I stumbled on this photo years before I’d seen Two for the Road (1967, dir. Stanley Donen) and realized it was taken on the set of that movie. At the time, I was in awe of Audrey Hepburn’s timeless style, more specifically how she wore those loafers with socks. Still am. But after I saw Two for the Road, I found out Hepburn briefly left the film because she was pregnant. Stanley Donen considered re-casting her with Julie Christie, but then Audrey Hepburn returned to the movie after she had a miscarriage. This story made me look at this photo so differently. You never know what’s going on in someone’s life, how the work is touched by what someone is going through, or how someone’s style is influenced by what they’re experiencing in their body. I found the photo and her style all the more compelling. H -- source link
