Speaking with Extra, Oprah said the gown took "600 hours" to make.

“Three women . . . It’s like a work of art," she told Extra. "I am gonna hate to take it off, I’m gonna need three people to take it off.”

Winfrey has worn a plethora of purple looks while promoting The Color Purple. Of sporting the hue during the press tour, she joked to PEOPLE, “I'm doing for purple what Barbie did for pink!”

In her PEOPLE cover story, Winfrey elaborated on her approach to maintaining a healthy weight, sharing that it includes regular exercise and the use of a weight-loss medication.

"I eat my last meal at 4 o’clock, drink a gallon of water a day, and use the WeightWatchers principles of counting points. I had an awareness of [weight-loss] medications, but felt I had to prove I had the willpower to do it. I now no longer feel that way."

The original film premiered in 1985 with Oprah starring as Sofia. The star was nominated for an Academy Award for her breakout performance in it, for which she took home a $35,000 paycheck.

"Doing the [original] film was the most important thing that had ever happened to me and continues to be a central theme in my life," Winfrey told PEOPLE.

She added that the movie — which was nominated for 11 total Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Actress for Whoopi Goldberg — "is the reason I ended up owning my own show, why I learned to surrender, do the hardest work and then let that work go."

Winfrey did consider making a cameo in the 2023 movie, but ultimately chose not to.
