Style Icon XXXVII: Rex Harrison


Here he is, as Professor Higgins, with Audrey Hepburn, as Liza Doolittle, in the ball scene of the film My Fair Lady 1964. I once saw him strolling through The Ritz arcade on Piccadilly and, apart from Robert Morley (whose taxi-cab once crawled abreast with mine along the Euston Road), he is the only film star that I have ever seen in the flesh who did not seem smaller in real life than on the scrreen.
