Marilyn Monroe's Year-Long 100th Birthday Celebration Gets a Colorful Kick-Off with Pantone Palette

The year-long festivities leading up to her 100th birthday begin this month with the debut of Pantone’s Marilyn Monroe Collection Palette, an assortment of shades designed to capture different aspects of her identity, with names such as Star White and High Risk Red. Authentic Brands Group, which acquired a controlling stake in Monroe’s name and likeness rights in 2011, will be rolling out a variety of products utilizing the palette with partners including luxury goods label Tiffany & Co., Piper Heidsieck champagne, watchmaker Blancpain and jewelry designer Lele Sadoughi. Earlier this month, it was announced that “Marilyn Monroe: Hollywood Icon,” an exhibition exploring her public image through original screen-used costumes, photographs, production documents, letters and other personal items, will be kicking off a nine-month run at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures on May 31, 2026.
