Jane Eyre, Jane Eyre
Charlotte Bronte's strong-willed protagonist Jane Eyre had no need to wear haute couture. Her job as a governess doesn't exactly require her to be cat walk ready, and she probably didn't know she was setting one of the greatest fashion trends of all-time when she began her babysitting gig.
Jane showed up day after day wearing black from head-to-toe...or if not black, then at least some very nice shade of heather grey. Jane set the stage for generations of women, and let us all know that when in doubt, dress in black and you're good to go. I'm certain her simple yet chic wardrobe is how she won over Mr. Rochester...
