Audrey Hepburn服装将在英国的伦敦Kerry Taylor拍卖行拍卖,有关奥黛丽·赫本的48件拍品,除了礼服,还包括帽子、信件和旧照片。为了向热心于慈善的赫本致敬,Tanja将把拍卖所得的 50%捐给“奥黛丽·赫本儿童基金会”(Audrey Hepburn Children’s Fund)。
Audrey Hepburn fans got a sneak peak this week at dozens of garments and personal items that formerly belonged to the movie star. They'll hit the auction block next week, so let's take a look before they're gone.
A Givenchy black lace dress that Hepburn wore in "How to Steal a Million" and a demure ivory wedding gown that never made it down the aisle are among the items.
The fans, fashionistas, and those looking to score a slice of film history were given the preview of the collection in Paris before the December 8th sale in London.
Kerry Taylor, auctioneer, said, "For her, what was important was not decoration and lots of embellishment. She liked very simple things. Less was always more for Audrey."
Star lots include an Yves Saint Laurent empire waisted gown in white cotton that she wore to her son Luca's 1970 christening, and an abbreviated, long-sleeve Valentino Haute Couture dress in ivory silk and lace.
Another ivory wedding gown, made for Hepburn by the Rome-based Fontana sisters, is expected to fetch 8,000-12,000 pounds. But Hepburn herself didn't wear it down the aisle.
And then there's the Givenchy: pared-down cocktail dresses, buttery silk tops, ladylike coats and dramatic sweeping gowns made by legendary French couturier for Hepburn, his muse.
A Givenchy cocktail dress and cropped jacket were what Hepburn wore in the 1966 romantic comedy "How to Steal a Million."
Most of the lots come from the closets of a long-time friend of the actress.
Half the proceeds from the sale are to go to the Audrey Hepburn Children's Fund and UNICEF.
