We can't imagine there are many people out there who would turn down the opportunity to help Emma Watson design a dress for Beauty and the Beast -- especially the glorious yellow dress Belle wears in that iconic dancing scene.

Well, it turns out Dan Stevens' 7-year-old daughter had exactly that chance.

"Emma Watson came over to our house for dinner," explains Stevens in the clip above.

"And so we're talking about the dress and the dress design, and Willow -- who was 5 at the time -- she kind of overheard the conversation, and we were talking away... and she nipped off next door, pen and paper, and came back about half an hour later with five different dress designs."

The best part? After talking the designs through with Watson, one of them was actually picked for the film.
