Lot 0521: "GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES" PHOTO-SHOOT RENTED BRACELET
A gold-plated sterling silver bracelet, designed by Joseff of Hollywood. The bracelet is composed of series of rectangular wirework links of foliate design, enhanced by brilliant-cut simulated diamonds, joined by fluted triangular shaped links with hinged locking clasp and safety chain, and mounted in gold plated sterling silver.
The bracelet was among a set rented for Marilyn Monroe in a series of Fox publicity photos shot by staff photographer Frank Powolny, used to promote the film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (Twentieth Century Fox, 1953). The bracelet was ultimately not photographed, but the photoshoot produced legendary images of Monroe wearing the racy gold pleated gown designed by Travilla for Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Although the gown was deemed to be too revealing because of its plunging neckline and was cut from the film, Monroe liked it and insisted on wearing it to the 1953 Photoplay Awards ceremony. She also wore it during this photoshoot, together with the rest of the jewelry set, producing some of the most iconic images of Monroe ever captured.
Length, 6.75 inches
PROVENANCE From The Joseff Archives

By Napier, no. MMF889. Each clip back earring is designed as a gold-tone flower basket, with wirework detail and sculpted flowers enhanced by faceted crystal beads, and suspended by a gold-tone floret centering a faceted crystal bead.
In the glamorous 20th Century Fox 1953 promotional photo shoot, Monroe posed in the earrings wearing a burgundy satin evening gown designed by William Travilla.
This set is one of two sets made for the photo shoot. Joan Castle had rented two pairs of earrings and other pieces including an engagement ring. One pair never made it back and the other was slightly damaged. This set was the former, which Marilyn had purportedly taken from the set as she was seen wearing them after the film wrapped.
Accompanied by a notarized letter of provenance from the husband of actress Carmen Miranda, as well as a vintage copy of Movieland magazine featuring Monroe on the cover wearing the earrings.

Robe bicolore en laine

The Two-Tone Wool Dress
La robe bicolore en laine

C'est une robe pull en laine bicolore (beige au buste, noir pour les manches et la jupe), moulant au buste et aux manches plus larges, à la jupe fluide comportant une large ceinture, avec un col roulé que Marilyn porte enroulé, retenu par une épingle à bijou. C'est une robe de la garde robe personnelle de Marilyn Monroe.

Elle porte la robe le 4 avril 1950, pour les tests costumes de All About Eve (Eve) avec des bracelets au poignée et une étole en fourrure de renard, telle qu'elle apparaît dans une des scènes du film; sur le panneau indicatif pour les essayages, est indiqué que le couturier est Charles Le Maire:

Le 10 décembre 1950, c'est vêtue de la robe que Marilyn passe des essais pour un projet de film intitulé Cold Shoulder , qui ne sera finalement jamais tourné:

Toujours en 1950, elle joue dans une petite production The Fireball, avec Mickey Rooney, et apparaît avec la robe -et des gants noirs- dans l'une des scènes:

Enfin, en 1951, elle joue une secrétaire dans Hometown Story et porte encore la robe dans l'une des scènes:

Synopsis

Johnny Casar, orphelin, quitte son foyer dirigé par le père O'Hara pour devenir une star de patins à roulettes avec l'aide de la dévouée Mary Reeves. Le succès monte à la tête de Johnny, et des femmes comme Polly courent après sa fortune et sa renommée. Johnny abandonne la vénale et intrigante Polly pour Mary, la désintéressée.
