Now Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette can be streamed, there is a lot of extra interest in the well-known duo. The internet is especially curious about it Carolyn Bessette Kennedywho seemed to be the “it girl” at the time thanks to her unique style.
Although Carolyn was best known as the wife of John F. Kennedy Jr., she had her own identity long before her marriage to the lawyer and publisher. With a background in sales and PR, Carolyn was a prominent fashion publicist who worked for Calvin Klein for approximately eight years. She was also known for her fashion sense, especially her love for Levi’s jeans.
The text continues below the photo.
Carolyn was photographed several times, often in different pairs of Levi’s jeans. A quick search showed us that Carolyn mainly uses the… 517 boot cut jeans from the brand (rumor had it she wore the men’s version with a belt for that boyfriend jeans look). But if you want a similar style without having to worry about extra fabric at the waist, we think the Levi’s Wedgie bootcut jeans from the brand’s women’s collection can achieve the same effect. The crazy thing is? Both jeans are still available on Levi’s website, decades later.

What styling concerns, wore Carolyn the jeans often with almost any outfit. You could see her parading through the streets of New York in a long black coat with a fur collar, Selima sunglasses and her hair slicked back with a wide headband, or walking her dog in a light camel trench coat and black boots with block heels. Regardless, her legacy and iconic style still lives on almost 30 years later.
