Inspiration
Truman Capote stated that the story of Holly Golightly was based on a woman that Truman Capote had befriended during the early 1940's. Furthermore, Truman Capote used his friendships in order to act as inspiration for the character of Holly Golightly Moreover, in Breakfast at Tiffany's, the Tiffany & Company shop that is widely associated with the brand Givenchy, is linked as the founder of Givenchy, Hubert de Givenchy himself designed the very satin dress which ensured Audrey Hepburn's/ Holly Golightly's success and recognition One of the many woman that inspired Truman Capote in his search for the perfect Holly Golightly was Marilyn Monroe as he believed she would play the role better. Erin Carlson in their newspaper stated how Capote wanted Marilyn Monroe for the Hollywood adaptation, and thus believed that Audrey Hepburn was miscast as Holly Golightly. Furthermore, Truman Capote envisioned Holly Golightly as a blond haired woman therefore making Monroe more fitting for the role.
