The Timeless Fashion of Grace Kelly
On 17 April 2010, London’s Victoria and Albert Museum will debut Grace Kelly Style Icon, a look at the fashion sense of the celebrated actress and tragic princess whose name is shorthand for flawless sophistication.
Stretching from her movie star debut in the 1950s through her wedding to Prince Rainier of Monaco and into her glamorous, secluded life in the 1970s, the exhibition also tells the story of a dramatic shift in international fashion.
There is also a wide range of events at the V&A to complement the exhibition, including films screenings, a film and fashion study day, a short course on 1950s haute couture and practical workshops. Visit the website to find out more www.vam.ac.uk.
Exhibition runs from 17 April – 26 September 2010
Opening hours: 10.00 to 17.45 daily, Fridays till 22.00
