Have you noticed the mantillas worn by the First Ladies in some of our pictures of Presidents talking with the Pope? The long black lace veil–and modest all-black clothing–is traditional for women to wear when meeting the Pope.

Probably the prize for most stylish wearing of a mantilla goes to First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy, who made the mantilla look chic during her visit to the Vatican in March of 1962.

The First Lady met with Pope John XXIII. This photo was taken in the American College of the Roman Catholic Church of the United States in Rome. Mrs. Kennedy is accompanied by Monsignor Martin J. O'Connor (at right). Students of the college lined the hallway and clapped as the two passed by.
