Audrey Hepburn was one of the most admired and emulated women of the twentieth century, and has become a timeless style icon. But her beauty was more than skin deep and for the first time, this style biography reveals the details made up her appeal. Drawing on original interviews with luminaries such as Hubert de Givenchy and Gregory Peck, and featuring memories of the star from the likes of Steven Spielberg and Ralph Lauren, Keogh's gorgeous book brings the real Audrey to life. With more than ninety colour and black and white photos, many of which have never been published before, as well as original designer sketches from Vera Wang, Monolo Blahnik and Alexander McQueen, Audrey Style gives measure to the grace, humour, intelligence and, of course, inimitable fashion finesse that was Audrey Hepburn.
