Gentlemen Prefer Blondes

Synopsis

Costumes in glittering sweet-wrapper hues and daring color combinations (including pink and red): a rush of colors in full Technicolor as the perfect accompaniment for the shimmering diamonds to which a central musical number in the film is dedicated, canonically sung by Marilyn Monroe. She is supposed to be inspected for her virtue during a journey by ship. The result leaves a great deal open to interpretation and becomes the starting point for a series of high-percentage cocktails, brilliant show acts, a feigned theft, and a two-fold happy ending.
