Marilyn Monroe’s dress sold for a record price at auction

Marilyn Monroe’s pink Pucci dress was sold at Julien’s Auctions’ ICONS auction at NYA Studios East in Los Angeles. The lot went under the hammer at a record price for the brand of 325 thousand dollars (about 30 million rubles). “The long-sleeved silk jersey dress set a new Pucci world record as the brand’s most expensive item sold at auction,” the auction house said in a press release.

The auction also included other personal items that once belonged to Marilyn Monroe: images from filming and various items from her wardrobe. For example, a black dress created by costume designer William Travilla sold for $127,000. The iconic actress wore this in The Seven Year Itch.
