London 1962

By Steve Brawley

The pink suit's first major public appearance was on in March 26, 1962 in London. Jackie wore the suit and the matching pillbox hat as she and her sister Lee Radziwill arrived in London after their famous trip to India.

She stayed at her sister Lee's house and had lunch with Queen Elizabeth II on March 28. It's important to note that the suit saw many happy times long before those dark moments in Dallas the next year.

There is newsreel coverage of her arriving in London (screen shot below).
