Channel Your Inner Audrey Hepburn

February 8, 2019

At some point in every girl’s life, she is introduced to the golden age of Hollywood glamour. And it wouldn’t be a proper introduction without Audrey Hepburn and the iconic roles she made her own. Breakfast At Tiffany’s, Sabrina, Roman Holiday and more have remained within the collections of so many fashion and film lovers decade after decade thanks to Hepburn’s endearing performances. In each of her films, she managed to look both down-to-earth and impossibly chic thanks to her personal style (and a little help from Edith Head and Hubert de Givenchy).

Even now more than half a century later, women across the world strive to emulate Audrey Hepburn’s classic style with focus on her films from the fifties and sixties. The great part is that we actually can take inspiration from her looks and even replicate them without looking dated! Hepburn’s outfits on and off the screen were always classic cuts and shades that have stood the test of time. Almost sixty years later you could wear her outfit from that infamous ‘Moon River’ scene in Breakfast At Tiffany’s and still look relevant and stylish.
