Audrey Hepburn will forever be remembered as an icon of style and beauty. Her looks continue to inspire not only film fans but also all those interested in fashion. Who can forget her little black dress, created by Hubert de Givenchy for the film “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” or the dress from “Sabrina”? In cinema as well as in everyday life, the Oscar winner has influenced the style of several generations. Her outfits remain relevant even today.

Audrey Hepburn inspires throughout the year, but her summer looks deserve special attention. On holiday in Antibes, the actress wore large sunglasses, and for boat trips, she chose wide-brimmed hats with unusual shapes. During the filming of “Roman Holiday,” she and Gregory Peck enjoyed gelato, dressed in a skirt with a defined waist. In her free time with her husband Mel Ferrer, the actress often wore plaid capri pants. Fortunately, numerous photographs preserve Audrey Hepburn’s various summer ensembles from her youth.
Many of these pictures were taken at the famous Bürgenstock Resort in Lucerne, Switzerland. In 1954, Audrey Hepburn married Mel Ferrer in the resort’s chapel. Later, she settled in Villa Bethania, a house also belonging to the resort complex. The actress later moved to the Swiss town of Tolochenaz. There, she lived in an 18th-century farmhouse called La Paisible. Vogue photographed this house for the April 1961 issue of the magazine. When Audrey Hepburn was not filming or attending promotional events in Hollywood, she played golf, worked in the garden, and relaxed amidst the Swiss Alps.
