Adult Breakfast at Tiffany's Holly Golightly Fancy Dress Costume

Product Information

The orange coat has four statement buttons and is fitted at the waist, with tie details in the back. Her iconic collection of black cocktail dresses by Hubert de Givenchy are accessorized with statement jewelry, pearls, and dramatic hats.

Although this is the same little black cocktail dress that she wore earlier, since her glam 1960s fashion accessories make it appear to be a completely different outfit, one would never know, so we’re categorizing this as a different outfit! The Kitten heel was designed for teenage girls, as the stepping “stone” between childhood Mary-Janes shoes and women’s high heels. The Breakfast at Tiffany's pajama scene opens with Audrey Hepburn’s character Holly Golightly being jarred awake by her door buzzer and her tabby purring.

She announces that she’s going to marry the millionaire who showed up at her party, the ninth richest man in America! The audience sees the dress again (this time with a campy hat and brilliant diamond earrings) when Holly learns her ex-husband Doc Golightly is in New York.

Paul asks how she can do this to her husband, and Holly Golightly says that the marriage was annulled ages ago, but that Doc Golightly won’t accept it!

She pairs this with an elegant black Chapeau du Matin hat, and a long light colored silk scarf hatband, black kitten pumps and a black bag.Do you prefer Holly Golightly evening dresses and costume jewelry looks, or her more casual looks, like her pajama costume and sleep mask? One of the reasons these looks are so legendary is because Audrey Hepburn teamed up with her favorite fashion designer, Hubert de Givenchy, to design the entire collection. Although Givenchy’s shorter style had been ruled out for the opening scene, Hepburn does eventually slip into a briefer black dress later in the film. Guess what other stylish A-List Old Hollywood stars turned down the role of Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffanys? Hubert De Givenchy (as in the founder of Givenchy, and also known for creating the little black dress) designed the outfits for Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast At Tiffany's, including her legendary black dress in the opening scenes.

It isn’t often a film’s most memorable moment comes in the first 30 seconds but Holly Golightly floating from a taxi in a long black dress, Danish in one hand, coffee in the other, to peer into the window of Tiffany’s is certainly among them.

Few and far between are the Halloween parties which do not feature at least on Holly Golightly while both Nicole Kidman and Shailene Woodley’s characters sported a version of this outfit at a Hepburn-themed party in 2017’s Big Little Lies.While the actual dresses used in the movie were likely destroyed after filming, three copies were made:one for the Givenchy archive, onecurrently on display at the Museo del Traje in Madrid and one gifted to Audrey Hepburn. In fact, if Christian Dior and Pierre Balmain hadn’t set a precedent with 1950’s Stage Fright and 1956’s And God Created Woman, chances are he may not have agreed at all. Even if we don’t have a famous French aristocrat and fashion designer managing our wardrobe, we can still pull off this stunning look, thanks to the style inspiration from Audrey Hepburn! Her chic outfits in the movie ranged from evening dresses, to cocktail dresses, casual outfits and trenchcoats. The older man reveals, to Paul’s shock, that Holly's real name is Lula Mae Barnes and that she is still married to him!
