Jacqueline, Comtesse de Ribes (b. July 14th 1929) is a French aristocrat and fashion icon. She has been a member of International Best Dressed List since 1962. Having collaborated with personal dressmakers for many decades, in the 1980s she created her own-label ready-to-wear line which was immensely popular with the glamourous stars of the day including Joan Collins and Cher. In 2015 The Metropolitan Museum of Art held 'The Art of Style', an exhibition featuring items from de Ribes's wardrobe. To read more about Jacqueline de Ribes CLICK HERE
