A vision in pearls: bejeweled beauty Marilyn Monroe, photographed by Bert Stern in June 1962—six weeks before her untimely death. The black-and-white photoshoot was arranged by Vogue, which she had (surprisingly) not yet appeared in. Images from the shoot, now known as "The Last Sitting,” ran in an eight-page spread that September. . . . . #eddieborgo #marilynmonroe #bertstern #thelastsitting #bnw #bnwphoto #photooftheday #photographer #1960s #pearls #glitter #icon #styleicon #filmicon #hollywood #actress #fashionphotography #iconic #style #fashionarchives #dressup #photoshoot #vogue #voguemagazine #editorialphotography #blackandwhite #blackandwhitephoto #blackandwhitephotography #vintagejewelry #marilyn
