A PAIR OF FAIR LADIES: Audrey Hepburn and Julie Andrews, 37th Annual Academy Awards, 1965
At elegant ease in her perfectly understated sheath, long gloves and minimal jewelry, Hepburn is at once adorable gamine and haute couture mannequin. Arm-in-arm with Broadway queen Andrews, Hepburn smiles graciously, showing no strain or pain despite being snubbed big-time by the Academy Awards. Though Andrews originated the role of Eliza in "My Fair Lady" on stage, she was passed over in favor of Hepburn -- whose singing was dubbed by Marni Nixon -- for the movie. "My Fair Lady" garnered 12 nominations and eight wins, with nary a nom for Hepburn, while the luminous lady she replaced took home the Best Actress award for "Mary Poppins." (Bettmann / Corbis)
