Pink dress of Marilyn Monroe : ウィキペディア英語版 | Pink dress of Marilyn Monroe
Marilyn Monroe wore a shocking pink dress in the 1953 film ''Gentleman Prefer Blondes'', directed by Howard Hawks.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Willam Travilla biography )〕 The dress was created by costume designer William Travilla and was used in one of the most famous scenes of the film, which subsequently became the subject of numerous imitations, significantly from Madonna in the music video for her song "Material Girl". ==History== When the costume designer William Travilla, known simply as Travilla, began working with Marilyn Monroe, he had already won an Oscar for his work in ''Adventures of Don Juan'' in 1948. Travilla designed the clothes of the actress in eight films, and later claimed to have had a brief affair with Monroe.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=She was the easiest person I ever worked with )〕 In 1953 Travilla designed the costumes for ''Gentlemen Prefer Blondes'' including the shocking pink dress worn by Monroe in the role of the character of Lorelei Lee in the famous sequence in which the actress sings the song "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend", the choreography accompanied by several suitors in dinner clothes. The dress was auctioned on 11 June 2010, with an estimated price of between $150,000 and $250,000 and described as "the most important film costume to ever come to auction". At the end the dress sold for $310,000. However, according to some people, the dress sold at auction was not the original one worn by Marilyn Monroe. Some have claimed that the dress worn by the actress in ''Gentlemen Prefer Blondes'' was lined inside with felt, to remain rigid during the choreography, not the one sold at auction.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Marilyn Monroe Pink Gown from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes Sells at Auction for $310,000.00, But Was It The One? )〕 William Travilla, quoted in ''Dressing Marilyn'' by Andrew Hansford, stated that "Apart from the two side seams, the dress was folded into shape rather like cardboard. Any other girl would have looked like she was wearing cardboard, but on screen I swear you would have thought Marilyn had on a pale, thin piece of silk. Her body was so fabulous it still came through." 〔'Dressing Marilyn' by Andrew Hansford, published by Goodman〕
