Lucy Hale was cast as Aria Montgomery in October 2009. Before her breakthrough role, she starred in the Lifetime original movie “Sorority Wars” and the 2008 feature “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2.”

The pilot was shot in Vancouver in December 2009 when Lucy Hale was 20-years-old. Born on June 14, 1989, in Memphis, Tennessee, she was just days away from turning 21 when the series premiered on June 8, 2010, on ABC Family.

The series ended on June 27, 2017, when Lucy Hale was 28-years-old. “Till Death Do Us Part,” the series finale of Pretty Little Liars, was the twentieth episode of the seventh season and the 160th overall.

“When people see you on TV every week, they just associate you with that character. They truly believe that I am Aria. People meet me on the street and assume that I’m really naïve and really young. I think people are always shocked to realize ‘Oh my god, this girl’s a woman, she’s 26 years old!’,” she said in an interview with V Magazine in August 2015.

At the 42nd People’s Choice Awards, the young actress was nominated for Favorite Cable TV Actress but lost to Sasha Alexander.

She did walk away with one award, however, as “PLL” won Favorite Cable TV Drama, beating out “Bates Motel,” “The Fosters,” “Rizzoli & Isles,” and “Suits.”

The then 26-year-old actress was a fan of vampy looks at the time, which she pulled out in full force at the Los Angeles awards show.

The “Privileged” star embraced gothic glamour in a black Self Portrait dress, which showed some skin behind its lace and corset-style ribbons.

The ankle-length dress featured a cleavage-baring lace-up neckline and a textured sheer-paneled skirt.

Lucy furthered the goth vibe by styling the frock with all-black accessories, including a pair of Vanessa Leu earrings, a matching ring, and a Lee Savage clutch.

The Wizards of Waverly Place actress wore her dark locks up in a chic Victorian-inspired braided updo and she added dark red lipstick for a sultry pop of color.
