Lovers of the “quiet luxury” trend and the ‘90s nostalgia rejoice—an astute TikToker has now discovered that eternal fashion icon Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy’s exact headbands are still available at C.O. Bigelow in Manhattan s Greenwich Village neighborhood.
The Sixth Avenue shop opened as a true apothecary in 1838. Since then, the store has expanded to include an in-house line of beauty, wellness, and lifestyle products—including the flat-band tortoise shell headband that Bessette-Kennedy used to hold back her golden-blonde hair.
A representative from C.O. Bigelow confirms that Bessette-Kennedy was “a frequent shopper” and that the style she s wearing in the famed paparazzi shot actually comes in two different versions: The classic thicker one in the photo, and a thinner version. Both come in shades like tortoise, Tokyo (beige and white), demi-blonde (yellowy-beige), bone, and leopard print, and cost between $20 and $30.
Headbands are no longer for the Blair Waldorfs among us—we re been seeing the accessory appearing on all manner of cool-girl celebrities like Jennifer Lawrence, Bella Hadid, and Sofia Richie
While the headbands are not available for purchase on C.O. Bigelow s website, the team noted that they will take phone orders—appropriately 90s, we think!
