The most exciting item in the entire auction, THE DRESS! Even watching on TV, the crowd anticipation could be felt as the lights darkened and the dress appeared in a spotlight with background music of Marilyn singing Happy Birthday.
This has to be one of the most expensive dresses sold, with the final price hammered down at $1,150,000.
