The introduction is written by Gabriela Hearst, the acclaimed designer behind the wardrobe of US First Lady Jill Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Edward Enninful, OBE, Editor-in-Chief of British Vogue, contributes a foreword reflecting on Carolyn's influence in the fashion industry.
Carolyn Bessette Kennedy was more than just a fashion icon with her long blonde hair, signature red lips and seemingly effortless elegance. She communicated through her clothing, a style that spoke louder than words, especially at a time when she was still seeking her place in the public eye as Mrs. Kennedy. Her attention to detail, a carefully selected color palette and her ability to create a unique, personal look without visible brand logos made her a symbol of sophistication. She refused to follow the conventional norms of a woman in her position, married into a famous family. Instead, she chose to lead the way with her innovative clothing choices, exuding confidence and grace.
