Sixties Style Icons

See who set the style agenda in the Swinging Sixties...

Jackie Onassis

Known as the most stylish First Lady in history, Jackie Onassis' style has been copied and aspired to by women all over the world. Born into New York high society in 1929, she went on to marry US president John F. Kennedy, who she stayed with until his assassination in 1963. In 1968 she married Greek shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis. During both marriages, which suffered with different problems - alleged infidelity (Kennedy) and business trips (Onassis) - she cheered herself up by shopping. Constantly. Throughout the Sixties, she became known for her impeccable style and grooming, and had a tendency to wear clean suits by French designers like Chanel, Givenchy and Christian Dior.
