While Watching "The Girlfriend Experience"...


I realized that the Audrey Hepburn look from "Breakfast at Tiffany's" is perhaps the most overused styling done for female actresses of all time.
Hair up in a bun, clean cut black dress and shades are the epitome of classy simplicity.
Of course Sasha Grey plays an escort in this movie and Holly Golightly was one as well, even if the movie de-sexuallizes her too much.
But beyond this too specific homage from Steven Soderbergh, and his costume designer, the look has also been used recently in films like "Sex and the City".
Where else have you seen it?
