When her husband was assassinated, she refused to change out of her blood-stained clothes, saying, \u2018I want them to see what they\u2019ve done.\u2019 The image of the delicate pink suit splattered with blood is one of the most haunting juxtapositions in modern history. Beauty and horror. Poise and devastation,” she wrote<\/a> in her caption.<\/p>\n WATCH YOUR FAVORITE HALLOWEEN MOVIES ON TUBI<\/a><\/p>\n “Her decision not to change clothes, even after being encouraged to, was an act of extraordinary bravery. It was performance, protest, and mourning all at once. A woman weaponizing image and grace to expose brutality. It\u2019s about trauma, power, and how femininity itself is a form of resistance. Long live Jackie O.”<\/p>\n Julia Fox defended her choice, writing, “I\u2019m dressed as Jackie Kennedy in the pink suit. Not as a costume, but as a statement.

Very distasteful. Imagine what her family thinks when they see this and have to revisit this horrific day,” one comment read.<\/p>\n CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER<\/a><\/p>\n U.S. President John F.
