Group - C Z Guest

Lucille Douglas Cochrane (February 19, 1920 in Boston, Massachusetts – November 8, 2003 in Old Westbury, Long Island, New York) was an American socialite who achieved a degree of fame as a fashion icon. She was frequently seen wearing elegant designs by famous designers like Mainbocher. Her unfussy, clean-cut style was seen as typically American. Her father, Alexander Lynde Cochrane, was an investment banker. She acquired C.Z. from her younger brother. She dabbled in acting, including an appearance in the Ziegfeld Follies in 1944. On March 8, 1947, she married Winston Frederick Churchill Guest (1906-1982), a polo player, a member of the Guest family, grandson of Henry Phipps, a great-grandson of the seventh Duke of Marlborough, and Winston Churchill's second cousin. Ernest Hemingway was best man at the wedding, which took place in Havana. The couple had two children, Alexander and Cornelia; Cornelia was named the 1980s "Deb of the Decade".
