The Swan (1956) | Costume Design

The Swan was the second to last film Grace Kelly made before she married into royalty, so it was fittingly a princess story. Grace’s gowns were designed by MGM costume designer Helen Rose, and they are the quintessential Edwardian dresses in white and lace.

The film’s exterior scenes were shot on location in North Carolina, at the 1895 Biltmore Estate of George W. Vanderbilt in Asheville.
