Icon


Stylish, glamorous, beautiful. All of these are used to describe perhaps her most famous role, that of Holliday (Holly) Golightly in Breakfast At Tiffany's. Audrey Hepburn was a sophisticated callgirl in the 1961 adaptation of Truman Capote's novella.
But at it's heart, the story is the classic boy-meets-girl that has preoccupied writers since we started dreaming up stories.
With her ridiculous cigarette holder, glam little black dresses and the 'mean reds' which can only be cured by a trip to the titular jewellery store. Holly may be a real phony, but she's one we all secretly want to be.
