EDMONTON — With news of the Duchess of Cambridge’s pregnancy causing excitement among fans of British royalty, the late grandmother of that yet-to-born heir to the throne is the focus of an exhibition coming to West Edmonton Mall.

“Diana, A Celebration,” chronicling the life and work of the Princess of Wales who died in a 1997 Paris car crash, has toured widely in the U.S. and has had only one other Canadian stop, at Toronto’s Design Exchange a decade ago.

Covering almost 650 square metres, the exhibition contains 150 objects including Diana’s wedding gown with its 7 1/2-metre-long train, as well as 28 of her designer dresses. It will run Feb. 9 to June 9 on Level 2 of the mall.
