有一种超越爱情的情感叫做：奥黛丽·赫本和纪梵希赫本与纪梵希以朋友的身份相处了一生，他们之间的感情比平常的友谊更加浓烈，比爱情更加坚固。也许，爱并非一定是拥有或者占有，而是在人生的道路中相互扶持，一同进步。赫本与纪梵希的爱情是逾越了肉体层面的灵魂爱情，他们互为彼此的灵魂伴侣，用长达四十年的陪伴道出了爱情的模样。对他们而言，即使生活会欺骗你，但我永远在这里。因为陪伴是最长情的告白。

Just some of the reasons I love Audrey Hepburn's collaboration with the fashion designer Hubert de Givenchy. Famous for their 'little black dress', the two created so many other iconic looks that have changed the way we view fashion in film. To find out more, check out the other videos on my channel, including one about the dress at 13:46 which is now in my collection! You can also learn more or get in touch via my social media and website: Instagram: @henryjjwilkinson Website: www.henryjjwilkinson.com Thanks so much for watching! Let me know in the comments your favourite Audrey/Givenchy look. This video is purely for educational purposes, with no copyright infringement intended. The footage and photos featured belong to their respective owners.

This doco was like the little black dress....simple in its idea but overpowering in it's delivery....thank you so much....perfect.

Clean cut and simple.

The dresses did not add anything to Audrey Hepburn. She added a lot of elegance, beauty, and glamour to them. She looks wonderful in a simple skirt and shirt. She was the ultimates elegance and class. RIP

It’s the way the clothes never wore her. Everything she did added to her character. I don’t know how to explain why her movies left me with such an impression.
Absolutely impeccably conceived, written and spoken. How lucky would any of us be to have had the kind of beyond deeply loving friendship with anyone, let alone one the worlds greatest couturiers and one of the worlds most beloved superstar actresses and fashion icons. When I look at photos of the two of them I can literally see and feel how much they loved each other. How envious I am of them. And the world is an infinitely better place because of them……… They were both beauty and elegance and talent incarnate.

I wish the new "bosses" at Givenchy wouldn't have messed with the original scent of "L'INTERDIT" . It was a scent created for Audrey Hepburn, it was delicate, soft, subtle but they changed it to an overpowering floral scent. They've since come out with another version which is bit better but I still miss the original in it's clear rectangular bottle with gold cap and red label.

Her signature before L'INTERDET was FEMME by Rochas. When the nose behind FEMME Edmond Roudnitka found out he created a perfume just for her! I'm sure she wore Femme as well even after so. [‍] ? [] [‍] ? [] [‍] ? [] [‍] ?

@Mona Marlowe yes Femme (Rochas) was developed in 1944 and L'Interdit (Givenchy) in 1957. I know trends have to be followed in order to make money but the change was so drastic, it went from soft and powdery to "funeral" floral I.e. very strong. I heard that original might still be available at Harrods, UK. An excuse to go back to London once we can travel.

I am 63. In my junior high memory book , I chose Audrey as my main inspiration. I am also a thin, petite brunette and I could relate to her as opposed to the other well endowed stars of the day. She had grace, beauty, and elegance. Qualities to emulate admire, inspire and emulate. Who can match her today?

What made the supermodels so special was the continuation of this tradition with Versace, Alaïa, Chanel, etc...that they were inspirations, the clothes were designed on and for them, they knew how to get the best out of an outfit and show it off, and they also understood photography, how to pose, how to find the best angles and the best light. It was art. What began with Audrey and Givenchy resonated for several generations of designers and their muses. It’s sad that all that has gone now. Azzedine Alaïa blamed Karl Largerfeld and Anna Wintour for ruining fashion. I kind of half agree.

So beautifully done. I couldn’t stop tearing up. The narrator is superb, and beautiful. Audrey was my favourite. Her birthday shows on my phone each year, and I honor her life. Givenchy loved Audrey, and he accentuated her grace, and elegance. I miss Givenchy. French fashion designers are so lovely. I’m Italian.., so that is saying something.

I was confused why your video was recommended by YouTube since I only watch art history videos on this account, but my love of Audrey Hepburn wouldn’t let me skip over this video. Listening to your beautiful description of Givenchy’s design aesthetics reminded me that fashion is also art. This was a lovely video. Looking forward to watching your other videos

This was so enlightening. What a joy to understand this collaboration between the actress and fashion designer. It was a perfect match. There's great power in presenting a persona that is clear and polished to perfection. The two helped each other in spectacular ways. The narrator was also a great contributor to this informative posting.

Awesome take. I have yet to see any collaboration between a luxury designer and an actor (let along a protracted one) as iconic or impactful as Givenchy and Audrey. Even if anyone wore any of those pieces today, it would still work. The very definition of timeless.

There are many versions to their first encounter. The most logical I’ve read is Givenchy was in the middle of creating his collection. He pointed Audrey to a rack of the previous season’s collection and asked her to find something there. She chose 3 outfits that fit perfectly. et voila! History was made. The dinner story is pretty unlikely. Who eats dinner in the middle of creating a collection?

I have always loved Audrey Hepburn. Her impact was such that it’s like she’s never passed. I feel like she’s always been here. Watching her films it’s a great treat to see her in the perfect clothes. She wore them with a familiarity like they would be appropriate to wear to the corner grocery. I also got the impression that it was the real her on screen. A wonderfully sweet personality. A true beauty inside and out.

