In 1960, Marilyn Monroe was interviewed by Georges

In 1960, Marilyn Monroe was interviewed by Georges Belmont for the French magazine Marie Claire whilst she was filming Let’s Make Love. Within their discussions she confirmed, on tape, the already popular fact, that she slept in @chanelofficial No 5 perfume… and nothing else.

In 2012, Chanel began releasing short films, ‘Inside Chanel’. In 2013, ‘Marilyn and No. 5’ was released as part of their digital and print advertising campaign. The video commercial included an audio clip of Marilyn’s 1960 interview in which she states “You know, they ask me questions. Just an example: ‘What do you wear to bed ? A pajama top? The bottoms of the pajamas? A nightgown?’ So I said, ‘Chanel No. 5,’ because it’s the truth. And yet, I don’t want to say ‘nude.’ But it’s the truth!”

The images from 1952 (by Bob Beerman) and 1955 (by Ed Feingersh) could be mistaken for Chanel advertisements to this day.
