For example, the British actor is credited with popularizing capris \u2014 a pants cut that&#8217;s become <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glam.com\/2185263\/chic-summer-2026-fashion-trends-for-women-over-50\/\" target=\"_blank\">trendy in the summer of 2026<\/a> \u2014 after wearing them for the 1954 film &#8220;Sabrina.&#8221; In a promotional photo for the movie, Hepburn can be seen wearing an all black ensemble featuring capris, a long sleeve shirt, and ballet flats.<\/p>\n<div class=\"image-holder embedded gallery-image-holder credit-image-wrap\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"gallery-image lazyload\" alt=\"Audrey Hepburn poses partially lying down for Sabrina movie publicity photoshoot black capris\" src=\"https:\/\/www.glam.com\/img\/uploads\/embed\/it-ieYhNb-1785106093.jpg\" border=\"0\"\/><span class=\"gallery-image-credit\">Bettmann\/Getty<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<p>Despite the simplicity of the outfit, it was looks like this that made the star a favorite amongst everyday women. Capris were accessible and, as Hepburn proved, easily elevated when styled correctly. Plus, the pants were a reflection of the actor&#8217;s personal aesthetic, not just her character&#8217;s costume. In fact, director Billy Wilder allowed the star to pick her own outfits for the movie. The impact of that choice is still reflected today, with capris becoming a recurring fashion trend available in a variety of looks.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-article\">\n<h2 class=\"\">Capris are back and available in more styles than ever<\/h2>\n<div class=\"slide-key image-holder gallery-image-holder credit-image-wrap \" data-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.glam.com\/2228886\/audrey-hepburn-helped-elevate-pants-style-capris-still-trending\/\" data-post-title=\"Audrey Hepburn Helped Elevate A Pants Style That's Still Trending To This Day\" data-slide-num=\"1\" data-post-id=\"2228886\">\n<picture id=\"p0e6e1b1fe4d604422fb5f78859a6f48c\">&#13;<source media=\"(min-width: 429px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.glam.com\/img\/gallery\/audrey-hepburn-helped-elevate-a-pants-style-thats-still-trending-to-this-day\/capris-are-back-and-available-in-more-styles-than-ever-1785509046.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\">&#13;<source media=\"(max-width: 428px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.glam.com\/img\/gallery\/audrey-hepburn-helped-elevate-a-pants-style-thats-still-trending-to-this-day\/capris-are-back-and-available-in-more-styles-than-ever-1785509046.sm.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\">&#13;<br \/>\n                        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"gallery-image \" src=\"https:\/\/www.glam.com\/img\/gallery\/audrey-hepburn-helped-elevate-a-pants-style-thats-still-trending-to-this-day\/capris-are-back-and-available-in-more-styles-than-ever-1785509046.jpg\" data-slide-url=\"https:\/\/www.glam.com\/2228886\/audrey-hepburn-helped-elevate-pants-style-capris-still-trending\/\" data-post-id=\"2228886\" data-slide-num=\"1\" data-slide-title=\"Audrey Hepburn Helped Elevate A Pants Style That's Still Trending To This Day: Capris are back and available in more styles than ever\" width=\"780\" height=\"438\" alt=\"Side by side photos of three women wearing different style capris with purses and sunglasses\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\n                    <\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n                    <span class=\"gallery-image-credit\">Valentina Frugiuele\/Getty<\/span>\n                    <\/div>\n<div class=\"columns-holder \">\n<p>Today, capris remain a staple in the fashion industry, and are available in a variety of materials and patterns. Among this season&#8217;s most popular designs are capris that are leggings, denim, lace trimmed, cotton, gingham,\u00a0and\u00a0polka dot. The pants&#8217; high waist, close fit, and hem above the ankle give them a great level of styling versatility. While the pants are often a part of bold, eye-catching looks, Audrey Hepburn&#8217;s impact can still be detected. Among everyday women and celebrities alike, capris\u00a0are still frequently paired with Hepburn-adjacent low heel shoes and chic sunnies.<\/p>\n<div class=\"image-holder embedded gallery-image-holder credit-image-wrap\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"gallery-image lazyload\" alt=\"Jennifer Lopez wearing capris\" src=\"https:\/\/www.glam.com\/img\/uploads\/embed\/it-Ztbf8E-1785508293.jpg\" border=\"0\"\/><span class=\"gallery-image-credit\">Xny\/star Max\/Getty<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<p>Helping to keep the cropped length pants a fashion staple are actors like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.glam.com\/2143358\/jennifer-lopez-outfits-flaunt-killer-legs\/\" target=\"_blank\">Jennifer Lopez,\u00a0who loves outfits that flaunt her legs<\/a>.
