Grace Kelly – Fashion Now

Born in September 1929, Grace Kelly always seeked stardom. After moving to Hollywood she shot to success in films such as High Noon and won a Golden Globe for Mogambo. Soon she was Hitchcocks star girl and became an icon of style, beauty and femininity.

Now there is an exhibition dedicated to her at the Victoria and Albert museum. Here you can see memorabilia and clothes from her life and daw inspiration from her style. We sent our fabulous fashion illustrator Paula Arkell to check it out.

She came back with these gorgeous illustrations. Almost 30 years after Grace’s death Fashion Capital give you a guide to how to shop the updated Grace Kelly style now!
