40. Not only did Marilyn’s famous “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” dress eventually go on to sell for the big bucks, it was so tight that it had to be sewn right onto her body!
This makes you wonder how they managed to get the dress off of her without ruining it. Clearly it was in good shape, because someone spent over a million dollars to bring it home!
What do you think? If you had that kind of money, would you spend it on a collector’s item like Marilyn Monroe’s dress?
What a fascinating and tragic life! It’s easy to see why Marilyn Monroe conjures such strong feelings from so many people. She truly was one-of-a-kind!
