Hey everyone! Last week I went to London to see the new Audrey Hepburn exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery.
Audrey and her films have had a huge impact on my life; they have shaped the way in which I look at fashion and they also started my love for old Hollywood back when I was fifteen years old. Not only that, but Audrey's personal life and her philanthropy are things that I truly admire- for me, she is the ultimate role model. Therefore, when I found out that this exhibition will only be on show until October, there was no question about it: I had to go.
Seeing all the portraits together and being in a place solely dedicated to Audrey was a great experience, but, sadly, I was disappointed. This may be due to the fact that, as a massive Audrey fan, I had come across the majority of photographs before. However, I also felt that there should have been more information not only about each portrait, but about Audrey's life as a whole; I quote a review by The Guardian when I say that the exhibition is "beautiful, but unrevealing."
