Movie TRENDSETTERS

AUDREY HEPBURN

BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S

"Anyone who ever gave you confidence, you owe them a lot," said Audrey's Holly Golightly in the 1961 classic. So, kudos to designer Givenchy, who gave women just that by popularizing her little black dress, now ubiquitous in every closet. "[It was] the hardest thing to realize," he'd admit, "because you must keep it simple."

MIA FARROW

ROSEMARY'S BABY

After the 1968 horror classic, Peter Pan collars and shift dresses became all the rage, as did Mia's pixie hairdo. But while it's credited to Vidal Sassoon, Mia revealed "I had literally cut it myself earlier - with a pair of fingernail scissors while working on [TV's] Peyton Place. My then-boyfriend, Frank Sinatra, loved the cut, and so I kept it short."

JENNIFER BEALS

FLASHDANCE

What a feeling! With the 1983 hit, gals didn't sweat wearing off-theshoulder sweatshirts, thanks to Jennifer. "I had a favorite sweatshirt that had remained in the dryer for too long, so the hole for my head was too small. So I cut around the hole. I wore it to one of the auditions, and they liked it."

TOM CRUISE

TOP GUN
