Audrey Hepburn, the choice of elegance

Born in 1929 in Brussels, Audrey Hepburn was abandoned by her father at 6. Sent in an english boarding school, she immersed herself into classical dance, a school of grace and discipline which will leave a mark on her whole existence. Just after World War II, her career rose underneath Colette's support : in 1951, the french author chose this « treasure found on the beach » of Monte Carlo to incarnate her Gigi in Broadway. Since then, offers came tumbling out.
