When Princess Charlene first joined the Monegasque royal family, her transformation from an Olympian to a princess was not easy. During the earlier days of her courtship with Prince Albert, the competitive swimmer found that learning about the fashion world was way more difficult than she could have imagined. As she told Vogue in a rare interview, "Finding my fashion feet has certainly been the biggest challenge." On one occasion, Charlene even admitted that, prior to developing her own style, "I was literally a fish out of water. I thought it was all fun, fun, fun, and didn't give my outfit any thought."
These days, though, Charlene has become a fashionista — and it seems that she is determined to give Princess Gabriella the stylistic education that she once lacked. In 2022, the mother on the mission took her adorable daughter to the Monte-Carlo Fashion Awards, where she could learn a thing or two about how some of Europe's most elite women dress. Ultimately, it is believed that this extravagant type of outing could help prepare Gabriella for dressing like a royal.
So far, the young princess has seemed to enjoy the fashion world. In an interview with Monaco Matin, Charlene shared that Gabriella, "Like all little girls her age, loves princess dresses, doing her hair, and even trying on my lipsticks. Gabriella has her own style, and I like to encourage that individuality."