Thank you for sharing. I really didn't know much of Givenchy designed for Audrey Hepburn. All I can say is that her outfits were simple yet elegant and relatable to the general public. That the clothes don't make the individual, it is like money. It doesn't make you better, but rather makes you more of what you are. Audrey Hepburn was a true gift via the Big Silver Screen.

Henry, your video presentation & narration is excellent. Audrey Hepburn is my all-time favorite so I’ve read every book on her. It is true that she has created what makes her beautiful from what she considers as flaws, which means she is Creative and collaborating with Givenchy on the simple yet elegant look (my favorite) is like you said why it’s successful - combining both of their creativity.

One day I was sitting on the couch watching some classic movie on TCM. A scene came on where there was one of those private viewings of women's clothing, and I started to cry. My boyfriend was upstairs and he heard and came running down and asked me what was wrong... Through my tears I cried out, "Women really knew how to dress!" And then proceeded to sob even harder. Good times...

As a child I remember a relative wearing nothing but Balenciaga. She could afford it and she was a personal friend with the Spanish designer. My mother loved and wore only Chanel designs. As a small boy I just assumed she and my older sister bought their clothes off the rack like everyone else, little did I know...the fittings were events where mommy was away for a week or so.

Audrey Hepburn was perfectly exquisite and had the graceful figure of a prima ballerina. That combination with Givenchy was a match made in heaven. Introducing Sex and the City after showing the iconic scene from Breakfast at Tiffany's is a study in contrasts.

Henry you are so on point with this historical research, visuals and i complexly understand the collaboration between Audrey Hepburn + Givenchy. Vogue Magazine called “Breakfast At Tiffany’s the chicest film ever made.” Audrey only wore 5 outfits in Breakfast at Tiffany’s and the film made a huge fashion impact. Very well done. insert applause here

Thanks for an interesting, thoughtful look at my favorite actress. My favorite outfit-so hard to choose- and two films not mentioned, come to mind, Two for the Road, she's at her most waifish in blue jeans and a red sweater, and Robin and Marian- she startled everyone by appearing with a hairstyle NOT in vogue but she made it become fashionable. All her Breakfast at Tiffany's costumes are perennial favorites but my "if I could afford one outfit" that would be the black lace ensemble in How to Steal a Million! She startled the audience in the cinema not just Peter O'Toole- ! Givenchy took it ALL THE WAY THERE. Namaste. Thank you for giving me some respite in a muddle of depression and a lousy migraine, NO I SHOULDN'T BE ON A SCREEN- like Holly, I have sunglasses on- Breakfast at Tiffany's- let's band together so there is never a remake, it is PERFECT and still influential...

Celebrating a Fashion Love Affair: Givenchy and Audrey Hepburn's Timeless Simplicity

Few fashion partnerships have stood the test of time quite like the remarkable bond between Givenchy and Audrey Hepburn. Together, they crafted a legacy that continues to inspire and captivate fashion enthusiasts across the globe. Let's delve into the story of their enduring fashion love affair, characterized by one resounding attribute: Simplicity.

Givenchy, the renowned fashion house founded by Hubert de Givenchy, carved its path to success with a unique blend of elegance and refinement. Audrey Hepburn, the epitome of grace and timeless beauty, was the perfect muse to embody the essence of Givenchy's designs. Their partnership would span an incredible four decades, leaving an indelible mark on the world of fashion.

From their first collaboration in 1953, when Givenchy created the iconic black dress Audrey wore in the film "Sabrina," their creative synergy became apparent. Givenchy's designs were characterized by clean lines, understated elegance, and a sense of effortlessness. This harmonized perfectly with Audrey's natural charm and poise, setting the stage for an extraordinary fashion journey.

Together, they crafted numerous unforgettable moments. The iconic little black dress Audrey wore in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" became an emblem of timeless chicness. The delicate white gown she donned in "Funny Face" exuded ethereal beauty. With each collaboration, Givenchy and Audrey struck a delicate balance between fashion and art, creating garments that transcended trends and became eternally relevant.

Their love affair with simplicity went beyond the silver screen. Audrey Hepburn became an ambassador of the minimalist style, effortlessly incorporating Givenchy's designs into her personal wardrobe. Whether attending red carpet events or engaging in philanthropic endeavors, she radiated a unique blend of grace, sophistication, and simplicity that continues to inspire generations.

The enduring legacy of Givenchy and Audrey Hepburn serves as a testament to the power of simplicity in fashion. Their collaboration exemplified that true elegance lies not in excessive embellishments, but in the purity of design. Through their partnership, they showcased that simplicity has the ability to captivate and leave an indelible mark on the world of fashion.

Today, their influence can be witnessed in contemporary fashion trends, as designers continue to draw inspiration from Givenchy's timeless designs and Audrey Hepburn's effortless style. The legacy they created reminds us that simplicity is a force to be reckoned with, capable of transcending the confines of time and leaving an everlasting impression.

Let us celebrate the remarkable love affair between Givenchy and Audrey Hepburn, an enduring symbol of fashion's purest form. Their collaboration will forever remain a beacon of elegance, reminding us that in a world of constant change, simplicity has the power to endure.
