Maitland recalls “I was asked to try on lingerie for (BMW) producers in the office. This happened more than once, as Rachel was the only character to consistently take off her clothes. An assistant would gather me from my dressing room and take me upstairs where I would be provided with a series of options, some playful and girlish, some so provocative I knew that Disney would never approve of them, but still I would try them on. I would strip down behind a curtain so thin I am sure they could see the silhouette of my naked form”.
