No moth balls on these dresses – even after five decades.

Dolly Parton will play two sold out shows at the Grand Ole Opry on Oct. 12 in commemoration of her 50th anniversary as an Opry member. But the performances are just one element of the season-long Parton party. In celebration of the “I Will Always Love You” singer’s golden Opry anniversary, the Opry House will host an exclusive exhibit that features 24 wardrobe pieces Parton wore on stage at the Opry House and Ryman Auditorium over the last 50 years.

Dubbed “Dolly: My Opry Memories,” the exhibit will run Sept. 3 – Oct. 31. The dresses on display in the Opry House’s historic Studio A will include the dress Parton wore on the evening of her Opry induction in 1969, the gown worn to perform a duet with Vince Gill on “I Will Always Love You” in 1995 and the outfit she wore to surprise Reba McEntire during McEntire’s 40th Opry celebration. The exhibit will also include videos of Parton sharing some of her treasured Opry memories as well as performance clips that span the last five decades.

The Grand Ole Opry’s months-long celebration of the icon also involves the transformation of radio station WSM’s Opry Nashville streaming channel to Dolly Radio. Over the course of the exhibit, the stream will feature a wide array of Parton’s hit songs, Opry performances, interviews and more. Dolly Radio will be available at WSMonline.com and the station’s free mobile app.

In addition, the Opry Shop, located in the Opry House, will add a new line of Parton-inspired memorabilia.

Admission to "Dolly: My Opry Memories" is $17 or $12 when added to the purchase of an Opry backstage tour. Packages and tickets will go on sale 10 a.m. Wednesday at www.opry.com, which also lists available tour times.
