Isabel Eberstadt (1933-2007) epitomized the “society fashion celebrity” of the 1960s. She modeled for major fashion magazines, and appeared in Andy Warhol’s 1964 film, The Thirteen Most Beautiful Women. Eberstadt, the daughter of poet Ogden Nash, was also a writer and a patron of the arts. She was one of the first to pick up on new fashion trends, and her daring choices were lauded on “Best Dressed” lists. Eberstadt purchased this suit from Courrèges’ first collection.
