Love Story's Costumes Highlight CBK's Quiet-Luxury Legend

CNN Style praises the Love Story miniseries for its costume design, which captures Carolyn Bessette Kennedy’s understated chic and contrasts with JFK Jr.’s laid-back approach. The standout slip dress and Prada coats, along with Levi denim details, help convey CBK’s era-defining style. After initial backlash to appearances, the production hired Rudy Mance to source authentic pieces and consult fashion historians, underscoring how costuming deepens understanding of CBK and her influence rather than forcing exact replicas.
