Holly Golightly
The most famous dress in film, and it was modified.
The black column dress, a five-strand pearl choker, opera gloves, oversized sunglasses and a cigarette holder.

Every wardrobe here was written by someone who actually watched the thing. Budget and splurge sit side by side, so you decide how far you want to take it.
