The most iconic fashion moments in film


Film and fashion go together like Breton stripes and denim - two well-loved concepts that, married together, are more than the sum of their parts. They say clothes maketh the man, and it's certainly true that costumes maketh the character. After all, what would Sandy do without her skin-tight leather trousers to fall back on in Grease? More often than not, it's not the finer plot points but the on-screen outfits that linger in our memories - like these, still-iconic fashion moments in film. 

Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly’s LBD and pearls in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Audrey Hepburn's turn as Holly Golightly took two staid classics and made them the pinnacle of chic, teaching us some style lessons we can never ignore. 1) A little black dress, nipped in at the waist, will always look marvellous, and 2) You can spruce that dress up with garlands of pearls for a look fit for a Park Avenue princess.
