What's left behind the scenes
- The film is based on Truman Capote’s novel “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” (1958).
- The famous little black dress worn by Hepburn’s character in the film was created personally by Hubert de Givenchy.
- Initially, John Frankenheimer was slated to direct the film, with Marilyn Monroe set to star in the lead role.
- A German postage stamp from 2001, whose design featured an image of Audrey Hepburn from the film “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” has become a philatelic rarity and is worth over 50,000 euros.
- The Tiffany’s store was opened on a Sunday specifically for the film crew – this was the first time it had happened since the nineteenth century.
- The Japanese company “Jun Planning” released a Holly Golightly doll.
- For her role in “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” Hepburn received $750,000, becoming the highest-paid actress in Hollywood at the time.
- The role of Paul Varjak was offered to Steve McQueen, but he had to decline as he was busy filming "Wanted: Live or Dead".
- On December 4, 2006, the black dress worn by Audrey Hepburn's character was sold for $807,000 at a Christie's auction in London.
- The famous scene at the beginning of the film, where Audrey Hepburn walks alone along the deserted streets of New York and then approaches the "Tiffany's" store, was actually filmed under the gaze of hundreds of onlookers. This irritated Hepburn, and she kept making mistakes, but eventually focused and the scene was filmed.
- Audrey Hepburn admitted that the episode in which she throws a cat onto a dirty, rainy street was the most unpleasant for her in the entire film.
- Initially, the lyrics of the song began: "I'm Holly, like I want to be / like Holly on a tree back home...".

- In the film, Holly and Paul steal a pair of plastic Halloween masks from the "Five and Dime" store. Paul's mask is of the dog Huckleberry, supposedly a reference to the "huckleberry friend" from the song "Moon River".
