gathers the greats in the fashion world to speak of her timeless style and presents
never-before-published personal anecdotes from friends and family. Long blonde hair an
iconic red lip and effortless style—all signatures of fashion icon Carolyn Bessette Kennedy.
Carolyn used fashion as her medium. She hadn’t found her voice yet in front of the camera as
Mrs. Kennedy so she let her fashion speak to the world for her. With her attention to detail
strict color palette and unique unidentifiable looks with the brand labels deliberately
removed she was the essence of class—no label would ever define her. She didn’t choose to
abide by the typical patrician standard expected from a woman of her position who had married
into a family dynasty. Instead she did the unexpected and wore her revolutionary clothes with
aplomb confidence and grace. This book is the ultimate commemoration of Carolyn Bessette
Kennedy’s style fashion code and the impact she left behind nearly two decades later. It
includes memories and tributes from fashion luminaries including Graydon Carter Calvin Klein
Michael Kors Manolo Blahnik Wes Gordon Tory Burch and Samira Nasr. This lushly produced
high-design volume is packed with beautiful photography. Foreword by Gabriela Hearst
award-winning designer to First Lady Jill Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris * Preface by
Edward Enninful OBE Editor-in-Chief of British Vogue
