Audrey Hepburn's beehive, made famous by her character Holly Golightly in 'Breakfast At Tiffany's' has been voted as most memorable hairdo of the past half a century.
'Audrey Hepburn's beehive in 'Breakfast At Tiffany's' is a style almost everyone is familiar with, even if they have never seen the film,' said Sacha Mascolo-Tarbuck, Global Creative Director for Toni & Guy, who conducted the survey. ' The image of her with her dark hair piled up while she is holding a cigarette holder is one of the most recognizable film images of all time. The fact that the famous style is still topping these kinds of lists half a century since the film was released shows how iconic it really is - and it gained even more fans when the film was released last year.'
Elvis Presley's jet black coif came in second, followed by Amy Winehouse's super high beehive, Bardot's tousled bed head look also topped the list, which was put together to mark the UK based chain of salons' 50th anniversary. Princess Diana's feathered pageboy and Brigitte Bob Marley's dreadlocks and 'The Rachel,' the layered bob famously worn by Jennifer Aniston on the hit TV show 'Friends.'
Other iconic hairstyles among the top ten, compiled from a poll of 2,000 Brits include The Beatles' matching mop tops, Marilyn Monroe's glamorous blonde curls and Farrah Fawcett's feathered blonde locks. According to Mail Online, Twiggy's pixie cut was voted into 11th place followed the heavily combed style Kate Middleton's long brunette curls came 13th, with James Dean's style, David Beckham's '90s 'do and Cher's waist-length, straight hair close behind. John Travolta wore when he played Danny Zuko in the 1970s film 'Grease.'
The glamorous bouffant worn by Jackie Kennedy came in at 17, while Dita Von Teese's retro curls and the famous 'Star Wars' buns worn by Princess Leia. Halle Berry's signature short cut takes the 18th spot. Rounding out the top 20,
'The top ten features styles from across the last 50 or so years - from Hepburn's beehive, right through to Jennifer Aniston's face framing layers - and really show how style and fashion have evolved over the years,' said Mascolo-Tarbuck. 'These styles are instantly recognizable, despite many of them being from a whole generation ago - and they will probably still be as iconic in generations to come.'
