Style Icon, Grace Kelly, at the Victoria & Albert Museum, London

The thing that made her stand out is what we call 'style'.  McCall's magazine, 1955





With a morning to spare before my long flight back to Sydney I paid a visit to the Victoria & Albert Museum, in Knightsbridge, London....directly opposite my hotel, so really no excuses not to pop in and absorb the style of one of the worlds most photographed Women of the 20th Century, Grace Kelly.



With her obvious classic beauty came elegance and glamour, so much so she came to symbolise the classic, understated look that she wore both on and off screen, and was known for her impeccable dress sense and style.



Through Grace Kelly's spectacular wardrobe, this tasteful exhibition takes the visitor through her life of adventures and stories, from Hollywood actress to a princess of one of Europe's oldest royal families.
If your visiting London this exhibition is well worth a visit, lust over the Chanel & Dior suits and dresses.....if only my wardrobe was so well 'suited'!
