The First Monday in May has been attracting the biggest names in fashion and film for more than 70 years. And, considering the decades that have passed, the photo archives read like a walk through a graveyard of celebrity relationships — albeit, a very fashionable graveyard at that.

Click-through to relive the glory of bygone celebrity relationships.
