Henson is clearly a fan of her character's clothing choices as she admitted to the magazine that she even incorporates her own threads into Cookie's closet.
As for her favorite outfit worn on Empire, she says it has to be the "Alaïa black catsuit, hands down," which she first revealed to ET in February, adding, "That's one of many."

Henson also admits that her personal style used to not be so far off from her character. "It took me a while to get on the chic bus," the 44-year-old actress quips. "I was coming from the era of Lil' Kim and Mary J. Blige, you know, ghetto fabulous. I came from nothing, I was deprived all my life, so when you get money, you go big!"
Cookie's character does hit pretty close to home, and not just because of her wardrobe. Henson says she based the outspoken leader of the Lyons family on her late father.

"If I ask you a question right now, the first thing that comes in your mind is the truth. But we've all be been trained to breathe, digest the question, and manipulate the answer. Cookie doesn't do that."
And that's why we love her!
