Marilyn Monroe is best known for glamorous, bombshell style. Off-screen she had a more minimalist style and was most comfortable in a tee shirt and barefoot. The founder designed the Marilyn tees because she was tired of having her cotton tees quickly wear out and get holes in them after only a few wears. Silk has the tensile strength of steel. It's not only stronger than cotton but more versatile in that it can go from day to night in the way a cotton tee shirt cannot.

The Marilyn was featured in Fast Company as a way to reduce plastic in your life.
