Description
Princess Paola of Liege (R) and an unidentified friend smile as they walk down the steps of St. Peter's Basilica, after they were stopped by Vatican gendarmes from entering the Basilica because they wore mini-skirts, August 23. Usually women in mini-skirts are not allowed to visit St. Peter's, but recently the gendarmes have begun enforcing the rule more strictly.
