On Monday, July 20, 2026, Prince Albert and Princess Charlene attended a screening of the restored version of the film Le Mariage de Monaco (The Wedding of Monaco) at the Prince’s Palace. A restored version of Jean Masson’s 1956 film was screened on a large screen in the Courtyard of Honour of the Prince’s Palace before an audience of 450 people.
The film contains never-before-seen footage of the events of April 19, 1956, when Grace Kelly married Rainier III and became a princess. The footage was shot by Jean Masson, who made the half-hour film that was screened in cinemas for two years, from 1956 to 1958. The reels and raw footage of his film, Le Mariage de Monaco, were found in old boxes in the projection room that Princess Grace had set up inside the palace.
J'aime beaucoup la couleur et les plis. En ce moment, j'aime moins le sans manches.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful evening gold dress, just as good as the last one.
ReplyDeleteMonaco needs to let Grace Kelly rest in peace, sheovershadows her children and grandchildren!
A very nice dress on P. Charlene, matching shoes as well. The colour is lovely.
ReplyDeleteVery nice presentation.
Quelle merveilleuse silhouette dans cette robe dont le plissé lui convient bien ; bon choix que les chaussures de la même couleur !

Un omaggio continuo alla splendida Grace.
ReplyDeleteCharlene ancora in modalità dea greca, bel vestito in versione corta.
Quelle magnifique robe

Charlene can wear almost about anything and look reasonably good in it. But I would not have missed just this garment as a proof thereof. It is plain and simple and ot really attractive. The whole body pleating directs the eye to prominent parts, in this case: the breasts and I think nobody really needs or values this feature. Other features are not really detectable.
ReplyDeleteLovely colour. Draping of the pleats on the top is not the best look, your eye is drawn to two orbs. The skirt is nice and swishy, shoes a perfect match. I do prefer her hair down as it softens her overall look.
ReplyDeleteElegant and beautiful dress. Her feeling/sense for fashion is excellent.
ReplyDeleteEur600+ for a dress to wear to watch a 30 minute movie and is 99% guaranteed to only be worn once (Charlene’s normal) is extravagant … but right now girls the dress (not in gold) is on special around Eur300 which is a very good price for a very rewearable article of good quality. I do wonder how we’ve arrived at the point where women’s public figure fashion has an unwritten “wear something new” emphasis, versus the much better logic of men’s fashion (buy a well tailored suit, and wear it a lot - just change the accessories for a small difference if you need, e.g. a tie ). Women’s fashion has an implicit high waste / low sustainability inherent and it is utter madness.
ReplyDeleteBut more than that, I wonder how Albert feels as he watches the movie; I would be very sad to see footage of my dead parents, especially in public with others watching.
