Audrey Hepburn Personally Owned Iridescent Beaded Clutch/Evening Bag W/Letter of Provenance - This lovely evening bag/clutch was personally owned by Audrey Hepburn. The clutch has an egg shape with gold kiss lock closure and iridescent bugle and seed beads, and an attached gold chain shoulder strap to convert from clutch to shoulder carry. The piece comes with a notarized letter of provenance from famed Hollywood hairstylist Sydney Guilaroff, who was a friend and personal hairstylist to Audrey Hepburn and did her hair for many of her films including "Breakfast at Tiffany's". The letter states in part, "Audrey gave me this white iridescent bead and tiny pearl bead evening purse with gold metal frame and chain to add to my collection. No one has used it since Audrey." Sydney Guilaroff was a hair stylist during Hollywood's Golden Age who was the first to receive on-screen credit in films. He worked for more than forty years at the Metro Goldwyn Mayer studios on more than a thousand films, and was instrumental in crafting many of the hairstyles which became the signature looks for numerous film stars. Guilaroff was a friend, stylist, and confidante to many Golden Age stars including Greta Garbo, Joan Crawford, and Audrey Hepburn along with Marilyn Monroe, and styled Marilyn's hair for her funeral in 1962.
