Great pics Zubiaur, some I've never seen or they're different versions of some we've seen here. I noticed however you posted 2 or 3 pics that are from my site, I would appreciate if you post that they're from my site next time. ;)

Thanks for the information about the Marie Antoinette ball, do u know when was it held? There's some footage of it on youtube in Grace's A&E biography. I always had thought it had been a Rose Ball (one of the lost Rose Balls).

The Ball u're refering to Iceflower must be the Century of Monte Carlo Ball held in 1966...there's footage of it on youtube too on Grace's TF1 special.
 
How unusual to find a picture of Grace wearing spectacles at a big occasion. Sarah Bradford writes in her biography of Princess Grace that Grace tried to avoid wearing them in public because she thought it would disappoint her public. According to Bradford the first time she tried using contact lenses for an important event at the Seville Red Cross Ball, someone (possibly a maid or Grace herself) dropped them out of their cases & replaced them so that the left lens was in the case for the right eye & vice versa. Her eyes hurt & watered so much that she couldn't see. She never wore them again. So I guess most of the time she must have relied on Rainier to help her out.
 
Thanks for the information,Elly C.It is very curious:flowers:

Thanks a lot for the additional information :flowers:
That sounds great and it would be nice if you could
find a pic of her dress - the pic reminds me of the
fancy-ball that had been celebrated once, there she
also wore something extraordinary..

You've turned up some more gems here. I haven't seen a picture of Grace at the 1960 Cannes film festival before - only the 1972 visit with Hitchcock. Thank you :star:
 
I am so glad that you like them,Elly C:flowers:

:xmasbell::poinsettia::xmastree2::santa3:I hope you like the photos!.MERRY CHRISTMAS!
 
We love them, Zubiaur, as always :flowers:
You have some real jewels in your collection, several have been
posted before, but mostly in a different quality or with water-
marks so that I did not delete any of them so far :) That
first pic in your last post - the additional pic from the ball -
is absolutely wonderful, a great profile pic that shows all of
her stunning beauty.

Here are two pics of Grace as "Red Riding Hood" ;)
1. In her winterholidays in 1969
2. In Barcelona in 1977

** Grace 1969 ** Grace 1977 **
 
Zubiaur! Thank you for posting all of those great photos of dearly beloved Grace!!

Iceflower : Grace looks like a schoolgirl in those yellow skirts! oh so Cute!!



Here is a documentary that was recently added on YouTube about Grace Kelly as a Princess. I actually can't speak French but it was definitely a gem!! It has twelve parts ; this is the first!

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you have a great Holiday!

p/s: I'm new here but I Love Grace Kelly! She's my icon and idol!

Another film I would love to see (but I'm not sure who owns the rights )is Invitation to Monaco 1958 subtitled The Story of Princess Grace, produced by Richmond Film/Euan Llyod. Does anyone know anything about this film?
Meanwhile I echo Zubiaur's request that we all vote for the Wedding in Monaco to be released.
 
Thank you very much,Elly C for your support :flowers:Nobody seems to be interested in voting,we have now 288 votes and since I have asked people to vote,the number of votes is stopped in 288 votes.Please ,we need your votes.It is so easy.:flowers:
In relation to what you say Elly C,I am also interested in watching many documentaries Pincess Grace did,but I have no idea what to do:bang:
 
Glistening Seas

:ohmy: where do we go to vote. All that's under the poll section is to pick a movie which more closely describes one's life??? is thaaat it??? Some good choices but there was nothing about Pss Grace and Monaco wedding??? Didn't at one time someone make a video of the actual wedding already?? oooh good news--found it. that would have been wonderful happy greetings!!

In anycase where is the voting taking place "exactly"?? is it in the poll secton??:harvest::candycane::poinsettia::newyear:
 
I had the same problem so I just typed in the wedding in Monaco in the search section and when you go to the page it has a vote poll on the right side of the page
