Audrey Hepburn and Hubert de Givenchy, 1987.

Last night was the premiere episode of Bravo’s new reality show Dukes of Melrose. It focuses on Cameron Silver and Christos Garkinos the owners of LA-based designer vintage store Decades. On the premiere episode socialite Patricia Kennedy walked in to Decades with two 1987 Givenchy gowns with the intentions of selling each for no less than $10,000. One of them, described as “stained glass” immediately caught my attention. Well wouldn’t you know, it was the same design Audrey Hepburn wore in 1987. Above are two pictures of Audrey wearing the dress with good friend and couturier Hubert de Givenchy.  Below are two pictures from Decade’s blog featuring the Givenchy gown. For more information on this dress visit Decade’s blog.
