Fifty years after her visit to Ravello, Jacqueline Kennedy is still
remembered with great affection.The First Lady spent some memorable days here
and, feeling very much at home, she promised to return.A promise she was never
to fulfil as her husband was assassinated the following year.
As a memorial to a very special lady, Armando Malafronte has dedicated a
special fashion collection with a linen sheath dress and foulard decorated with
rose petals as the centre-piece.The design captures Jackie's style, glamour and
sophistication.

She is still remembered by the residents of Ravello shopping and eating in
the many "ristorante" of the town.Her favourite dish was spaghetti with
courgettes and fried onion with eggs-a sort of vegetarian carbonara.
In her honour the Capri pants and leather sandals much favoured by the
First Lady are still available in the shops here.The owner of "Chez Caprice" is
now offering the same design but they are now embossed with Svarovski
crystals.
This collection is dedicated to a very special person with a unique sense
of chic and glamour.
Arrivederci Jacqueline
