Farah Pahlavi, Empress Of Iran, Is Taking Her Story To Hollywood
Serendipity Group has purchased Farah Pahlavi's life rights is is making a documentary and a scripted TV project about the former Queen of Iran.
Pahlavi, who in her heyday was compared to Jacqueline Kennedy thanks to their fashion sense, made her debut as the Shahbanou of Iran on her wedding day in December 1959 wearing a gown designed by Yves Saint Laurent during his time at Dior Maison, with accessories (crown, necklace and earrings) created by Van Cleef and Arpels. His name is Mowgli, a King Charles Spaniel that was gifted to her by grandaughter Noor, the first daughter of the Queen’s eldest son Reza Pahlavi, Crown Prince of Iran and his wife Princess Yasmine. She recalls a doctor in the U.S. who left for Iran a few years ago and visited a leper colony — as she did extensively in the late 1960s to help break the stigma against those infected — and bumped into people who remember her and sent along messages of gratitude which she refers to as “such a great present for me to hear.”
