Athina Onassis’s Return to Couture Evokes Jackie’s Elegance
Jackie and Athina are said to have never met. A great style icon of the twentieth century, Jackie married her second husband in 1968. When Aristotle died in 1975, he left his daughter Christina as his only heir, after his son Alexander died in a 1973 plane crash. When Christina died in 1988, Athina, her then-three-year-old girl, grew up with her father’s family, far from the flashes and from Greece, the country of the Onassis family.Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Aristotle Onassis in 1970.
