This year marks 60 years since Holly Golightly stepped on to Fifth Avenue in Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961) in her iconic LBD with its pearl back. It's a two-hour treat and I always pull my chair closer to the screen for a better view of Hubert de Givenchy's costumes, especially those awesome funnel-neck coats.
I don't even notice Grace Kelly's voice anymore when watching High Society (1956). All I see are those achingly gorgeous costumes, designed by MGM's Helen Rose, who went on to design Kelly's wedding dress. Favourite fashion moments are when Kelly slips out of a Grecian robe to reveal a white halterneck bathing suit and, later, when she dances with Frank Sinatra in swirling layers of embellished grey and pink chiffon, a dress which now lives in the Museum of Style Icons in Newbridge, Co Kildare.
