Ever since Breakfast at Tiffany's came out in 1961, fashionistas everywhere have sought to emulate the little black dress, high chignon, oversized sunglasses, and diamond necklace sported by Audrey Hepburn in the film. However, some fans can take their devotion to another level: The brownstone featured in the movie sold for $7.4 million in 2015, but the current listings present several apartments situated in townhouses that would be right at home in Holly Golightly's New York.
