Those seeking contemporary luxury looks and in-demand street-style fits can indulge in designs by Bottega Veneta, Miu Miu and Loro Piana, while pieces from Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Versace endure as examples of fashion’s most covetable goods. 

The future — and glamorous past — of fashion is yours for the wearing. Find vintage clothing and accessories for sale on 1stDibs, including designs by Balenciaga, Valentino, Celine, Loewe and more.

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024
    Andy Warhol painted Marilyn Monroe as a commentary on the media and celebrity culture. The American artist was quick to jump on mass media’s penchant for treating glamour and tragedy with equal weight. Monroe’s suicidal overdose in 1962 was ideal fodder, and he reproduced her visage dozens of times, first painting the canvas with splotches of pigment to denote her hair, eyeshadow and lips, then printing the black photographic silkscreen, taken from a 1953 publicity still, on the surface, either alone, doubled or repeated in a grid. By reproducing her image, Warhol sought to show how Monroe's fame and status as a sex symbol transformed her from being an individual person to a mass-market commodity. His work provided a sharp rebuke to the media's obsessive intrusion into the lives of celebrities. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Andy Warhol art.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024
    How much Marilyn Monroe's pink dress is worth today isn't fully known. In 2010, the iconic strapless dress the starlet wore in the 1953 film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes sold for around $370,000.

Find a large collection of vintage and contemporary dresses on 1stDibs.

    Andy Warhol's Marilyn Monroe is worth around $195 million. That's how much the silk-screen portrait sold for at an auction in 2022. The sale made history, as the price tag was a new record for the American Pop artist. Warhol's Marilyn series sought to critique society's fixation with glamor and fame, themes he returned to many times during his career. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of Andy Warhol art.
