Description

Design sketch by Givenchy—"Breakfast at Tiffany's, Audrey"

Original felt tip design sketch of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's, showing her in her iconic black dress and holding a long cigarette, accomplished in gold ink and black felt tip by Givenchy on a white 5.75 x 8.75 cardstock sheet, signed and inscribed in black felt tip, "To Patrick Gruber,—Very sincerely—Hubert de Givenchy," who adds "Breakfast at Tiffany's, Audrey." In fine condition, with minor smudging due to the slick nature of the card. An exquisite original sketch which is unmistakably the 'little black dress' Givenchy designed for actress Audrey Hepburn in the classic 1961 romantic comedy—the legendary Breakfast at Tiffany's dress has been voted the most iconic movie dress in the history of cinema. An extremely scarce piece of both movie and fashion history.
