I'd heard the story about Givenchy and Head years ago as a fashion student. Head was impolitic in her decision not to mention Givenchy but she was on solid legal ground. Her Paramount contract gave her sole credit for any film she worked on. However, it was said Hepburn was so outraged by Givenchy's lack of credit, and Head's willingness to give the impression that she designed all of Hepburn's clothes for Sabrina, that she promised Givenchy that he would be the primary designer for all of her subsequent films. And she kept that promise, with a few exceptions, for the next thirty years.

Thank you for clearing that up. Having met Edith Head at Universal, I've learned that having an Ego is not an option. While designing, for example the infamous Liz Taylor gown in A Place in The Sun, She had to work with the Studio's rules & demands, the director's vision & Taylor's personality. You might say that her strength was Juggling.

What’s interesting many directors had a view of what they wanted their stars to wear, and it’s the costume department to deliver the directors vision. I can not remember the name of one director, but he designed all of the leading lady’s dresses and the costume department had to make them how he wanted not how Edit Head wanted but she still got credit for the customs. I was going into fashion back in the 80’s when the company I was going to work for stated that all designs made at the company went to the head designer. I worked hard on my collection there was no way I was going to let some burnt out strumpet take credit for my designs, so told them thank you for the opportunity but I’ll keep my designs picked up my folder and walked out, I should have checked my folder before walking out that day because some how he had snagged two of my designs which turned up a year later in their shops. Because I did not have my original drawings there was nothing I could do about it. That’s when I changed job paths yet again and designed only for myself from then on. Fashion industry is too cut throat at times, just not worth the high blood pressure and long hours to have someone taking credit for your work for the next 5 years before you can get the chance to get your name on a label. The company went out of business in the 90’s when it was found that they were using sweat shops to turn out their garments, so a lucky escape for me really.

I worked in couture most of my life and privately I would dress clients and I can say that good shaped and fitted clothes can change people, give them power and confidence. One client I dressed for 20 years making everything from denim outfits to t-shirts to evening wear, suits and coats. Over the first months I saw her blossom, it was very rewarding. I worked for great houses as draper and head of workrooms and even worked with Karl, sometimes fitting up to 20 gowns onto models like Claudia Schiffer, Linda Evangelista, Naomi and Karen. It was the height of the 'top model' period. I then worked twice with Ines de la Fressange who was the muse of Karl at Chanel. The profession has changed so much with great houses prefering rappers and insta stars over real talent. Happy to be retired.

Sabrina is my favorite Audrey Hepburn film and it's so under appreciated. I always dreamed of making her ballgown for prom but it turns out I can't sew. I think it's worth noting that the dress she's wearing in the first seen while beautifully fitted would have been a juniors dress for the time.
@tesswalker7869 Жыл бұрын
While I don't know much about fashion, I think that choosing a "juniors" dress that would typically be worn by younger ladies/girls of the time lends itself to the storytelling. At this point in the film Sabrina is a character with a young naiveté. She has not had much exposure to the world and has maintained a childhood infatuation with the younger Laraby brother. As the film progresses she grows more mature and gives off a more sophisticated air. Her wardrobe then changes with her. It's cool to see how costumes promote visual stirytelling 😊. *edit: I wrote this while I was still very early in the video and realised I kind of just repeated what was said later in the video... Oops 😂

One of my favourite movie quotations comes from How to Steal a Million in 1966. Peter O’Toole says to Audrey in a scene in which he has to dress her down that this will give Givenchy a night off.

She is also beautifully attired in Charade which is epic!

I am most way through Givenchy's biography and it is really worth the read ! Balenciaga pushed him to go independant when he was in a bad contract and he even financed him, refusing to take the shares. Few people know that Balenciaga used to give much of his money away to the poor of his country and was a faithful friend to Givenchy all his life. He used to design for Schiaparelli until she felt that he was more popular than she was.

It’s not terrible surprising that Edith took credit for Givenchy costumes at all given her past history. If anyone doesn’t know when she trying to get her first job in Hollywood as a costume designer, she didn’t use her own fashion sketch’s but took one of her college’s stretch acted like they were hers. So she never really had a problem of taking credit from other peoples work from the beginning. Obviously she did prove that she did have exceptional talent over the years with her amazing outfits but wouldn’t say she’s a woman of honor either.

I was a professional costume designer for 45 years and like Miss Head said, you have to be a diplomat. If she was designing for a big star, she would show them 3 different versions of the same costume. They could turn down one or two but usually were afraid to turn down all three. Then she would combine the best parts of the three into one costume the star approved. She was a very smart business woman also. She turned some of her designs into home sewing patterns.

The original eye to eye is more of a tea stained colour and the fabric up close looks fragile. Also the original had a lovely puffy bolero like jacket. I can see why the jacket was not shown yet I would have liked to see it together and have her shed it, yet her entrance looks cool and confident as if she checked her coat - and showing of her shoulders and young delicacy. The lighting in the film thru the lens shows a sharp contrast for great effect in B&W and on display it is as memorable - the dress worn with the intended jacket would have been a showstopper at the opera in Paris for example as a winter choice.
