The most fashionable first lady

If we want to select a fashion lady who is most influential and representative in last century, Jacqueline Kennedy is undoubtedly the most suitable person. She left a deep impression on us in the American history. She was not only a beloved wife of American president John Kennedy but also had an insuperable statue in the fashion industry.
Jacqueline was born in a rich family in American. She owned beautiful garden, favorite horse and book since she was born. And she was deeply influenced by Audrey Hepburn and Chanel when she was still a little girl.

From the early times when she took part in the campaign along with her husband Kennedy, her elegant evening dress, white gloves, hat and bag became a classical picture of her. Each time, her pretty appearance became focus of people all over the world. As first lady of American, it was a critical question to make her complicate dressing stand out in the campaign. Jacqueline knew exactly to build her stunning style by using lots of pearl and retro ornaments.
She was beloved by people as a first lady, especially women who modeled her, learning her manners, speech, behavior and evening her dressing. Her each word, manner and dressing detail left us with an endless aftertaste. She had her own view on dressing, which successfully advocated the fashion trend of America. After half a century, Edith Head, the Hollywood notable fashion designer, said she was a best dresser in the history. Editor-in-chief of the Fashion magazine said Jacqueline brought taste and elegance to the White House and even America.
No matter how life changes, people’s pursuit of fashion remains unchanged. She lost her husband at the age of 34, and then she married Aristotle Sokratis Onassis, a Greek shipping tycoon who was as rich as a country. From then on, a new dawn came to her life. And the fans imitated her new image: extravagant jewels, symbolic sunglasses and luxurious evening dress of Gipsy style.
Of course, Jacqueline had to thanks her good friend and designer Oleg Cassini who helped build up her icon image. In the autumn of 1960, Jacqueline asked Cassini to make an original closet of the first lady for her. Since then, many of her style made by Cassini went down to posterity and became classical style in the fashion history. Including the light yellow brown coat and evening dress she wore on Inauguration Day. Since Cassini’s successful design for the first lady, there had been no design work that could compete with his early design. In the recent one or two years, a nostalgic wind waved in the fashion industry, leading to the reappearance of Jacqueline’s knee-high suit skirt, turndown collar cost, sleeveless A shape Simple Prom Dresses gloves and cap with a flat circular top.

Jacqueline left a deep impression on people at her times. She showed others her real charming of vivid character. Times has passed, but her beauty still remains in our heart. She is still worthy of imitation for the fashion industry.

WEDDING DRESS SHOPPING: 7 TIPS YOU NEED TO KNOW


jcrew-wedding-dresses
For some brides-to-be, shopping for a wedding dress uk is utterly thrilling. For others, it’s an utter headache. Regardless of which category you fall into, these 7 tips will help make the process seamless—and the outcome stylish.
1. Do yourself up
While you don’t need to go full-out with hair and makeup when trying on wedding dresses, it pays to arrive at the store with a toned-down version of the beauty looks you’re planning to rock on your wedding day. It’ll give you a much better picture of how the dress will look when all the moving parts come together, and combat against white’s innate ability to wash out most skintones.

2. Shoe structure is key
Already have the shoes you’re wearing to your wedding? Great, bring ‘em along. If you don’t, it’s key to bring footwear you know will be similar, both in heel height and in silhouette. Various shoe structures can dramatically alter the way clothing falls, especially dress hems.

For example, a sleek stiletto with a low vamp and a super-skinny heel will make the hem of a gown lay quite differently than a shoe with a thick ankle strap and chunky heels, or a shoe that’s adorned with embellishments or hardware.
3. Wear—or bring—the right undergarments
Without wearing proper undergarments to try on wedding dresses, the trip can pretty much be considered a waste. After all, there’s not a woman alive who hasn’t experienced the transformative powers of the right shapewear or bra. If you’re going shopping without a clear-cut picture of what type of dress you’d like, bring a few different options, such as a strapless bra, a push-up bra, a thong, and various pieces of suck-it-in shapewear.

4. Know your price range
It’s easy to get sucked into a vortex of over-the-top expensive wedding dresses (hello, you’re wearing it once), which is why it pays to start shopping with a budget—or at least a price range—firmly in place. Don’t forget to factor in extra, such as alterations, shoes, and accessories. That said, it’s best not to even try on gowns outside of your price range when you’re shopping for fear that you’ll fall madly in love with a gazillion-dollar gown only be be let down by every other dress you try.

5. Adhere to your own dress code
We’ve been to one too many weddings where, surprisingly, it’s the bride that looks totally out of place—not any of the guests. Psyched for your exotic destination beach wedding, but dying to wear a princess-style ball gown? Not gonna work! Tying the knot in a fancy big-city hotel on a Saturday night? Skip the easy-breezy white sundress. Trust us: Wearing something that compliments the setting and the background of your venue will look stylish and timeless.

6. Skip the entourage
Indeed, we’re aware that many brides consider dress shopping the ultimate time to bond with their mothers, sisters, aunts, grandmothers, BFFs, college roommates, neighbors, colleagues, second cousins, and mother-in-laws, but it comes down to this: Too many cooks in the kitchen will absolutely muck up the experience.

Between differing tastes, generations, opinions, and levels of knowledge about your personal style, you’ll only end up confused and in desperate need of some Advil (or a strong cocktail.) Plus, the decision is—when it comes down to it—nobody’s to make but yours. Instead, we suggest bringing one or two people who know you and your style well, and who are calm, honest, and modern.
7. Have an open mind
Yes, it’s important to know your own style—and not compromise—but you might be surprised how good you look and feel in a style, cut, or length you normally wouldn’t have expected. There’s really nothing to lose by trying on as many dresses as you can.
