Lucky Girl
September 20, 2010
If only I worked for Christie’s! At top, auction house employee Romilly Collins had the opportunity to model the original gown Audrey Hepburn wore in “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” prior to its December 2006 sale. Designed by Hepburn’s dear friend Hubert de Givenchy, the gown wound up selling for a hefty $923,187. If only I had an opportunity to slip on such cinematic history…and have it fit!

How fun is that? A fun opportunity with a sweet dress featured in a delightful movie, worn by a most generous and kind actress!

Luckyyyy. I think I would faint – if not from the excitement, then from trying to squeeze into that little thing! :)

Just remember Kate…..I could make you that dress!
Oh I know! My first thought was: Lucky gal! Second thought: That dress would never fit me. Sigh.
