The Flat of the Ballet
Manolo says, as you may see below, the Manolo he has been thinking about the arrival of the spring, and for the Manolo this it means the return of the skimmer and the flat of the ballet.
Wearing the flat of the ballet with the cropped pants, it is very Sabrina in the Paris in the time of the spring. Here are two of the shoes from the Delman to help you feed your fantasies of being the Audrey Hepburn.
This pastel blue of the Easter egg it signals to the Manolo the arrival of the spring!
If we have the blue, we must have the pink. Here it is with the mesh.
And, finally, just beacause the Manolo he is in that sort of the mood, here is the picture of the more pleasant of the Hepburn sisters.

Manolo, can the veryvery tall girl wear capri’s without looking like her pants are just too short? I’m 6′2″, and while I love the Audrey Hepburn look, I worry that it just doesn’t go with my height.

You are right that the pants of the Audrey, they would not work for you. The trick for the very tall girl is to wear the capris that are cropped just below the knee. This length of the pants, it can still be worn with the flat of the ballet, but the look, it is somewhat more deliberate and will not look awkward on the girl of the tallness.

Am I missing the clever wit of the Manolo with his calling of the divine Hepburn actresses (yes, the Katherine she may have been the brash, but the fablulous actress she also was) sisters?

I do not know if it is the Manolo’s wit working in odd ways, but it is a common mistake and so I will point out to general readership that the Hepburns of Hollywood, they were both white, cheekbony, and thin, both with large eyes and dark hair and small patrician noses, both elegant actresses of both comedy and drama, but they were no relation to each other.

I’m pretty sure Manolo knows they weren’t sisters. S/He’s too culture savvy to not know.
It just occured to me that I have no idea what the sex of my beloved Manolo is!

The Manolo he is all man, baby.
