About this deal

Audrey runs viewers through a succession of key moments, from starvation as a child in the war to moving to London to become a ballet dancer. Hepburn’s arrival as a star with an Oscar-winning turn in Roman Holiday in 1953 and her subsequent success in Sabrina and Breakfast at Tiffany’s is fleshed out with archive footage and the contribution of friends and family, who keenly provide behind-the-scenes detail.

The best-kept secret about Audrey was that she was sad,” says her oldest granddaughter Emma Ferrer, who was born a year after her grandmother died. Audrey Hepburn is my favourite actor. She is so pretty, intensive, smart, funny and stylish! She is a real movie and a fashion icon. This version is very typical for her. A must have for all barbie collectors! Still, throughout her life, she was acutely aware of the power of her celebrity and the platform it gave her, be it in influencing fashion or during her humanitarian work. The latter, said Coan, was where Hepburn’s passion later in life offered a reprieve from the hurt she felt for so long. Audrey Hepburn™ as Sabrina doll fashion designed exclusively for the Silkstone® Barbie® doll body; not for use with other Barbie® dolls. The impact two difficult marriages had on her is a key section of the film. Hepburn met her first husband, actor Mel Ferrer, when they performed in a Broadway production of Ondine. The couple married in Switzerland in 1954, had a son – Sean Hepburn Ferrer, Emma’s father – and divorced 14 years later.George Peppard and Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s Photograph: Allstar/Paramount/Sportsphoto Ltd/Allstar The second outfit is from the Capucine Silkstone Barbie doll. Again it fits her nicely and the skirt looks a lot like her own - albeit in the stiffer fabric better suited to this shape. Here you can tell how her height makes the skirt look short. The shoes and jewellery are from On The Rise Elise Jolie from the Urban Safari line. This outfit reminds me a lot of Gianfranco Ferre's work at Dior.

Photograph: Paramount Pictures/Allstar The emotional high point of the film is when she reveals how much she struggled to find love,” said Coan, who studied hundreds of hours of archive footage and material to piece together a lesser-known side of Hepburn’s life. “Her second husband was photographed with 200 different women he was having affairs with, he was insanely adulterous, and she suffered at his hands,” said Coan, who interviewed a number of friends who knew the couple.

Twiggy was the first celeb to be cast in Barbie form in 1967. Since then, Mattel has created new Barbie versions of Jennifer Lopez, Elizabeth Taylor, Misty Copeland, and many more. Fans of Star Wars, Twilight, and even Jurassic World can have their very own Barbie-sized versions of their favorite characters. Our all-time classic icons have also gotten the Barbie treatment; Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable, and Vivien Leigh have all become collectible Barbies. And Cher even has multiple versions! (Mostly because there are so many versions of Cher). Throughout her career, Hepburn came to be seen as the epitome of elegance and grace. Born into European nobility in 1929 but devastated by the impact of the second world war as a child in the Netherlands, Hepburn kept a tight lid on her personal problems until her death in 1993 of cancer. These are the first Audrey dolls that Mattel releases after the sought after Breakfast At Tiffany's dolls. One is a Pink Label doll and one is a Silkstone Gold Label doll. Let's find out more about them. Hepburn went on to marry Italian psychiatrist Andrea Dotti in 1969, moved to Rome and had a second son, Luca, after suffering a series of miscarriages in the 1960s.
