Star Wars babe Natalie Portman borrows Audrey Hepburn’s ‘little black dress’ for the new cover of Bazaar Magazine.

The iconic black column dress was worn by Hepburn in 1961’s Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
Natalie says of her ‘Hepburn’ experience: “I did feel very elegant suddenly…I mean, you can’t possibly measure up to Audrey Hepburn; there’s no comparison. But the elegance that she exuded was transmitted to the dress, you know, the feeling, the emotion of it.â€Â
“I was so nervous that I wasn’t going to fit…Everyone kept telling me how small it was, and I’m not the type who can starve myself. I’m small, but it’s not like I’m see-through.†Of course you’re not see-through - you’re gorgeous!!!
The dress, which is one of three versions made for the 1961 movie, is being sold to the highest bidder on Dec. 5 at Christie’s auction house in London. The dress is expected to get as much as $130,000.
