    Comment

    This is a re-created dress from the film Niagara (1953). Marilyn Monroe sizzled in this dramatic film noir movie, and this was one of the most iconic dresses from that film. I commissioned it expressly for a Marilyn tribute exhibition I held some 15 years ago. It is said that Marilyn was so taken with the dress that she wore it to several publicity shoots independent of the movie.
