    FAMOUS FASHION ICON

    AUDREY HEPBURN
    AUDREY HEPBURN
    May 4/1929 - January 20/1993
    • A Belgian-born British actress and humanitarian.
    • She is best known for her roles in films such as Roman
    Holiday (1953), Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961), and My
    Fair Lady (1964).
    • Hepburn came to the world's attention with a
    breakout role in Roman Holiday for which she won
    The Best Actress Oscar in 1954
    • As one of the most beautiful women off screen.
    • Turned fashion into something that was desirable and
    changed the way women thought about their bodies.
    • Embellishing the dresses with hats and other
    accessories. This became her signature.
    • Her clean style sensibility and radiant grace have
    • Inspired the likes of Hubert de Givenchy,
    Salvatore Ferragamo and Isaac Mizrahi
    • All of whom have tried at some point to translate
    her spirit into their clothing and accessories.
    The Black Sheath
    • Audrey Hepburn style starts and ends with a black
    dress.
    • Black sheath dresses figured prominently in the
    Audrey Hepburn style lexicon.
    • We see echoes this Audrey Hepburn look in the
    bateau necklines and mid-calf length dresses worn
    by modern style icons like the royal family today.
    The Bold Pattern
    • A fashion icon walks in a fashion show.
    • The spiral-decked dress she wears in the photo below
    came courtesy of an Amsterdam fashion show she
    modeled in.
    • The curved collar and A-line waist could be spotted
    in outfits throughout her career.
    • Then there's her accessories: Elbow-length gloves
    were the Hepburn must-have for a touch of
    elegance.
    The Floral Dress
    • In 1954, Audrey Hepburn attended the 26th
    Academy Awards in a much more understated
    look
    • A tea-length floral dress with another bateau
    neckline. Hepburn accepted the Oscar for Best
    Actress in Roman Holiday that night.
    • An Audrey Hepburn style moment for the ages
    at the Academy Awards.
    The Sailor Shorts

    • With all the love Hepburn's Givenchy dresses


    receive, you could assume the actress wore them
    exclusively.
    • High-waist sailor shorts played a starring role in
    Hepburn's offscreen wardrobe.
    • The combination of her crisp shorts, plaid blouse,
    and raffia slides are easy summer dressing
    inspiration.
    • Even when she dressed casually, Hepburn always
    looked polished.
    The Travel Dress
    • In Audrey Hepburn's day, the tarmac was a
    runway and demanded more formal attire.
    • She touched down in London on this occasion in a
    long-sleeve travel dress, worn with gloves and
    pumps.
    • The woman's style was nothing if not consistent.
    • You wouldn't catch Audrey Hepburn in a laid-back
    look to travel .
    The Twisted Top

    • Suiting tops and ankle-grazing skirts were always


    Audrey Hepburn style staples.
    • But for this photoshoot, Hepburn chose an
    unexpected statement piece.
    • Her black skirt and ballet flats draw our eyes
    straight to her long-sleeve wrap top.
    • It's a playful choice in an otherwise buttoned-up
    outfit
    • An outfit that'd look at home on the streets of New
    York Fashion Week.
    • Audrey Hepburn style in one word: timeless.
    1953 - Filming Roman Holiday in
    Rome with co-star Gregory Peck.
    1954 - In a promotional portrait
    for Sabrina - the first film in which
    she worked with Hubert de
    Givenchy.
    1955 - In a strapless gown and
    beaded choker for a black tie
    event.
    LITTLE BLACK DRESS

    • The “little black dress” that Audrey Hepburn’s


    Holly Golightly wears in Breakfast at Tiffany’s is
    probably more well-known than the movie itself
    • one of the best-known movie costumes and dresses,
    period of all time
    • it’s actually kind of astonishing how simple the
    dress is.
    • That was the magic of it and clearly the simplicity
    was an asset since that dress helped birth the “little
    black dress” trend that continues to this day.
