Marilyn Monroe’s pink dress is an iconic cultural and fashion moment. While Marilyn Monroe is the embodiment of the glamorous Hollywood image, the dress is more than that. It a symbol of what Marilyn represents, an empowering woman who’s beautiful both on the outside and inside. It’s been over fifty years since her passing, but our love affair with her has only gotten stronger. Every girl wanted to be her, and every guy wanted her.
Marilyn Monroe’s pink dress while she sang Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend in the movie, A Gentleman Prefers Blondes is an iconic cinematic and fashion moment. The pink dress, and pink gloves paired with diamonds, has become symbolic of Marilyn Monroe’s glamorous image. Since then many celebrities have paid homage or copied her classic look. Kylie posed in the same getup for Halloween, looking almost identical. The most striking copy was Anna Nicole Smith who sees Marilyn Monroe as an inspiration. They both are blondes who get underestimated. Others who see Marilyn as inspiration include Paris Hilton, Ariana Grande, Camilla Cabello, and Nicole Scherzinger. The most iconic homage was Madonna’s 1985 Material Girl. It became an iconic cultural moment as Madonna channeled her inner Marilyn Monroe.
