Marilyn Monroe in a inspired dotted blue dress.

Styled after the dress worn by Marilyn Monroe for a photo shoot with then husband Arthur Miller, this cotton sundress features 4 gathered tiers each separated by white piping. Fitted midriff with gathered bust, built in bra cups, boning in sides seams, curving seam also finished with white piping, straps tie in the back with a bow, center back invisible zipper. This dress took about two days just to gather and pipe the skirt and I used a lot of fabric! It really came out well though, it was…

Marilyn's blue sun dress. I need to make me a version of it. It's so super sweet :)

Nicknamed "the Egghead and the Hourglass," the iconic movie star and the playwright/author made a very unlikely pair.
