Marilyn Monroe's personal belongings to be displayed in new exhibition

Rare personal items that once belonged to Marilyn Monroe will go on display in a new exhibition celebrating the life and legacy of the Hollywood icon.

A private presentation at the Waldorf Astoria New York recently revealed highlights from the Icon Collection, a private archive containing clothing, documents, photographs and film memorabilia associated with the star.

The archive includes Monroe's program from the event, as well as a handwritten RSVP card that reveals that she personally paid for five guests to attend the concert.

Other items offer a look into Monroe's creative process and how she shaped her persona as a star.

One prominent object is a mirror from her Brentwood home, where she is said to have spent hours studying her appearance and shaping the image that would become synonymous with global fame.
