Grace Jones is undeniably fabulous. The Jamaican supermodel, singer, and actress is more than just a triple threat. She is also a performer, club-goer, memoir author, and of course a style icon. Being a successful model in 1970s New York was Jones’ start and her career only continued: with her albums ‘Portfolio’ and ‘Nightclubbing’, time on the big screen in A View to Kill, and being a known face at Studio 54 parties. This doesn’t even cover it all and there is still no question Grace Jones is accomplished.
