Carolyn Bessette and Gwyneth Paltrow were both beautiful, blonde, 5ft 9in tall, cool characters representing the epitome of nineties minimalism style. This was confirmed on February 18 by former Calvin Klein staffer Kara Mendelsohn, who revealed Klein literally 'had her helicoptered in' to attend one of his runway extravaganzas in 1998. When there were pictures of Gwyneth in the papers, Bessette, who viewed her as "little miss perfect," would make cutting remarks about her.' Meanwhile, Paltrow has passed down her substantial collection of vintage Calvin Klein skirts, tube skirts and slip dresses to her lookalike daughter Apple Martin. The 21-year-old Vanderbilt University student donned the same plunging backless Calvin Klein LBD her famous mother wore to the Emma premiere in 1996, to the Marty Supreme premiere on December 16.
