Was Grace Kelly Really That Much More Stylish Than Kate Middleton?

As far as royal brides go, the Duchess of Cambridge is top of the pops in my book.  However, Conde Nast Brides readers decided that Grace Kelly, who married Prince Rainier of Monaco in 1956, outshone the former Catherine Middleton enough to take the top spot. 

Fine.  OK.  Both ladies wore a similar design of lace and satin, though Catherine chose Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, while Princess Grace wore a creation by MGM costumer Helen Rose.  I found Grace’s design to be too severe, while Catherine’s dress just seemed to open up like the flower it was meant to “emulate.”

Princess Anne was #10, followed by the Princess of Wales at #11.  I’m surprised not to see the Queen’s younger sister’s Princess Margaret make the cut, seeing as she looked far better than some of the broads on this list.  While we’re at it, why wasn’t Her Majesty included?
