It was exactly 55 years and 10 days back in the history when Oscar winning American actress Grace Kelly wed Ranier III, Prince of Monaco in comparison to Kate Middleton’s wedding with Prince William.
Though Kate Middleton was looking dainty and fairy like, her wedding gown which remained a secret even for Prince William to this date had a striking similarity to what Grace Kelly wore more than half a century ago.
Both brides chose V-shaped low neckline lace gowns with ivory and white satin gazer with the addition that Kate Middleton dress has French Chantilly lace for her gown.
While both ladies were from Commoners, there are more for striking a comparison between the two;
Kate Middleton is described as beautiful like a normal girl while Grace Kelly was described as an angelic beauty.
Kate Middleton works for her parents’ party planning business while Grace Kelly herself was a model turned actress.
While Kate Middleton wore the already under media attention ring of Princess Diana which is an 18 carat sapphire but Grace Kelly was graced with two engagement rings by Prince Rainier III, one with a Cartier eternity band full of rubies and diamonds—the colors of Monaco while the other one was a 12 carat emerald cut diamond flanked in two baguettes.
