#8- Black Cocktail Dress: $348,000
Have you heard about her black cocktail dress? It was auctioned during a Julien’s auction in 2011 and sold for almost $350,000.
The glamorous black cocktail dress that once belonged to the famous actress had a generous V neckline and a low-cut back.
She wore the dress in 1958 during a Beverly Hills Hotel party she attended with her husband, Arthur Miller.
But there is more. The same dress was featured on the cover of Marilyn Monroe-From Beginning to End, a photography book by Michael Ventura.
From her personal wardrobe, the hand-tailored black cocktail dress with pouf hemline is one-of-a-kind, which also happens to be one of the most expensive items owned by Marilyn Monroe.
