Wow. I would have thought she would be higher. I mean, she practically defined style for a generation. I can't wait to see who is above her, if she is only number three. I guess you'll have the Queen, but who else?
Is this really her in the top photo? It looks a bit like "Meaty" Maid Monica Lewinsky. "The Heavy Hipped, Thick Thighed, Former Presidential Temptress"
LPC - No Wallis for this list, sorry! I never thought she looked that elegant......or maybe I just never noticed her while looking at the Duke's wardrobe.
Matt - Sorry to disappoint, but the Queen did not make the top five......top ten definitely, but not five.
I agree; the top Photo looks like an impersonater. Accept no substitutes! Many said sister Lee Radziwill was the better dresser.I look forward to C.Z. Guest and Grace Kelly.
Richard, I say Audrey Hepburn or perhaps Grace Kelly...will there be an honorable mention list? I certainly hope so! These lists are fun to read, so subjective but that is OK.
I find it funny that you did not notice Wallis Simpson-it makes you wonder what made the Duke saw!
Good choice with the former First Lady. If I may suggest, look at her official White House Portrait by Aaron Shilker. It is a masterpiece, as is the the portrait he did of JFK (also the official White House Portrait). Cheers! Smirnoff is best.

If you are going to put Wallis Simpson at the top of this list I will cry Anglophilic fraud....

The Kennedys were catholic?
The Kennedys were catholic! Pretty sure that disqualifies her from best dressed WASPs. Sorry.
