The dress is drawn with glittering surface embellishment on the bodice and skirt; however, this design differs from the scoop neckline and calf-length hemline worn in the film. Edith's design is a sophisticated evening gown, featuring a bateau neckline with an ankle-length hem. The sketch is signed by Edith Head at the bottom left corner. Audrey wears a pink dress upon returning from an evening with José, soon to find out her brother Fred is dead and going into a traumatic physical fit of grief. The bright color and embellished design was a contrast to her character’s previous outfits of understated elegance.This sketch was likely a conceptual sketch for Audrey as Holly Golightly, the dress in the film is cocktail length and designed by French couturier Hubert de Givenchy. Breakfast at Tiffany’s was a film that defined Audrey’s timeless style and the refined elegance that was Givenchy’s signature. The pink dress showcases architectural construction with a fitted princess-seamed bodice and a gathered skirt that is as buoyant as Audrey’s charming smile. The facet foil back crystals, the guipure fan tassels, and the vibrant pink add up to a defining moment in fashion where women were feminine, sleek, distinct, and articulate in how they dressed.The design worn in the film was a part of Givenchy’s 1960 fall show with well-known clientele Lee Radziwill and model Capucine wearing the embellished design in black. Audrey asked if the design could be made in pink specifically for the film, only two of these pink design confections were made. A rare design that showcases the artistry of French haute couture and the beautiful Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly. Audrey’s Givenchy wardrobes while they evolved in each film collaboration have become a timeless reference to elegance and glamour in both film and fashion. This lot comes with a DVD/Blu-Ray of the film.
