Woman to remember

Maybe in the day-to-day life of the personalities that we still follow with the same interest, that we read about with pride and admiration in books about their lives there is not the same extravagance as on the red carpet, but one thing is sure: whether they were on the red carpet, in the kitchen or in the bed, they were unforgettable women. Some because of their elegance, others because of their personality or statute. However, no matter if we talk about Katherine Hepburn or Grace Kelly, behind each of them there is a fascinating world in which everyone of us would like to live in at least once in a lifetime.

 

Princess Diana

Princess Diana’s evolution from a shy young lady to a fashion icon happened in front of our eyes. Her first appearance armin arm with Prince Charles evinced simplicity. Also her wedding dress can be an example for her lack of style: a voluminous dress, with a long train that became legendary. However, Diana earned peoples’ trust and so she did with her wardrobe.Actually, the moment that announced her transformation was whensheworna one shoulder black dress signed Christina Stambolian. Since then, Diana showed elegance and refinement, preferring great designers such as Valentino, Versace, Ungaro or Chanel.

 

Audrey Hepburn

Audrey was the icon of elegance. Who could forget her style a bit masculine adopted in the role of Princess Ann in “Roman Holiday”? Or, of course, her oversized sunglasses worn by Holly Golightly and her little black dress from “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”. With a thin boyish body and a pixie hairstyle, her stylistic choiceswere always based on elegance and not on sex-appeal. Her silhouette and posture when wearing the Givenchy dress form “Brakfast at Tiffany’s” made history  and broke fresh for a new generation of LBD.

 

Grace Kelly

Grace Kelly had a naturalelegance which shone through and from the small screen. She had a fresh innocence which gained approval in the 50s and an innate sensibility for style. Kelly was attracted by designers such as Balenciaga, Yves Saint Laurent, Dior and Givenchy. Kelly had many fashion defining moments. Her international icon status brought her homage by the fashion house Hermes when the famous Kelly bag was created. Nowadays, people are willing to pay £25k to get one.

 

Maylin Monroe

Marylin became synonym with sensuality due to her high sex-appeal. The pop diva of the XXth century made herself known through movies like “Niagara”, “Love nest”, “How to marry a millionaire” or “Seven Years Itch” where she impressed the public by her perfect blonde look and her appetizing body. However, from all her parts, the one that persists is the white dress worn in the subway scene of the movie “Seven Years Itch”. The famous dress was put up to auction in Beverly Hills and it was sold for 2 million dollars.

 

Katherine Hepburn

She wore trousers. Literally! Neither Hepburn’s body (tall, thin and boyish), nor her attitude wereconform to the sexy bomb aspect from Hollywood. Without extravagant hairstyles and seldom with makeup, Hepburn emanated charm at every step. Even though she didn’t have an elegant, refinedstyle, her attitude made up for it. Power, confidence and, more important, a brand of less sex-appeal, these are the main features that make Katherine an unforgettable women.
