Retrospective of the style of John Kennedy<

Charismatic leader of a booming America, John Kennedy is probably one of the most popular presidents of the United States. Accompanied by Jackie, his wife, they formed the glamorous couple of the 60s: a model of elegance, punctuated by sober suits and casual clothes, which still influences the men's wardrobe today. Focus.

We remember three things from John F. Kennedy: his relationship with Marilyn Monroe, his innate leadership and his style of dress. It is on this point that we are focusing today, by deciphering with precision the outfits that have made this political figure a fashion icon.

Because politics is above all a story of seduction. That of charming his assembly and his public through speeches but also through a well-designed look, which inspires confidence.

While the majority of Americans bet on a classic three-piece consisting of a waistcoat, a jacket and trousers, John F. Kennedy, he opted for a lighter look, only provided with a tie, covering his shoulders with a long woolen coat.

Rétrospective du style de John Kennedy

His preferences? Two-button jackets. Not because he wore a corset as the rumor said, but because this cut refined him and made him elegant.

As always, everything is done in detail. As meticulous in his look as in business, John F. Kennedy placed great importance on accessories. Ray-Bans screwed to the nose on sunny days, a dark colored Borsalino for rainy evenings.

As a family, the President forsook his formal suit to often wear a polo shirt and chinos, two casual pieces that were pleasant to wear during long boat trips. It is also to him that we owe the reintroduction of navy blue cotton blazers, as well as tweed jackets, relayed in the closet by his predecessors. Finally, brown or black leather moccasins are the mainstay of her holiday outfits and are one of the key elements of her "preppy" touch.

Simple, elegant but always studied, the style of John F. Kennedy easily goes through the ages without taking a wrinkle. A timeless icon, whose codes we use to in turn become a charismatic orator with an undisputed allure.
