When people think of the actress and UNICEF goodwill ambassador Audrey Hepburn, they think of grace, class, elegance, and style. Audrey knew what looked good on her, and what didn't, and as Audrey's son Sean Hepburn Ferrer explained, his mother's style was "the extension of an inner beauty reinforced by a life of discipline, respect for the other, and hope in humanity For many women, capturing Audrey's style continues to be the pinnacle of timeless grace and elegance. If you'd like to adapt some of your wardrobe and fashion style with an Audrey Hepburn touch, here are some suggestions to help you. From an early age, Audrey had a clear mind as to what looked good on her and she stayed true to her own style all her life, even arguing gently but stubbornly with those who saw fit to request otherwise.[2] She had a dancer's eye for self-knowledge, knowing both her finer points and her lesser ones.[3] She wasn't afraid to acknowledge what didn't work for her as much as what did. And it's good for you too to find your faults, because we all have them. But also find at least one thing about you that you really want to accentuate and love about yourself. With Audrey it was her daunting 22 inch waist.[4] She wore clothing cinched at the waist to show it off, and enhancing is what you should do with whatever you like about your body. Audrey never liked things to be complicated, including fashion and "less is more" was her key belief.[7] Indeed, she once said: "Boil it all down to what counts the most: What is the essence of what you are trying to do, what is the most important thing? Things only get complicated when you try to address too many issues."[8] Her match with Givenchy was a reflection of her preference for simple clothing and even today Givenchy clothing is known for its elegance, simplicity, and line.[9] Think "elegant simplicity" when putting your look together. There is no need to be swayed by trends when you're already certain of your personal style. Audrey wasn't swayed by trends and indeed, her sense of timelessness came from her belief in quality before all else. Sean Hepburn Ferrer said that the reason Audrey has remained an icon to this day is because she stayed with her look all her life once she found it and didn't reinvent herself every season.[10] While Audrey loved fashion, she used it as a tool to complement her looks, rather than letting fashion use her. So in your own case, stick with the classics that you know work for you and perhaps give a glance at trends by the simple addition of a colored brooch or a scarf that reflects the color scheme of the day but no more – use seasonal changes as the accessory, not as an enslavement to trends. The exception to this rule is where a trend happens to coincide with your personal style and does look good on you; in that case, buy up! Audrey was no stranger to avoiding trends. Not only did she not jump into the latest fashion trends but she was also somewhat unique for her time. Up against icons like Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield, who were buxom and blond, Audrey was gamine, waif, thin, brunette, and decidedly flat-chested.[11] Her response was to make the most of what she had and to accentuate it!
