A successful popular jazz musician C.K. Dexter-Haven(Bing Crosby) is divorced from wealthy Newport, Rhode Island socialite Tracy Samantha Lord(Grace Kelly) is now engaged to socially prominent and snobbish George Kittredge(John Lund). As Dexter tries to win back Tracy, a third man shows up in her life to complicate the situation: a reporter from Spy, a fictional tabloid newspaper, Mike Connor(Frank Sinatra), comes to cover the nuptials. Thus Tracy has to choose from three very different men during a course of self-discovery.
In this lighthearted music comedy, Grace Kelly as Tracy Lord showcases some of the most elegant movie costumes in her decade long movie career, like the golden sleeveless shirt dress and the white Grecian style bath suit coverup.

Mary Elizabeth Donaldson was born on 5 February 1972 in Tasmania, Australia, to Scottish parents.

In 2000 Mary met Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark at the Slip Inn, a pub in Sydney when the prince was visiting Australia during the 2000 Summer Olympics, and on 8 October 2003, she was engaged to the prince.
The next year, on 14 May 2004, Mary was married to Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark in Copenhagen Cathedral, thus becoming Crown Princess Mary of Denmark.

For her wedding, she wore a ivory silk duchess satin gown with scoop neckline and three quarter sleeves with open slit. The fitting bodice is paired with a full skirt lined with 31 metres of tulle edged in French Chantilly lace underneath. The full skirt is overlayed with panels opening from her hip, revealing 8 meters of Irish heirloom lace in the folds.

The lace was part of the original wedding gift to Crown Princess Margaret of Sweden, Fredrik’s great-grandmother.

The veil worn by Mary Donaldson also belonged to Crown Princess Margaret. It was anchored with Mary’s wedding tiara, which she paired with earrings of diamonds set in platinum with South Sea Island pearls created by Marianne Dulong.

On this special day, Mary paid homage to her mother(who passed away in 1997) as well as her homeland Australia.

She had her mother’s wedding ring sewn in the bodice of her wedding gown, close to her heart.

Mary’s bouquet, incorporating eucalyptus, roses and a sprig of myrtle, was sentimental tribute to her Australian root. After the wedding, she had the bouquet sent to Scotland to rest upon her mother’s grave.

Elegant style icon wardrobe essentials: Jane Birkin in jeans

13/12/2022

Jane Birkin knew how to wear a pair of jeans. Tattered and patched, wide-legged and straight-legged, belted and un-belted, she had worn them all. And she loved her jeans long, and super long, and longer, to accentuate her already long legs. She pairs her jeans with simple cotton t-shirts, mostly short-sleeved, but also with blouses, knit and crochet tops, tucked in, cropped or knotted, or with a handsome jacket thrown on, cropped or not; and under her often over long jeans, she wore anything from ballet flats, high heels to boots, and then she carried her bucket basket to complete her outfit.

Although the 1970s, Jane Birkin had decorated and swept the Paris Street with her jeans, in all styles, worn in all manners, her young and long hair up or down.
