It was just announced that Sotheby's is set to auction off some of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy’s most famous coats.

According to Terenzio, Bessette-Kennedy gifted her the all-over leopard print coat as a last-minute outfit fix before Terenzio was heading out for a date. The coat is being offered with a low estimate of US$20,000.

Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy would have likely been embarrassed by the cult following that now surrounds her personal style. The former Calvin Klein publicist turned wife of John F. Kennedy Jr. was notoriously private and self-effacing,

At Sotheby's second annual Fashion Icons sale, three of Bessette-Kennedy's garments will be up for grabs. According to the auction house, the items are appearing on the market for the first time and were originally gifted to Bessette-Kennedy's close friend and John F. Kennedy Jr.'s assistant RoseMarie Terenzio.

There is also a Prada wool coat up for sale, which Bessette-Kenedy donned throughout the later half of the ’90s, including while en route to Bill Clinton’s inauguration on January 19, 1997. It is assumed to be from Prada’s autumn/winter 1996/1997 collection, and is estimated to sell for $15,000-$20,000.

Kennedy's closet will be up for auction at Sothebys starting November 17. See which pieces will be for sale, here.
