Possibly the three most stylish women ever to hold the position of First Lady (for non-USAians, that means wife of the American President) in the United States are Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, Dorothea Payne Todd "Dolley" Madison, and Frances Folsom Cleveland. For the Love of Opera Gloves presents a collection of images of Mrs. Cleveland (who, when she married Grover Cleveland in 1885, became the youngest woman ever to be First Lady) in the height of 1880's fashion, including long gloves.
