This thread is amazing. I was wondering if anyone else has seen this? It's a video about how Jacqueline's pink suit is actually a Chanel knock-off b/c her advisers warned her that her overseas spending habits were unamerican. I bought Vanity Fair's issue w/ Jackie Kennedy and they recalled the assassination stating that she was wearing a Chanel suit. Also, her Wikipedia states that she was wearing Chanel.

I wonder if it was Chanel or a American made suit w/ French influence.

Erm, call me crazy, but I think being the wife of one of the most celebrated US Presidents in history and a 1960s style icon and a philanthropist is reason enough to be famous

To me, Jackie was beautiful and a remarkable woman. She was cheated on relentlessly and quite publically by her husband and then lost him in an unbelievably horrific manner. Yet, she seemed to live and continue on for her children. People have said " She only married Onassis for his money" but to me, she married him to protect her children. After Robert Kennedy was assassinated, Jackie feared for her childrens safety and wanted them out of the country. Onassis helped her do this. So what? What mother would reject protecting her children?

Anyway, bottomline, this is a fashion forum and Jackie Kennedy Onassis is fashion and elegence through and through

jackeline Kennedy was never an old lady. Even in her last days she had something youthful an vibrant about her. She was one of a kind, so vital, energetic and full of life. Her elegance was active.
