Audrey was a lifelong friend and muse of Hubert de Givenchy, the French fashion designer, and so it came as no surprise that he designed her wedding dress, not only in real life for her second marriage in 1969, but also for her on-screen nuptials.
Her dress in the 1957 film Funny Face is particularly similar to the Givenchy gown — designed by the fashion house's new artistic director, Clare Waight Keller — worn by Meghan for her wedding last month.
Both were classic Givenchy — made from figure-hugging cream silk, with flattering boat-shaped necklines and minimal adornment.
And, of course, Meghan's Ascot outfit this week of a Givenchy shirt-dress with black-and-white hat sparked comparisons with Audrey's racecourse outfit from My Fair Lady. Read more from The Daily Mail.
