Interesting dress, on fine sources, no copyvio obvious. I like the hook, but suggest to drop "Bouvier" - she is better known as Jackie Kennedy - and to link zibeline as in the article. - The image is licensed and serves well as illustration of why this colour. For formality, you still have to add (pictured) to the hook. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:22, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ALT0a preferred --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:18, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that the image could be cropped a bit for this purpose, but even if not, she stands out. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:20, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Obviously should be cropped. Also, why not:
- Alt1 ... that the apricot dress (pictured) that Jacqueline Kennedy wore on her 1962 tour of India was copied for a Barbie doll costume? Philafrenzy (talk) 12:21, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  Thank you... sounds good too. Whispyhistory (talk) 12:46, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  The pic should not be cropped too much, - still sky and ground and some people looking pale in comparison. In ALlt1, I believe that pictured should come after India, because not only the dress is pictured but that dress worn in India.
  
  I approve Alt1 as well, but think the original is more focused, and told me something I was happy to learn. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:51, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
