"I like to be a free spirit. Some don't like that, but that's the way I am." – Princess Diana.



Even if this isn't one of my favorite dresses, Princess Di's wedding dress is one of the most iconic bridal gowns in the history of fashion.

The David and Elizabeth Emanuel-designed gown, which features 10,000 mother-of-pearl sequins and pearls and a 25-foot train, debuts Saturday as part of the "Diana: A Celebration" exhibit at Mall of America in Bloomington, Minn., which will run through June 10.

FYI, in true diva fashion, Diana also had a backup wedding gown in case the design of the first one had leaked.

In addition to the bridal gown from Diana's 1981 wedding, the traveling exhibit includes 28 of Diana's designer dresses, family heirlooms and personal keepsakes like home movies and photos. Now THAT I would love to see!

Not sure if this exhibit is coming to NYC anytime soon but if it does you can bet I will be in line!
