When Audrey Hepburn died at the age of sixty-three, she left behind one final surprise—an empty closet. Where were the designer originals worth tens of thousands of dollars? The world-famous little black dress from Breakfast at Tiffany's? Why did Audrey Hepburn, of all people, have a nearly empty closet with nary a couture gown in sight?

The answer proved both simple and profound. During her last ten years, Audrey Hepburn ruthlessly pared away at her life until only the absolute essentials remained. Hollywood? Not interested. Fashion shows? Thank you, but no. There was simply no need for Givenchy gowns when trekking across Africa on behalf of the starving children of the world.

In truth, if anyone had been paying strict attention to the substance beneath her dazzling surface, they would have seen an indication of her ultimate direction as far back as 1959's The Nun's Story; speaking to her castmate Patricia Bosworth, she had explained: "I love fashion, you know. Really love it. But fashion has nothing to do with me." At which point, recalled Bosworth, Audrey touched her heart and emphasized: "The me in here. . . . the private me, the interior me —inside I'm not fashionable at all." - Audrey Hepburn: A Life of Beautiful Uncertainty

Isn't it time you realized that dancing is nothing more than a form of expression or release? There's no need to be formal or cute about it. As a matter of fact I rather feel like expressing myself now. And I could certainly use a release!
