The iconic (life)style of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy
Tomorrow, 'American Love Story' will finally be released. Ryan Murphy’s long-awaited series brings the legendary love story of John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy back to life. The show places Carolyn, the ultimate ’90s style icon and minimalist pur sang, back in the spotlight. It reminds us that her refined, understated aesthetic continues to inspire wardrobes and moodboards alike. Her timeless uniform of neutral tones and effortless coolness defines what we now call quiet luxury and sets the context for this trend mailing.
Beige & black, forever
Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy proved that two colours are enough to build a complete style identity. Beige and black were never a safe choice for her, but a statement of calm, control and timeless elegance.

The perfect pair of jeans
Her straight-leg jeans were never trend-driven, but always perfectly balanced. Clean, high-waisted and paired with a simple top. They formed the foundation of her nonchalant yet considered look.

Her iconic accessories
Carolyn chose accessories that never overpowered an outfit, but subtly enhanced it. A sleek pair of sunglasses and a headband were often all she needed to finish a look, spot on.
