Steal Carolyn Bessette-Kennedys 1988 sweater look for only $39

Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy has always been idolized for her understated beauty that shone like a jewel while she was alive.Now with FX’s “Love Story” starring Sarah Pidgeon, we’re reliving the magic all over again.The J.Crew rollneck sweater, a revival of 1988 heritage fashion, has become a cultural phenomenon on Pidgeon after debuting it in episode 5, as if borrowing it from her lover, JFK Jr.

It is officially the most iconic knitwear moment since Meg Ryan’s fisherman sweater in “When Harry Met Sally.”You don’t need a Kennedy-sized trust fund to look this classic.While the J.Crew original is a dream, the real secret of the CBK look lies in the texture and the roll.

I found an incredible alternative on Amazon under $40 that hits all the same notes.The 100% cotton weight, the slouchy fit and that iconic rolled neckline all hit the look and feel we want.According to shoppers, it’s an ultra-soft, 60% cotton rollneck sweater with a chunky knit and chic rolled edges that perfectly capture the iconic late 80s look.

Available in sizes Small through X-Large, it comes in multiple colors.This machine-washable staple offers a cozy, slouchy fit that delivers the high-end J.Crew vibe for under $30 with fast Prime shipping.

This oversized cable-knit sweater is available in 16 different shades and comes in exclusive sizing from extra small to XXL.Available in multiple colors with all the frills a girly girl would want.
