On what would have been Marilyn Monroe's 90th birthday, De Nieuwe Kerk Amsterdam paid tribute to the Hollywood legend. The announcement stole the show: her famous billowing white dress—designed by William Travilla in 1955 for the iconic subway grate scene in The Seven Year Itch—will take center stage in the '90 Years of Marilyn' exhibition, joined by over 140 personal items from her life.
Running from October 1, 2016, to February 5, 2017, this biographical showcase reveals Marilyn's world: the glamorous success, personal struggles and loneliness, and her sharp wit, creativity, and trailblazing spirit. Explore artifacts from her final home at 12305 Fifth Helena Drive in Brentwood, California, and witness the determination that made her an enduring icon.
