@Group 5 minus 1@Greeneyedlady21,

My favorite movies are My fair lady, her cockney accent is hillarious and her metamorphosis amazing. Then Roman Holiday and Sabrina. She was also a UNICEF ambassador and very philanthropic. Got some nice replicas of her jewelry on a Princess cruise🌻

She looks beautiful in that photo. I'm sure some people here would want to kill me😉 but I had never seen Breakfast At Tiffany's so I rented it a few years ago. Couldn't even make it half way through, honestly I hated it. But she was lovely and very stylish.


I hate the movie but love her wardrobe in the movie, especially the gown at the beginning.

Wouldn't it be fun to dress up like that just once? It was by Givenchy.

Re: Audrey Hepburn - fashion icon

When Googling Audrey I found a Harper's Bazaar article about Reem Acra's spring 2018 bridal collection, inspired by Audrey and Breakfast at Tiffany's. The dresses are so beautiful. Here are a few. The third one just leaves me speechless, I am in love with that dress.

GreenEyedLady:  Yes, 'By gosh', 'You've got it'.  That's the one!  I used to have more ambition and did a lot of sewing of popular styles, many years ago.   Wish I had the ambition to sew one of those jumpers.  Love that style!  Easy, simple, yet very classic/classy look.

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

Audrey was excellent in The Nun Story.  She can wear just about anything on her petite, thin frame.  She is very attractive and has beautiful eyes.  I always liked her short hair cut.  She made short hair fashionable.  Cat Happy
