Although he dressed many fashion icons as Jackeline Kennedy Onasis and Grace Kelly along with others, it was his friendship with Audrey Hepburn, his muse that helped him shine brighter. Their friendship and constant collaboration seemed to originate from a genuine friendship which both enjoyed and cherished. Unlike today where most collaborations are mainly financially motivated.
