Jackie's Iconic Looks: Favorite #1: Green Greek Goddess

For me personally, the celadon silk jersey gown by Oleg is stunning. Not only is the color delicious, but the shape of the dress and the way it hugged Jackie's curves makes this dress a clear winner. It's a stand-out from some of her other gowns, as this design reflects a nod to the ancient Greek goddesses. With or without the elbow length gloves, this dress works! And, this is a look that could still be worn today. Favorite, favorite!

    

JFK is chatting with Mary Hemmingway (I believe), and Jackie is giving her undivided attention to poet Robert Frost. Here is one time when b/w fails to capture the true elegance and beauty of a gown.

Want to spend more time with Jackie and relive part of the 60s? Check out O! Jackie, a novel exploring Jackie's private life and her struggles with JFK. You might also enjoy "Encounter," a free short story on my web site, ojackiebook.com .
