in Queens, as a teenager, Andrea lived with her family on the Upper East Side in Manhattan. Today, the actress also lives in New York.

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

After graduating from art school Drea went to the movies. At first they were bit parts in little-known independent films. A moment of glory overtook De Matteo at the audition for the TV series "Slan Clan". Drea came to try for a fleeting role, but was so amazed by the producers with her talents, temperament and appearance that they decided to expand the role to which the bold young actress immediately approved.

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

One of Andrea’s hobbies was to keep her own vintage rock-style clothing shop under the sign Filth Mart. The showroom was located in Manhattan, co-owner of it was a close friend of actress Michael Sports. Today this store has ceased to exist, but Drea plans to open something similar in Los Angeles.

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

As in any Italian, real passions are raging in Andrew, which is certainly reflected in her style. We consider a lot of different outfits, all of them are different trends in fashion, or even a mad cocktail of all sorts of styles.

The first image is a gorgeous evening dress, which is an example of discreet elegant style. By the way, restraint is not the most characteristic feature of temperament and style in clothes, which Drea often demonstrates to others. But this image is a pleasant exception. In addition, here are shown the two passions of the actress, which we will meet in other outfits - this is “total black” and skin.

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

Another image in the style of military: the central element of the composition is a T-shirt with a camouflage print. Dark skinny, a massive brown belt that resembles an army belt, a black cardigan. The image is both simple and full of all sorts of details. For example, pendants on chains, which adorn the neck of the actress, make a very significant contribution to this outfit, completing it, making it more complete.

Knee-high boots with jeans or trousers tucked in are one of the most frequently repeated features in Drey de Matteo's outfits. But what is uncharacteristic is the gentle notes. However, in this dress they are present, and even fill the main motive. Tunic of airy transparent white chiffon, decorated with pleats and ribbons, is a very stylish and versatile item. With her, as they say, in the feast and in the world.

Drea, as a true lover of clothes completely black, knows how to make them with taste. In her performance they are never boring. So, in this ensemble, a long-sleeve tunic decorated with decorative embroidery serves as the central figure. The application is not noticeable at first glance, but on closer examination, the unusual and fascinating beauty of this pattern opens.

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

Sometimes Drea even tries to create youth images. And although the actress has already exchanged the fifth dozen, it is necessary to recognize that she manages to look "like a girl." The outfit below is simple and quite cute. A bog-gray dress with a deep neckline and a free pleated hem has a classic “girlish” length - to the knee. The black leather belt of the same tone and dense tights create the necessary contrast for any effective image. Suede ankle boots with high heels are matched to the dress.

Even in male-type trouser suits, Drea looks very feminine and seductive. Before us are two options for this outfit: a classic black deuce and a few fantasies ensemble of wide flared trousers with arrows, suspenders and a blue satin short-sleeved shirt. And although both dresses are pure borrowing “from a man’s shoulder”, they are more than women’s in the performance of de Matteo: the right shoes also play on this - classic pointed shoes, and a high waistline for a marriage from the second image, and a deep cutout jacket from the first slightly revealing the luxurious chest of Drea.

Glimpses of ethnic style are often flashed in the clothes of an 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.

Wearing jeans Drea loves and knows how to do it in different ways, always interesting. So, the first bow with jeans - a gentle composition of a white translucent shirt and blue-gray jeans. The second option is “total jeans”: a classic indigo-colored jeans and jacket, the actress wears with comfortable sneakers, simple T-shirts and favorite leather bracelets. Stretch jeans Drea combines with short ankle boots on an average heel, stylish tops and original bags, such as, for example, in the photo below.Faded hippie hippie jeans Drea can easily wear with a bag in the same style, with cowboy boots and a vest borrowed from the classic three-piece suit. In this case, eclecticism is very appropriate.

One of the most spectacular images of Drea in her career is a luxurious black dress. It combines maximum length and outrageous, extensive and large cuts, long cuts and the 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 an incredible attractiveness and sensuality of the fatal beauty.

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