Happy birthday to one of the famous film and fashion icons in the world. Standing high and glowing during the golden age of Hollywood.
If you didn’t know the name but you must certainly be familiar with her face. Her peculiar yet stunning heart shaped face.
yes , this was taken from the famous movie of a book from Truman, Breakfast At Tifanny’s. which clearly…. her outfit and her hair and make up had become a symbol and too a lot of adaptations by celebrities, including Angelababy for her baby cafe franchises in hongkong and Taiwan. Imagine how, iconic she is when people not only the west, but east too knows her well.
Well tbh i didn’t even watched the movie, or even….. finish her Roman Holiday because i feel that black and white movies can be boring in times of their lines and , there are no subtitles or proper website that stream HQ movies of that era…
The "little black dress" from Breakfast at Tiffany's, designed by Givenchy, was sold at a Christie's auction on 5 December 2006 for £467,200, almost seven times its £70,000 pre-sale estimate. This was the highest price paid for a dress from a film, until it was surpassed by the $4.6 million paid in June 2011 for the Marilyn Monroe "subway dress" from The Seven Year Itch
Italian shoe designer Salvatore Ferragamo created a shoe for her and made her ambassador of his fashion house while honouring her in a 1999 exhibition dedicated to the actress titled Audrey Hepburn, a woman, the style. She exercised fashion in her lifetime and continues to influence fashion. Fashion experts affirmed that Hepburn's longevity as a style icon results from her sticking with a look that suited her: "clean lines, simple yet bold accessories, minimalist palette
"I never really became an actress - in the sense that when people ask me how I did it, my only answer is ‘I wouldn’t know’. I just walked on the set knowing my lines and took it from there." Audrey Hepburn
but indeed, the look in the eyes and how she dressed herself…. makes me captivated to her.
in her biography, she wasn’t only just an actress but a humanitarian as well, i mean seriously.. just how many actresses do we see out there not only devoted in making movies and too making miracles??? Besides Angie or Mother Theresa, we have Audrey too.
Audrey Hepburn May 4, 1929 - Jan 20, 1993
"I came out of the war thankful to be alive, aware that human relationships are the most important thing of all—far more than wealth, food, luxury, careers, or anything you can mention." - Audrey Hepburn
"She had her own personal style. She was not created by a studio. She didn’t need to be created. She simply was." -Linda McEwen
“She had a quality no other actress had: a curious combination of lady and pixie. She was a joy to work with—enormous talent and no ego." - Sidney Sheldon
“What is needed in order to really become a star is an extra element which God gives you or doesn’t give you. You’re born with it. You cannot learn it. God kissed Audrey Hepburn on the cheek and there she was." - Billy Wilder
Happy 85th birthday Audrey.
“Audrey gave more than she ever got. The whole world is going to miss her.” ― Steven Spielberg
“She shared her joy with friends, but kept her unhappy moments to herself.”―Hubert de Givenchy
over the years, Google had really contributed a search engine with her face on it.
