There is a feeling beyond love called Audrey Hepburn and givenchy
"Givenchy" for many people who pursue fashion, is familiar with the name, givenchy opened a new era of fashion, and he is also a legend, after the Paris world's fair at the age of 10 after the dress code, the hard work as an antique designer.
The reason why givenchy has become a top fashion brand is that it believes in itself and integrates its thoughts into its works. As givenchy said, "it is the skirt that should conform to the curve of the woman, not the woman that should conform to the skirt." In addition to his stylish empire and formidable prices, givenchy has always been around his half-century of cooperation with the legendary Audrey Hepburn, leading a century of fashion trends. Givenchy dressed up for the Audrey Hepburn project.
Audrey Hepburn loved givenchy's clothes before she knew him. She once bought a givenchy coat for part of her Roman holiday salary. For Hepburn and givenchy, thank you to Paramount pictures. Even before Roman holiday was finished, Paramount decided that Hepburn was one of the movie stars of the future and immediately signed her to her next film, dragon and phoenix.
Since "dragon and phoenix" was about Cinderella turning into a white swan, Paramount sent Hepburn to Paris to buy haute couture for the role. The meeting of two people can say is coincidence also can say is predestined. Hepburn was looking for Cristobal Balenciaga, but he didn't have time. When givenchy was asked to dress miss Hepburn, he thought it was the American actress Katharine Hepburn.
Givenchy once said, "Hepburn was able to show elegance even when she wore a potato bag." In fact, this is also a kind of modest statement, including givenchy's deep respect and love for Hepburn. In fact, his work, also really did make Hepburn shine. The black cocktail dress Hepburn wore with two small butterflies on her shoulder straps in the movie "dragon and phoenix" became an instant global hit.
It was givenchy's three outfits that made it such a success. The film won an Oscar for best costume and Hepburn became one of Hollywood's most popular stars. People were fascinated by the beauty of Hepburn, and also admired the beauty and elegance of the costumes in the film. But givenchy's name doesn't appear at the end of the movie because he's not the costume designer.
After years of partnership and friendship, the relationship between Audrey Hepburn and givenchy is a subject of intense debate, and the fact that givenchy never married makes his relationship even more complicated. Although belle's givenchy never married, Audrey Hepburn was married twice, to her lover, and gave birth to a son. There's only one reason why Audrey Hepburn and givenchy aren't together.
That is, the friendship between two people is indeed very pure, this feeling may be beyond love, perhaps the new word love, but this feeling and love is not to be confused. In addition to clothes, there is another witness to the two feelings, is givenchy "taboo" perfume. In 1957, givenchy concocted Hepburn's "forbidden" perfume. For the first three years, it was only used by Hepburn. From then on, Hepburn only used this perfume.
Hepburn suffered from cancer in her later years and wanted to go back to Switzerland to recuperate, but was unable to fly because of illness. Givenchy flew Hepburn back to Switzerland on a private jet. When Hepburn boarded the plane, she was greeted with flowers. Hepburn suddenly tears eyes, said: "only he, still remember my preference, I as a little girl to spoil."
When Hepburn realized she was leaving, she called givenchy to her side, pointed to the coat in the box and said, "you know what? Whenever you are sad, you put on this coat as I hold you." In his later years, givenchy told others that "Hepburn was a gift from god". Morna has looked back on the stories of givenchy and Hepburn many times, each time with new experiences and moving feelings. I believe that there is a relationship in the world, longer than marriage. Because know, so cherish, because of restraint, so forever.
