Since her passing she has been looked upon as a fashionista and modern day trend setter.

Johnny Earle, founder of Johnny Cupcakes stated, “ I am honored to be working with the Marilyn Monroe estate on this collaboration. Marilyn IS an iconic “figure and to be able to celebrate her birthday in conjunction with the Johnny Cupcakes brand is amazing.” Nick Woodhouse, CMO of the Estate of Marilyn Monroe, addressed the distinctiveness of this product, “We are excited to work with Johnny Cupcake and give Marilyn’s passionate fans the opportunity to celebrate her birthday with this limited edition piece.”

The Marilyn Monroe estate will not be releasing any other merchandise besides the Johnny Cupcakes shirt collaboration for Marilyn’s birthday celebration. The shirt will be available for pre-order from June 1st to June 5th on johnnycupcakes.com. This is an instant classic to look out for. via – johnnycupcakes
