Marilyn Monroe wore a shocking pink dress in the 1953 film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, directed by Howard Hawks. The dress was created by costume designer William "Billy" Travilla and was used in one of the most famous scenes of the film when she performed "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend", which subsequently became the subject of numerous imitations, significantly from Madonna in the music video for her 1985 song "Material Girl".
