Obsessed with everything Audrey Hepburn, Lisbeth is transformed when she secretly tries on Audrey’s iconic Givenchy. She becomes who she wants to be by pretending to be somebody she’s not and living among the young and privileged Manhattan elite. Soon she’s faced with choices that she would never imagine making – between who she’s become and who she once was.
In the tradition of The Nanny Diaries and The Devil Wears Prada, this is a coming of age story that all begins with that little black dress…

His video works are part of The Museum of Broadcasting, Whitney Museum, and London Institute among others.
I fell in love with both the title and cover. The first movie I saw with Audrey Hepburn was My Fair Lady and I LOVED it! So I was super excited to get this book. I really enjoyed this book. Lisbeth was awesome. I was so jealous of what she got to do. She gets to live the life I've wanted since I was little. Through the story, she learns about who she is and where she wants to be in life. What a great story.
