Style, grace, elegance… these are the words that come to mind when Audrey Hepburn is mentioned. Active during the Golden Age of Hollywood, Hepburn is the embodiment of all that was sophisticated and glamourous of her era.

She’s been recognized as both a film and fashion icon: ranked by the American Film Institute as the third-greatest female screen legend in Golden Age Hollywood, in addition to being inducted into the International Best Dressed List Hall of Fame.

Her poise must come from her ballet studies as a child and then later her performances as a chorus girl in West End musical theatre productions. She was destined to become an icon.
