It was one of the moments that catapulted Kylie Minogue to worldwide fame.<\/p>\n
More than 20 million people tuned in to watch her Neighbours character Charlene Mitchell walk down the aisle to marry Scott Robinson, portrayed by Jason Donovan.<\/p>\n
And now fans of the soap can see the famous white dress that Kylie wore for the wedding in July 1987 after it was flown 10,000 miles from Melbourne, Australia to London to go on show at an exhibition.<\/p>\n
The new romantic style wedding frock, which was designed by a local bridal shop, will be alongside Guy Pearce’s character Mike Young’s leather jacket which he wore throughout his three year stint on the show in the later 80s at The Neighbours Experience in Shoreditch.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Harold Bishop – played by Ian Smith – had a much talked about Salvation Army outfit which will also go on show.<\/p>\n
