Hepburn in Sabrina


Audrey Hepburn, one of the undoubted fashion icons of the 20th century. Timelessly elegant and truly beautiful with an everlasting chic look her impression on the fashion world is still clearly felt today. Although there is one specific dress which totally identifies the early Hepburn look, THAT dress in Sabrina.

The dress completely demonstrates that iconic 50’s nipped waist and full skirted silhouette whilst its delicate detailing shows off the design skills of Givenchy as a couturier. Helping to also seal the idea of the 50’s as the “golden age of couture”.

A piece that can’t help but make you wonder, why oh why can we not dress up properly anymore?
