What color is Benjamin Moore Marilyn's Dress?
Benjamin Moore Marilyn's Dress 2125-60 is a very light, cool gray with a faint blue cast visible in its #E0E4E4 color value. Its low saturation keeps it soft and airy rather than icy, especially across large wall areas. In daylight, Marilyn's Dress can read as a clean pale blue-gray; under warmer bulbs, it may appear closer to a gentle neutral gray. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and light-filled living spaces where crisp white trim, brushed nickel, and pale oak can reinforce its clean character. For contrast, pair this shade with charcoal accents, deep navy textiles, or black-framed artwork.

What are Benjamin Moore Marilyn's Dress undertones?
Marilyn’s Dress is a very light, low-saturation off-white that reads close to neutral, with only a faint cool teal-leaning cast in the supplied digital sample. Because that color bias is so subtle, the sample does not support a confident standalone undertone call. Benjamin Moore describes it as a “cool off-white,” which fits its visibly near-neutral white family rather than suggesting a strongly blue or green color. Warm artificial light may make it appear a little softer or less crisp, while cool daylight can make its cool-leaning character easier to notice.

LRV of Marilyn's Dress
Marilyn's Dress has an LRV of 75.59% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 75.59%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
