Lace for Audrey

This is my contribution for this week theme at Take a Word (please, enlarge to see the details). More than an icon of beauty, Audrey Hepburn was a fashion icon. She could look boyish or extremely feminine depending on the photographer's intention. For this piece I was looking for her princess persona. The bigger photo is from the stage play Gigi (1961) and the smaller is one of her shoots for the movie My Fair Lady (1964).

Background: HP design; Lace Frame: Beth Rimmer; Hepburn photos: Doctor Macro; queen's anne lace frame: mine; Lace corner: mine.

  3. Your collage is exquisite! I loved any movie Audrey Hepburn was in. I saw one of her movies, though, called "Wait Until Dark," and it scared me so much I had to sleep with the lights on.
