Audrey Hepburn was born 1929 in Brussels and died 1993 in Switzerland. She was a ballet dancer for many years before playing several English movies, being a leading role in Gigi on Brodway, and writing herself a legend on American movies that soon become classic and never out of style. Breakfast at Tiffany, Roman Holiday, and Funny Face just to name a few.
It wasn't until a year ago I actually watch Audrey Hepburn's movie. But the rumor of her elegance and everlasting style, echoed long before I saw the movies. Her simple monochromatic outfits, dark hair, flat shoes, and slender figure of a ballet dancer steal the moment in a modest way. She rings a tender bell with her arrival instead of a drum and loud trumpet sound as Marilyn Monroe does. She's cheeky and sweet instead of sexy. Her natural charm does it. Her wit, and braveness makes me (and everyone else) watch her movies over and over and over again. The idea of keeping the shoes in the refrigerator, telephone in a box, running away from royal protocols and being a stubborn smart model thrill me.
Despite her glamorous character as supermodel, princess, and socialite, she keeps it low in the real life. In the late 60s, she made this decision of leaving the glamorous star world and become an humanitarian activist for Africa. There is something about this girl and people usually address it as elegance.
