Marilyn

Marylin Monroe was a fan of Piper-Heidsieck champagnes. At the request of her third husband, Arthur Miller, the House developed an engraved silver-plated bucket with handles adorned with bunches of grapes, with her name and adress on it. A nod to the star’s favorite drink.
Marilyn Monroe, the producer
Did you know? In 1954, Marilyn Monroe co-founded her own production company, with photographer Milton Greene, a significant step towards gaining more control over her career. She produced the film “The Prince and the Showgirl”.

1785 was the year Florens-Louis Heidsieck founded his champagne house, with a philosophy which remains true “Craft Seriously wines that smile”
Star Producer
Actor and model. Marilyn Monroe was a woman of many talents, including a love of Piper-Heidsieck. But while the darling of the silver screen was known for what she did in front of the camera, she also made a name for herself behind it – as the founder of a film production company.
Tired of how Hollywood had typecast her, she took her career into her own hands.
Because why play along when you can play who you want?
Marylin byMiles Aldridge“We’re all used to the idea of having Marilyn being a kind of “pin-up” and glamorous movie star, the fact is, she was also one of the first women to run a production company. So the idea of her throwing away the publicity photographs of herself and moving in to production and directing is illustrated in the image.”
