Probably Not Audrey Hepburn Nude
This is all over Tumblr and Pinterest with versions of the same caption: “Audrey Hepburn getting ready for an outdoor bath while vacationing at Côte d’Azur 1956.” I want to believe, and so do you:
My problem is twofold. First of all, posing nude would have been out of character for what I know of Aubrey Hepburn. (And despite several random internet captions suggesting this was a paparazzi shot, it’s posed or I’ll eat that fine lady’s bath beads.) Second, whenever I spot essentially the same caption on a hundred different social media instances of an image, I smell a rat.
Finally, I’ve found a counter-provenance that seems more plausible. The same photo appears here in a collection of nudes (models not identified) attributed to photographer André de Dienes.

Third problem: Audrey Hepburn was /tiny/ – under 110 pounds throughout her career. The lady in the picture above is a much healthier weight, and has the curves to go with it that Audrey lacked.
Agree with Da Wolfie. AH’s hips were more slender.

A few days later, it was Audrey who called the Photographer …. … She felt more relaxed … Once again we had to coat her whole body to darken her skin this was done this time in her bathtub But … Audrey still detested that, but it was essential

Googling seems to indicate that this is a photo by Andre de Dienes from 1940, model unknown. You can find more of this series on line, and this is obviously not Audrey Hepburn.
