One of Verdura's earliest designs, the Lily Bracelet was originally featured on Doris Nolan in the 1938 film, Holiday. A year later, Marlene Dietrich modeled her own version in publicity stills for her film, Destry Rides Again. The bracelet would become a fitting symbol for the German-born actress, whose rendition of "Lili Marlene" in 1944 became a sensation for Allied Troops during World War II.
