A stunning photographic compilation showcasing Audrey Hepburn’s iconic career in the 1950s—the decade that solidified her place as one of the world’s greatest stars in film and fashion.
Devoted to her most influential decade, Audrey: The 50s brings together in one volume the allure and elegance that made Audrey Hepburn the most iconic figure in modern fashion history. Photographed during the early days of her career, both on the sets of Roman Holiday, Sabrina, Funny Face, and other classic films, and in fashion photo shoots by top photographers who adored and immortalized her, these beautiful black-and-white and color images radiate with Audrey’s waifish charm, ethereal beauty, and effortless style.
Renowned author, curator and photographic preservationist David Wills has carefully selected this collection of two hundred museum-quality photos that capture Audrey in her prime as never before. Audrey: The 50s displays this star at her brightest, and brings her legacy into perfect focus.
Among the highlights:
David Wills is the author and photographic editor of Marilyn Monroe: Metamorphosis, as well as Veruschka, Ara Gallant, Audrey: The 60s, Hollywood in Kodachrome, Seventies Glamour, Marilyn: In the Flash, and The Cinematic Legacy of Frank Sinatra, and his exhibitions have received major profiles in the Los Angeles Times, New York Times, American Photo, and Vogue. He lives in California.
