Before there was Lady Gaga….before there was Madonna…there was Marlene Dietrich. Unique among the Grande Dames of Hollywood’s golden age, she was so far ahead of her time. She is as relevant today as she was in her 1930s and 40s heyday.

The Hollywood Museum is hosting an exclusive collection of rare Marlene Dietrich items that will be become available for public sale in a auction for the first time on March 19 at auctionmystuff.com.

The 250 item exhibit includes one of her famous tuxedos, an intimate letter between her and Ernest Hemingway and the plaque from her Queens Theatre dressing room.

 

Max Factor, the Hollywood make-up king to the stars, enhanced Dietrich’s features to create a very dramatic, mysterious effect.  She is known for her smoky eyes,  prominent cheekbones, voluptuous lips and wigs sprinkled with real gold dust.

How fitting to exhibit the Marlene Dietrich collection in the FOR BRUNETTES ONLY Room in the Historic Max Factor Building where Max Factor created her glamorous and famous look.
