Countess Consuelo Crespi, R.I.P.

Style icon and sister in law of my personal fashion idol, Princess Luciana. (Her book jacket quote reads: "Every year making up takes five minutes longer.")




Read her obit here.

That's the Countess' SI cover from August 26, 1957 | Volume 7, Issue 9.

A twin, at that. They were my parents' ages. She lived a full life, RIP.

I have worked for the countess when a teenager and just found out about her death... Im speechless...shocked and very sad. What an incredible woman. She meant A LOT to me... a lot.
