In 2011, Mattel released three Princess Grace collector Barbies. Her outfits included her dress from "To Catch a Thief," pictured here, her wedding dress, and the dress she wore to the 1955 Cannes Film Festival, where she met her future royal husband.
On "Mad Men," January Jones's Betty Draper channels the beauty of her contemporary icon. In the episode "Shoot," Betty is recruited to model in a Coca-Cola ad because she's a dead ringer for Grace Kelly. Unfortunately, they decide to go with someone a little more "Audrey Hepburn."
Before she was Her Serene Highness the Princess of Monaco, Grace Kelly had another very impressive title: Oscar winner! She won the best actress Academy Award in 1954 for her role in "The Country Girl." Much of her legacy lives on through her films, including Alfred Hitchcock classics like "To Catch a Thief" and "Rear Window."
Grace Kelly stars in classic movies, but films have also been made about her. There's a new one on the horizon, but if you're looking to check one out now, consider the documentary Grace Kelly: American Princess, or the 1980s-tastic made-for-TV movie, The Grace Kelly Story.
