Just yesterday, we brought you the first first look at Jennifer Lawrence (Winter’s Bone, X-Men: First Class) as Katniss Everdeen in the Gary Ross (Pleasantville) directed big-screen adaptation of the first novel in Suzanne Collins‘ best selling trilogy, The Hunger Games.
Now, thanks to fine folks over at TheFilmStage we have a look inside the EW issue that featured that cover, which gives us a better look at the full Katniss costume and the bow and a head-to-toe look at the arrow toting heroine of the story. Check it out below!

Katniss’ Costume: When it comes to the dazzling attire Katniss will wear when she’s interviewed in front of the Capital audience, Lawrence couldn’t care less. But she was plenty vocal on the subject of her arena outfit – the survivalist-style clothing (seen here) that she wears while fighting for her life. “I’m going to be doing a lot of my own stunts,” says Lawrence. “I want to make sure I can run and jump and climb. I’ve been driving [the costume designer] crazy with the boots: ‘You have to fix this here, you have to make it lighter here, you have to open it up here.’ The dresses I don’t care about them. Just put them on me. It’s like Oscar season again.”
“I told Gary, ‘I totally understand if you don’t hire me, but please remember that after Katniss shoots a bow and kills someone, her face cannot be badass. It has to be broken.”
The Hunger Games is slated to hit theaters on March 23rd, 2012.
