When we think of style icons, it is inevitable that Audrey Hepburn's name is one of the first to come to mind. She embodied elegant, feminine glamour and always made even the simplest outfits seem unique, choosing classic, clean contours that complemented her long, lithe frame. To this day, her style is one of the most imitated, as she managed to balance her look between demure femininity and a more boyish silhouette.
Her designer of choice was Hubert de Givenchy, and they collaborated on many films including Funny Face (1957), Love in the Afternoon (1957), Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961), Paris When It Sizzles (1963), Charade (1964), and How to Steal a Million (1966). But their lifelong partnership was first established when Givenchy was given the task of overseeing Hepburn's wardrobe in Sabrina (1954). The designer was initially relucant to take on the young actress, hoping he would instead be dressing the more famous Katharine Hepburn, however he was won over by Hepburn's unusual beauty and sense of style, and Audrey Hepburn thus became a muse for Givenchy's designs. This gorgeous dress she chose for Sabrina is an iconic symbol of their affiliation.
