No takers for Audrey Hepburn's 'lucky' Roman Holiday dress

December 01, 2011 12:26

Trivia: The lucky dress which the legendary actress Audrey Hepburn wore to collect her first Oscar has failed to sell at auction. The iconic ivory-coloured lace gown was expected to raise between USD 60,000 and USD 90,000.

Hepburn wore the frock while filming her role in 1953 movie Roman Holiday and she had the gown adapted so she could wear it to the Academy Awards following her Best Actress nomination for the film. She won the award and subsequently put the triumph down to her lucky dress.
