See Audrey Hepburn’s Most Iconic Givenchy Looks
In her best moments both on- and off-screen, Audrey Hepburn was wearing Givenchy. She and Hubert de Givenchy met in their mid-20s, and their friendship and professional partnership spanned 40 years. He designed her first Oscars dress, the black satin gown she wears in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and a pink jersey dress for her wedding day.
“Givenchy’s creations always gave me a sense of security and confidence,” she once said, “and my work went more easily in the knowledge that I looked absolutely right. I felt the same at my private appearances. Givenchy’s outfits gave me ‘protection’ against strange situations and people. I felt so good in them.”
The book Audrey and Givenchy: A Fashion Love Affair, out April 12 from Running Press, traces their collaboration in Hollywood and in her personal life, showing timeless designs that have influenced fashion for decades.
