      @@farapipsqueek636 you're right. Grace was elegant, but more in the category of all-American classic beauty. Audrey, on the other hand, was more of a quirky, unconventional beauty who didn't fit the mold of the polished, voluptuous, classically pretty, male-oriented feminine sexiness that a majority of the popular actresses of the time aspired to fit into.

    Thanks for it. Great to see Audrey here. She would never imagine that her work in the movie would be an Academy Award winner performance! Love Audrey as Princess Ann and her chemistry with Gregory Peck and Eddie Albert. ''Roman Holiday'' is a masterpiece and one of my favorite movies ever! Love that movie so much. And it should have won Best Picture, by the way.

      The reason they have not done so is that she was accused of a long history of artistic plagiarism. She admitted to taking designs from several of her students at the design school and creating a portfolio, thus securing her first costume design job as a copyist. She went behind the back of designers hired to style actresses for films and had their credits pulled so only her name appeared, and thus, only she received credit, including oscar nominations and wins. The most famous being that Givenchy, then a new designer, was blind-sided by this move when he designed all of the clothes Audrey Hepburn wore in Sabrina only for Edith Head to take credit and the Oscar. Audrey Hepburn was so incensed by this that she refused to ever work with Edith Head directly again and made it part of her contract that she would only work with Givenchy and that he must be fully credited.

      Easy. You watch their movies, see appearances and interviews, and know about the contributions they've made that makes them more than just vapid actors doing things for their own publicity. Then, you look around at the current way people in that same role behave. And finally, Compare the two. See? It's simple.

    Yes, I am quite aware of body positivity and yes I know the infrastructure of my own body and its capabilities. And no I don't believe a slender body has more merits than that similar to Marilyn Monroe. Lastly, yes, I understand the circumstances through which it was attained. With that being, that waistline and those shoulders could make a dirty washclothes stitched together look good. Oh boy, do I wish I had the waist ratio.

      Edith Head designed the costumes. Givenchy was a consultant for her second film, Sabrina and subsequently became her designer. I love the costumes in Roman Holiday, largely because she inhabits them so simply; they do not overtake her as fashion/iconic pieces. Audrey's soul shines through in this film so beautifully, because the clothes are there to serve her character. It's so pure and so deeply touching.
