What was Marilyn Monroe's pink dress called?
1 Answer

Marilyn Monroe's pink dress wasn't called anything in particular when it debuted in 1953. However, some people now call it the "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" dress, after the name of the film in which she sported the strapless pink piece. Others refer to it as the pink Travilla dress in honor of the man who designed it, William Travilla. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of vintage dresses from some of the world's top boutiques.
