Princess Grace of Monaco was dressed in Dior for much of her royal life. A special exhibit of the former Grace Kelly’s wardrobe and jewelry is in Washington, D.C. at the Hillwood Estate Museum & Gardens.

In this video, I show designer fashion made for her by Marc Bohan, artistic director of Christian Dior in the 1960s and 1970s.

I start by giving you a tour of Hillwood, a hidden gem in northwest DC, with French gardens and an orchid greenhouse. The was owned by Marjorie Merriweather Post who also owned Mar-A-Lago, which is now Pres. Donald Trump's home.

The estate is one of my favorite places in D.C. because it's quiet and peaceful. The home was owned by Marjorie Post, an heiress, who bequeathed her home and collection. of French and Russian art. There are also stunning gardens and I walk you through the greenhouses of orchids. Interesting note: Post also owned Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, FL, now Pres. Donald Trump's home.
