Jackie Kennedy’s iconic looks that we love

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis is undeniably one of the greatest style icons of the last century.

During her first year in the White House, Jackie started more than a few trends, including popularising the pillbox hat, which she often wore in different colours.

Jackie’s signature shades were both stylish and functional – she said she liked the opportunity they gave her to watch people and that she kept multiple pairs of sunglasses in a basket by her front door.

She had an ability to make even the most casual outfits look chic, and often paired headscarves with giant sunglasses when she was outdoors. What a way to hide a bad hair day!

Though her hairstyle evolved over the years, Jackie’s voluminous coif was an iconic part of her signature look.

Her iconic bouffant was created by the famed hairdresser to the stars who also styled Marilyn Monroe –Kenneth Battelle.
