Glenn Close was perfect in this :D

I loved her as Cruella de Vil in this movie. She had the perfect blend of elegant and evil. Plus her black and white (and red) costumes were fantastic!

It's also a testament to her acting skills, because in person, she's actually very nice (or so I've read), and she's an animal rights activist. One thing she joked about was her costumes scared the puppy actors they were using for this film and the sequel.
