Breakfast at Tiffany’s is one of the most iconic movies, and Audrey Hepburn‘s character, Holly Golightly, has one of fashion’s most emulated looks! It’s so easy to duplicate!
Every woman looks good in a little black dress, so we all own at least one, and that’s the centerpiece of this costume. I pulled this black Cynthia Rowley flared dress straight from my closet to start off the costume. Next, I pulled my hair up into a messy top chignon and added this $8 rhinestone tiara. Audrey Hepburn’s character in the movie wears tons of jewels, including a multi-strand pearl necklace with a brooch, so I duplicated the look with my own multi-strand pearl necklace and J.Crew jeweled drop necklace. Finally, I added a pair of my own Lanvin black sunglasses. Oh, and a cup of coffee and a croissant, à la Audrey! (You can add a coat and opera gloves at your leisure.)
