Lee Stole the Show
The sisters had spent their lives battling with one another, primarily for their father’s attention. Their feud lasted years, and nothing could stop it, not even a day dedicated to Jackie. Jackie had her coming-out ball in August of 1947. This is a formal celebration at which young women from upper-class households are welcomed into adulthood. Everyone else at this gathering wears cream-colored gowns, but Lee has different intentions. Even if the day was all about her sister, she wasn’t going to give her all of her attention. Lee arrived in a bright pink dress embellished with glittering rhinestones. Her strategy worked, and everyone stopped and stared. According to Vanity Fair, Lee “loved color, and she enjoyed being noticed.”
