Product Description
Philadelphia-born Grace Kelly rocketed to Hollywood stardom, becoming a major box-office draw and winning an Academy Award. She also was an icon of classic American style, which became known as the “Grace Kelly Look.” After examining the development of the star’s on- and off-screen style, the book focuses on her magnificent wedding dress, designed by Helen Rose and made by MGM Studios under top secret security. Public interest in the star’s wedding dress was intense, and it remains one of the most popular objects in the Museum’s collection.
Stunning color images detail the wedding dress, accessories, and attendants’ dresses, which are also owned by the Museum. Numerous historical photographs illustrate the actress’s career, style, and famous wedding in Monaco.

A must read
If, like me, you are a huge Grace Kelly fan, you will not want to be without this book.
It goes into detail about Grace's wardrobe, and in particular the wedding dress. I have read a great deal about Grace Kelly, and this book managed to surprise me with quite a bit of new details.
Finally, there are some great pictures of the wedding dress- which is probably the nicest wedding dress in history!
A must have for any Grace Kelly fan
If you are a fan of Princess Grance, then you must have this book! My husband gave it to me as surprise and I must say it is one of the best surprises I have ever received. The book has many photos and goes into much detail about all the aspects of the wedding and the events leading up to it. If there is one book to have about Grace Kelly, this is it!
A Beautiful Depiction of Grace Kelly's Wedding Dress
This book gives a very detailed representation of Grace Kelly's Wedding Dress. It also gives lots of details of the events leading up to her wedding day. It is not a biography of her life. It focuses on her wedding day and the events leading up to it with the wedding day itself being the culmination.
