Her Incredible Fashion Sense
Jackie made a name for herself with her iconic fashion sense. A lot of the credit should go to none other than Oleg Cassini, her close friend and a fashion designer. After JFK was elected president in 1960, Jackie asked Cassini to come up with a unique set of clothes for her first lady duties. The French-born American artist whipped up some of the most stylish outfits Jackie wore. This includes the inaugural gala gown!

How Much She Spent
As a matter of fact, Jackie spent more than $145,000 on her wardrobe in 1961. Mind you, this is almost $50K more than the annual salary her husband received as the President of the United States. It sounds like it was worth it. The public adored her clothes and called her the most stylish woman in the world.
