Sea of Stories

Book description

Audrey Hepburn’s trademark style—elegant, graceful, and yet attainable—revolutionized the fashion world during her era, and continues to influence and inspire designers and fashionable women around the world today. The little black dress, the turtleneck, the Capri pant, and the ballet flat are everyday items in modern-day wardrobes, with Audrey’s influence surely to thank for their longevity. Though much has been written about Audrey, What Would Audrey Wear? focuses exclusively on her outfits, both on film and in life, to reveal the elements that made up Audrey’s signature looks. Taking its inspiration from high-fashion magazines of Audrey’s era, this stunningly designed volume is sure to be welcomed by Audrey fans. A gorgeous and vast selection of photographs from the early 1950s when she was a young ingénue through her elegant older years give Audrey aficionados much to pore over: included are candid, charming images from her daily life, glamorous shots taken at parties and events, and of course, iconic images from her films. Each outfit is described in detail, with commentary on how it came together and what makes it work so well. Quotes from Audrey herself and fashion notes from the designers she worked with offer extra insight. Part style guide, part look book, and part inspiration, What Would Audrey Wear? answers the question so often asked by women of style. Includes 4 colour photographs from the Everett Collection. The Everett Collection was established in 1990 by Morris Everett, Jr., and Ron Harvey. The firm\'s origins date back to 1961 when Mr. Everett began collecting stills from virtually every film ever made. Over time his collection expanded to include posters and lobby cards, and by the late 1980s he had amassed one of the world\'s largest private collections of entertainment photography. Today, the Everett Collection is one of the leading providers of entertainment visual content worldwide.
