Audrey Hepburn

AUDREY HEPBURN

My dear Poufbunnies, Tessy must tell you all that her heart skips a beat whenever she sees a picture of Audrey Hepburn--and to see her in pettis, with her skirt showing their edges, well, that just makes her day!

A classy lady with a classy look!

1953

Very young
(The consensus of Poufy-opinion is that this photo is from her stage appearance in the West End London production of Gigi.)

Especially charming and candid photos.

We miss her so!

Stephen K. supplies this rare photo of the marvelous Audrey Hepburn on the set of Sabrina (1954), wearing the dress she made famous.

Audrey was wonderful in many ways and we all miss her. Coincidentally, Shelley found a poem on her 'beauty tips' which she wrote (read at her funeral), which will give an idea of the deep, kind soul she possessed:

For attractive lips?, speak words of kindness...
For lovely eyes,? seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone...
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed,
and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of
each of your arms.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands;
one for helping yourself and the other for helping others.
If you share this with another woman, something good will happen. You will boost another woman's self esteem, and she will know that you care about her.

Audrey Hepburn is not only one of Tessy's
idols and role models, but few ladies ever looked as good en bouffant as she!

Here she is at the beginning of her magnificent career!

Audrey's most "froufrou" film was Funny Face, - the wedding gown
was a delight!

As many of you know, Tessy places Audrey Hepburn on the highest rung of womanhood - she was a treasure.

Because of that, it disturbs her when Audrey is possibly represented as wearing blatant froufrou
in a picture which looks a bit looks suspicious,
but could be authentic (she IS dancing, and she DID wear more such in her younger years) - does anyPoufie know anything about this picture which could clarify this? Tessy certainly could be wrong.
