Fashion and creative director Sunita Kumar Nair presents Carolyn Bessette Kennedy: A Life in Fashion, which pays tribute to the timeless, distinguished beauty and legacy of the style icon in the first book of its kind.
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.
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 yet found her voice 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 brand labels deliberately removed, she embodied class—no label would ever define her.
She didn’t choose to conform to the typical aristocratic standards expected of a woman in her position who had married into a family dynasty; instead, she did the unexpected and wore her revolutionary clothes with aplomb, confidence, and grace.
Featuring spectacular photography and design, Carolyn Bessette Kennedy: A Life in Fashion gathers the greats in the fashion world to speak about her timeless style and presents never-before-published personal anecdotes from friends and family, including fashion luminaries such as Graydon Carter, Calvin Klein, Michael Kors, Manolo Blahnik, Wes Gordon, Tory Burch, and Samira Nasr.
This book is the ultimate tribute to Carolyn Bessette Kennedy’s style, fashion philosophy, and the impact she left behind nearly two decades later.
