The Gap Audrey Pant commercial...

[AuroraBorealis]

where Audrey Hepburn is dancing around in her trademark skinny black pants and turtleneck...

What movie is that from?

I'm not really a Audrey Hepburn fan, but this commercial really captures my attention, for some reason.

The pants are really nice too!

i was thinking that exact same thing today! LOVE that commercial!

I like the commercial, I'm just bummed that skinny black pants will be in style again @@.

 

[txSleepingBeauty]

I gotta say I hate that commercial.....I hate when ad agencies use dead celebs to schill for things.....

that and any commercial that uses an iconic song-i.e. the levis commercial with the remake of "Walk the Line"

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

I will never be able to pull off the skinny pant!

 

[RayaniFoxmur]

Ugh, I can't stand that commercial! The first time I ever saw it it was SO LONG I now can't even stand the short version of it lol!

Can't we stop ressurecting the dead fashion trends too?

 

[Honu]

Love Audrey. LOVE that she's dancing to AC/DC.

Not loving the resurgence of skinny black pants.

I will never be able to pull off the skinny pant!

Of course you will because all the tops this season are really long. They are really not meant to be worn the way Audrey wore them with the short top. God ,how many women in the world look like her?

 

[DVCLiz]

Love the commercial. Love Audrey. Love anticipating watching other women but not me, ever, wear the skinny black pant.

 

[Sherri]

I LOVE the pants. I can't wait to get some.

 

[Kimmielee]

I LOVE the pants. I can't wait to get some.

Ladies, must we squish Sherri like a bug for being ABLE to wear these skinny pants?

 

[helenabear]

I thought the commercial was cute. I love Audrey so it was neat to see her in that!

I hate the paints. As a very athletic and cury built lady, you will *not* see me in these. If I want something skin tight, I will wear leggings. Even as a smaller size they will not fit or they will look like crap on me. Tall and skinny are the only ones who can really get away with it! Wish they would have left the skinny black pant back in the closet!

It's from the movie Funny Face, with Fred Astaire.

Fred plays a high-fashion photographer, and Audrey's character is his newest discovery. She is anti-fashion, quasi-beatnik, and intellectual, devoted to a new philosophy called "empathicalism". She agrees to be his model to get a free trip to Paris to meet her hero, a famous empathicalist.

Of course, they fall in love.

I like the look-But will NEVER be able to pull it off.

The other evening, my 7 year old daughter wore black footless tights, a denim mini and a solid black turtle neck with black ballet flats (no socks). It looked cute Although I felt as if I owned/wore the same outfit 20 years ago

I do hope the "skinny jean" is a fast moving trend, though.

Does anyone know where you can get the movie? Is it something that I could pick up at a rental store?

I like that commercial too. Once again the Dis boards let me know that I am normal, not a nut!

We need to get rid of those flared leg pants that remind me SO MUCH of the 70s bellbottoms. That's one I want to see permanently buried.

 

[caitycaity]

bootlegs/flares are the only thing that look good on me because it balances out my big butt and hips.

no way in hell will i ever be wearing skinny black pants - even if i lost the 30 pounds i still need to lose. my hips and thighs are too big!

i lived through the 80's. it is too soon for me to be wearing 80's styles again. i look back at pictures of me in 80's clothes and think we all look ridiculous!

Love Audrey, love the skinny black pants but HATE the skinny jeans!!!

Edited to add, the skinny black pants are completely sold out on the Gap website in all sizes 0-20 except for the size 12! Guess they are popular with women of all sizes.

I think I DID wear that some 20 odd years ago! Won't see me repeating it though!
