A Special Event for “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” Film Fans

Were you completely besotted with Holly Golightly’s “Cat,” the clever Tiffany’s jewelry references, and pretty much everything else about the iconic 1960’s film, which starred the lovely Audrey Hepburn?

If so, then you’ll be thrilled to hear about the upcoming Tiffany & Co. Exhibition in London, which will be dedicating an entire floor to the Breakfast at Tiffany’s film, showcasing rare novelties and sentimental props that will transport you straight to Ms. Golightly’s sparsely filled brownstone, and all the other wonderful New York settings that make up this Hollywood classic.

Here’s everything that you need to know about the exhibition, along with a few Golightly-inspired jewels to look extra chic upon arrival.

Vision & Virtuosity

Tiffany & Co. is a widely loved and appreciated luxury jewelry brand that spans over 185 years of popular culture. Now, the brand is bringing over 400 objects from the House’s archives to London’s famed Saatchi Gallery as part of their Vision and Virtuosity exhibition.

“Vision & Virtuosity’ celebrates the House’s most defining moments, showcases the incredible collection of archives, and exemplifies why Tiffany & Co. is such an iconic brand,” said Alexandre Arnault, Executive Vice President of Product & Communications in a press release.

The exhibition will be divided into seven chapters, one of which will cover Charles Lewis Tiffany’s legacy.

The Breakfast at Tiffany’s Chapter

With a floor’s worth of Breakfast at Tiffany’s novelties and props on display, fans won’t be disappointed with the chapter’s collection.

Some of the objects said to be displayed include the movie’s original script, Audrey Hepburn’s acclaimed Givenchy column dress, and Tiffany’s legendary 128.54-carat Tiffany Diamond – with Hepburn being one of five women to have ever worn the creation.

“2022 marks a transformative year for Tiffany & Co. for many reasons,” said Tiffany’s Chief Executive Officer, Anthony Ledru. “Not only is it the 185th anniversary of Tiffany & Co., but it is also the 150th anniversary of Tiffany in London. As a nod to our long history within the U.K., we are excited to bring this brand experience for the first time to British visitors and beyond.”
