Mastery in Costume and Avatar Design.

The Costumes.

The Avatars.

Anyhoo, whilst we're on the topic of Audrey Hepburn, I have to show you something divine that I got given as a present. You see, on Saturday, I played the violin (awfully) at a wedding of my Form Tutor, and she gave us presents in return, which was really unexpected! Not, however, that I'm complaining, because here is the present, and as you can guess, I was over the moon the receive it. I adore Audrey, I adore the painting on that image, and I adore the present. Go here if you want to see the others in the collection, they're absolutely stunning.

Tunes of Glory (Ronald Neame, 1960).
