Audrey Hepburn set many trends since she first hit the big screen in the fifties, right up until her death in 1993. Her look has been very important and its still influential today. Her wardrobe contained a few basic but timeless pieces -

The Audrey Essentials

A White Shirt - These became a big thing in the 50s after Audrey wore one in Roman Holiday. Yours should be plain, with no fancy stuff and for the full on Audrey look you should tie it at the waist.

A Pair of Flats - Another trend set by Audrey, she loved the way they minimised her height. They also went with anything, from her Capri pants to her full fifties skirts.

A Little Black Dress - First made famous by Audrey in Breakfast at Tiffany's. Your dress has to be plain, as it's your accessories that will make it into a fab outfit.

A Long Scarf - Make sure its a neutral colour as you'll want it to go with anything, then you an wear it every way possible.

Audrey Fashion Facts

Favoured Colours - Chic black and classic white. Audrey's favourite colour was said to have been pink but she barely ever wore it.

Favourite Designer - Givenchy of course

Key Item - There are many which could help you create just a little bit of Audrey's style but a neck scarf, like the one she wore in Roman Holiday (right) is a perfect and versatile little item and one that you can add your own personality to by picking out a colour and design you love.

Off-Duty Style - Audrey's favourite casual style was a pair of skinny pants, a turtle neck and some flat shoes - all in black. She wore this combination often as she went to and from the studios.
