The White Dress In The Seven Year Itch
Is there a more iconic film than Marilyn Monroe standing on top of a subway grate, her white dress flapping in the breeze? The backstory in this case is not a happy one. The actress was battling with swarms of fans eager to catch a glimpse of her underwear while filming this scene from The Seven Year Itch. Her husband’s reaction, if you ask us, was much worse. Joe DiMaggio was furious when he discovered what they were forcing his wife to perform on the scene. He allegedly assaulted her in the hotel after they finished filming for the day. In any case, they split up a month later.

The Fur Bikini In One Million Years B.C.
The fur bikini from One Million Years B.C. turned Raquel Welch into a sex symbol in the blink of an eye. She did not actually do a whole lot in the movie aside from being attractive, so this is quite the feat. “Miss Welch gets little opportunity to prove herself as an actress, but she is certainly there in the looks department,” Variety said in a recent story. The actress refused to wear the bikini or even work on the film. In fact, she predicted that it would fail. Despite this, she is not ruling out the prospect of wearing it again. “I’m not sure if I’ll ever wear [the bikini] again,” she says. Perhaps one day the screenplay will slip through the door for Two Million Years B.C.” she told the Sunday Post in 2020.
