Grace
had slender arms and fine shoulders, she made the most of these features picking
off the shoulder or thin strapped dresses.
Grace is one of the only old stars who was barely ever seen with a fur stole.
Grace instead chose sheer wraps or scarves if she needed a little coverage.
Back in the 1950s Grace was spotted toting around a large bag by French designer
Hermes Birkin. The bag became a must-have item after she was seen with it and
ever since it has been nicknames The Kelly Bag. Even today numerous celebrities
still carry around the design and the bag commands a high price and waiting
list.
In Rear Window, Grace plays a model who says she
never wears the same dress twice (well, she must have had one big wardrobe).
That, however, isn't a rule Grace followed. Of course, an Oscars dress
wouldn't be worn again but Grace was loyal to the clothes she bought - there was
no throw-away fashion for her. She bought good, expensive pieces that
suited her and that she could wear and wear again.
Grace's Fashion Must-Haves
Slim Woolen Skirts
A camel coat
White Gloves - Always elegant - even years before
becoming a Princess - Grace would wear short gloves in the day and often long
ones in the evening.
