An Evening Gown and Shawl Owned and Likely Worn by Marilyn Monroe. Studio City, Calif.: Emeson's, 1950s. Strapless satin-lined floral cotton and linen dress and a matching long ruffled shawl, having been a gift from Monroe to the noted Hollywood columnist and socialite May Mann. Recently restored to the original seam-lines from Mann's own alterations. Accompanied by the present consignor's inventory sheet of items received from the Mann Collection, dated April 24, 1992, identifying the dress as Monroe's. Scattering of minor fabric tears and short snags, but very good overall.
