This year's Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue features some of the most dazzling starlets in Hollywood. The '20s-inspired cover includes Rooney Mara, Mia Wasikowska, Jennifer Lawrence, Jessica Chastain, Elizabeth Olsen, Adepero Oduye, Shailene Woodley, Paula Patton, Felicity Jones, Lily Collins and Brit Marling all dolled up in vintage, satiny, pastel-hued gowns.

Sitting center-stage on the cover is Lawrence in a silver gown alongside Mara, Chastain and Wasikowska. Shot by famed fashion photographer Mario Testino, the shoot was meant to pay homage to Art Deco and Jazz Age designs.

In behind-the-scenes footage, Mara confesses to having a teenage crush on Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke and owns up to a "guilty pleasure" love for "Zoolander." "I would watch playback sometimes if it would be helpful," she later says about her Oscar-nominated work in "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo," noting that she has yet to see the film in its entirety. Lawrence also opened up on the set of the shoot talking about her own teen idols. "When I was little," she recalled, "I guess '90s era, I had such a big crush on Justin Timberlake from *NSYNC that I almost threw up." These days the "Hunger Games" actress' idols include the Coen Brothers, Renée Zellweger and Tommy Lee Jones.

In other VF news, Kristen Stewart was spotted wearing some really high-end couture in Paris for her own shoot for the magazine. The spread, also shot by Testino, will appear in an issue later this year. In photos on E! News, the "Snow White" actress looked like the fairest of them all in her blue-and-black tulle and feather-adorned ball gown. She topped off the look with a black geometric-style fascinator.
