Audrey Hepburn (born 4 May 1929 – 20 January 1993) was a British actress, fashion icon, and humanitarian whose elegance and grace left an indelible mark on cinema and style. Rising to international fame with films such as Roman Holiday, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and My Fair Lady, she became one of Hollywood’s most beloved leading ladies, celebrated for her poise, charm, and timeless beauty. Beyond her illustrious film career, Hepburn dedicated much of her later life to humanitarian work with UNICEF, cementing her legacy as both a star and a symbol of compassion.

Her style remains one of the most referenced in fashion history—clean lines, minimalist silhouettes, and a natural sophistication that transcends decades. A hallmark of Hepburn’s look was her iconic rounded cat-eye sunglasses, most famously in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. This signature can be effortlessly channelled today through Pretavoir’s curated selection: the ultra-feminine Carolina Herrera CH0009/S 8079O, the bold and fashion-forward Celine CL4005IN 01N, or the urban contemporary chic of Oliver Peoples N.05 Sun OV5547SU 1731/P2 Polarised. Audrey Hepburn’s eyewear continues to inspire as much as her films—refined, feminine, and eternally chic.
