Description
This red taffeta skirted dress was owned and worn by Marilyn Monroe and features her authenticated signature on the inside collar. This dress has been in a private collection for over 25 years. This dress is in great condition for its age. As the most beautiful and desired woman of her day, every move Marilyn Monroe made in public was filmed or photographed. Her image was everywhere, making her into something more than just a movie-star – she had become a living icon. More so than any other actress of her time, Marilyn was very completely conscious of her image, and every aspect of her appearance was carefully crafted by the star, from her platinum blonde hair to the clothes she seemed to wear so effortlessly. Her impeccable taste in dresses is one of the main reasons Marilyn is still revered today as a fashion symbol. Who can forget the white dress she wore in the famous subway grate scene in “The Seven Year Itch”, the blue cocktail number she wowed the troops in on her USO tour in 1954, or the skin-tight flesh-toned gown she donned while cooing “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” to JFK in 1962? Marilyn’s choice of dress and style is so intertwined with the memory of her that the two are inseparable today. The signature on the dress as well as the signature on the Marilyn Monroe Productions check have been forensically authenticated by Guaranteed Forensic Authenticators. Guaranteed Forensic Authenticators Guarantees their Opinion. A complete report of the forensic evaluation is available to any owner of the item current and future. Note: The receipt from the cleaners is provided with the dress but it has not been authenticated.
