""FUNNY FACE" ALSO FORMALIZED HEPBURN'S WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FRENCH COUTURIER HUBERT DE GIVENCHY."

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on assorted screen look of Audrey Hepburn as Jo Stockton in the classic romantic-comedy/musical "Funny Face" (1957), directed by Stanley Donen. Costume designs by Edith Head & Hubert de Givenchy. Paramount Pictures.

Resolution from largest to smallest: 2560x3840, 1600x2000, 1600x1946,1600x1595, 1553x2000, & 1400x2000.

"Dedicated fashion fans were always destined to fall for Stanley Donen’s film, a Cinderella story that charts Jo Stockton’s journey from shy bookseller to runway model following a fateful meeting with photographer Dick Avery. Insiders immediately recognised Kay Thompson’s Maggie Prescott as a thinly-veiled version of legendary magazine editor Diana Vreeland (just watch as she summons her underlings for an editorial meeting and her subsequent rendition of “Think Pink” – Miranda Priestly could never). And "Vogue" photographer Richard Avedon didn’t only inspire Fred Astaire’s character, he actually contributed to the film: the images that appear in the title sequence are his.

"Funny Face" also formalised Hepburn’s working relationship with the French couturier Hubert de Givenchy. The fashion-obsessed actor (she’s said to have splashed some of her "Roman Holiday" pay cheque on a Givenchy coat), first approached the bemused designer to create costumes for her role in "Sabrina" (1954), but too pressed for time, he let her choose from his collections instead. The film later snagged an Oscar for Best Costume Design, and when Edith Head neglected to mention Givenchy’s contribution in her acceptance speech, Hepburn insisted that the designer create all of her screen looks from then on… starting with "Funny Face." The result was a wardrobe that remains a fashion touchstone almost 70 years later.

Whisked to Paris from Greenwich Village to model the collections, the influence of the outfits Jo Stockton wears both on the runway and off in the musical can be spied everywhere from the Duchess of Sussex’s wedding dress, to Lily Collins’s "Emily in Paris" wardrobe, to Bella Hadid’s bedroom walls. Countless contemporary red-carpet looks have their roots in the dresses Jo modelled on screen, be it the the red strapless gown that featured on film posters, or the sleek ivory column dress overlaid with a pink cape, both finished with elegant elbow-length gloves."

-- BRITISH VOGUE, "How "Funny Face" Became the Ultimate Fashion Reference," by Kerry McDermott, March 2021 issue

We have so many in common that I would really love to have her here at @insidethemood ... and it’s better having 4 eyes looking around than just 2!

PÉTALES DOUCES _ After this #ValentinoHauteCouture #SpringSummer19 Collection by #PierpaoloPiccioli and after Mr. Piccioli started his tenure as the sole creative director chez #MaisonValentino, he sewed inclusivity patiently at all levels. All of them. One by one. In the last 3 years, he preached his philosophy of inclusivity by kind sharing and soft leading. He included his seamstresses and stylists. He included his models in their diversities. He included his mentors and founders @realMrValentino and @GiancarloGiammetti. All into the circle of humanity. To witness Mr. Garavani, the Emperor embracing Mr. Piccioli’s work as a swift alter creative ego, is a premiere in the world of fashion. Imagine, Cristóbal Balenciaga sitting front row witnessing a #couture collection of his eponymous house by .. #HubertdeGivenchy or #EmmanuelUngaro. That’s how meaningfully this flamboyant torch is burning at #Valentino today. Une première because it’s done viva voce not post mortem. In three years, Pierpaolo Piccioli just sequinned, with gusto and relevancy, a neo millennial modernisme treasuring the past while looking into the future. Today, the house, in my humble purview, holds the sceptre held by Christian @Dior, back in the heydays of couture. Why? Some collections aren’t revelations, exactly, but they burrow so deeply into old truths about fashion and couture and the poetry and tears of love, panache and luxe, they seem new anyway. That’s what @PpPiccioli is doing @MaisonValentino. Tranquil kindness wins. _ #ALESSANDROBERGA | L’ÉDITOR #PFW #HAUTECOUTURE #MODEDIPLOMATIQUE (at Valentino Fashion Group Showroom, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtHilfhgfyG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d0l93nh06p9n
