THE STORY OF: The Pink Dress Worn By Both Marilyn Monroe and

In 1953, the world got its first glimpse at what would become a famous outfit, when Marilyn Monroe donned a floor-length hot pink column dress in the pivotal music sequence in the film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, directed by Howard Hawks. The iconic pink silk dress was worn at a key point in Monroe’s career, and it has become practically synonymous with the legendary actress. Then, three decades after that debut, another famous blonde wore a replica of the pink gown as a tribute to her idol. One of Madonna’s most iconic looks from her career is also a floor-length hot pink dress, which she wore at a key point in her career, in the music video for her 1985 hit “Material Girl.”
