The use of an icon is evident specifically in My Fair Lady. Audrey Hepburn was and remains a role model to many people. The change of her character in this film is evident mostly through the way she dresses. These screenshots (above) show this gradual transformation. Throughout the film, the focus of the audience's gaze is on Eliza Doolittle, this is obvious due to the elaborate costumes and general aura of Audrey Hepburn in comparison to her fellow actors, who generally wear dull colours and fade into the background as to not distract from the focal point.
