Marilyn Monroe in 'There's No Business Like Show Business' Designed by William Travilla (Cut)

Description

Black polished cotton arm bands constructed of cuff with elastic bands with three layers of scalloped ruffles. The bottom ruffle is ornamented with circles of black sequins and ornamented with black dangling balls covered with black sequins. The second ruffle is sporadically beaded with circles and dotted with large black sequins and the top ruffle is ornamented only with applied large black sequins.
The arm bands were originally hanging on the hanger with the original costume and are made from the same materials that appear on the costume. But the concept was obviously changed for the actual filming of the costumes going to lower profile arm bands.
