Become a ’60s Style Icon this Christmas (without breaking the bank)!

In December of 2009, we visited London’s Pall Mall to view a collection of beautiful dresses that had belonged to the late Audrey Hepburn. These were being auctioned by Kerry Taylor Auctions and we knew that the prices were likely to sky-rocket! A particular favourite was Lot 309: a Rose Bertin scarlet velvet cocktail dress from 1967 (above, right).

As the festive season gets underway, why not take a leaf from Audrey’s book and get glammed up in a vintage red velvet cocktail dress? The gorgeous party frock that’s currently listed on the Velvet Cave eBay shop (above, left) is finished with a marabou feather trim and would positively sizzle at any Christmas or New Year shindig! It’s strikingly similar to Audrey’s choice but in order to own this one, you won’t need to steal a million!
