Lucy Duff-Gordon

She was a fashion designer who made evening wear, tea gowns, lingerie, and movie costumes. Duff-Gordon was among the survivors who were surrounded by controversies. It was said that she and her husband, Cosmo, boarded  Lifeboat 1 with only 12 people on it when in fact, it can accommodate 40 people. Rumor has it that Cosmo paid the crewman not to go back to rescue others.

After the accident, Duff-Gordon once again survived another sinking
