In Being Audrey Hepburn, Clarissa Explains It All-creator, Mitchell Kriegman, tells the story of a 19-year-old girl from Jersey who finds herself thrust into the world of socialites after being seen in Audrey Hepburnโs dress from the film Breakfast at Tiffanyโs. Lisbeth comes from a broken home in the land of tube tops, heavy eyeliner, frosted lip-gloss, juiceheads, hoop earrings and โthe shore.โ She has a circle of friends who have dedicated their teenage lives to relieve the world of all its alcohol one drink at a time. Obsessed with everything Audrey Hepburn, Lisbeth is transformed when she secretly tries on Audreyโs iconic Givenchy. She becomes who she wants to be by pretending to be somebody sheโs not and living among the young and privileged Manhattan elite. Soon sheโs faced with choices that she would never imagine making โ between who sheโs become and who she once was. In the tradition of The Nanny Diaries and The Devil Wears Prada, this is a coming of age story that all begins with that little black dressโฆ
