The Princess Di Dress Exhibit is exquisite. To actually see the dresses she wore and life size photos of her wearing those dresses, at the special events she attended, was incredibly moving. You can’t help but feel her presence! If you admired Princess Di, you will thoroughly enjoy this exhibition!
