The photographer was George Barris, he was an old friend. He also interviewed her:
“The happiest time of my life is now. As far as I’m concerned, there’s a future and I can’t wait to get to it — it should be interesting! I feel I’m just getting started; I want to do comedy, tragedy, interspersed… I’d like to be a fine actress.”
She just looks like a regular girl but the world practically revolved around her for a brief moment. Crazy.
Breakes my heart, I can see the sadness in her eyes.

She was beautiful, and you Destroyed her for it…
Oh boy another pic of Marilyn Monroe. It just never gets old. /s

She looked absolutely gorgeous in this entire shoot. The whole series is incredible.
The Dude abides.
God Rest Her Soul
I’m sure she was decent for the 50s and 60s but I wasn’t alive then so I can only see her with modern eyes. She’s super mid.
Making absolutely any outfit look good
God rest her soul and burn Kennedy Bros.
I can see why they picked Ana de Armas to play her.
Not long before she committed Epstein… er I mean suicide.
It’s mind-boggling how one woman’s life can have so much glamor and prestige, and yet so much heartache and tragedy at the same time.
If there really is such a thing as heaven, I’d love to encounter her in a giant ballroom somewhere, and ask her for a dance.
Didn’t Starsky have that same cardigan some years later? I had the Starsky & Hutch Ford Gran Torino Dinky car. I’d love to see that again.
Edit; Jesus wept- just looked on eBay, they’re about £200!!
She looks Stunning and sad….
We all went to school with a better Monroe
