This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.

Marilyn’s dress was designed by the famous Hollywood designer, Travilla. This scene greatly angered Marilyn’s then husband, Joe DiMaggio and he reportedly stormed off the set and both ultimately divorced. The dress was later bought by Debbie Reynolds and was put up for auction alongside other items of her collection of film memorabilia. It was sold at auction for a staggering $4,600,000 (Total over $5,600,000 with commission)
