Description

As perhaps the most iconic figure in modern fashion history, Audrey Hepburn has been the subject of many style guides-but none like this. Devoted to her most influential decade, Audrey: The 60s showcases Audrey at the pinnacle of her career, both on the film set and in fashion photo shoots. From Breakfast at Tiffanys to Vogue, Audreys landmark style was everywhere-and still is.

Renowned curator and preservationist David Wills brings together the definitive selection of images of Audrey in her prime: from the films that made her famous to the photographers who worshipped and ultimately immortalized her. With over two hundred full-bleed photos, reproduced to the highest standards, Audrey:The60s brings her legacy into perfect focus.
