Lee Radziwill died Friday in New York. She was 85.
A slender, sloe-eyed and stylish brunette beauty, she was Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis’ younger sister. She was born Caroline Lee Bouvier on March 3, 1933 to Janet Norton Lee and stockbroker John Vernou Bouvier III, known as “Black Jack.” Another of his nicknames, as Lee pointed out, was “the Black Orchid.” Lee had three careers — briefly, as an actress, promoted by her friend Truman Capote but reviled by the critics; later, and more successfully, a short stint as an interior designer, and then as a brand ambassador, public relations executive and special events coordinator for Giorgio Armani.
In the past, she suffered from age-related disease, while, according to sources close to her, over the past week, she was in good shape and still extremely present and elegant.
Radziwill was considered a true fashion icon thanks to an elegance and sophistication that she demonstrated not only with her personal style, but also through her work as an interior decorator. She also stood out in the international jet set with her sense of humour and her kindness.
