The Best of Marlene Dietrich (released in the UK as The Fabulous Marlene Dietrich) is a compilation album by German-American singer and actress Marlene Dietrich, released in 1973 by Columbia Records. It features selections from some of her previous live albums, highlighting performances in both English and German.

The album was promoted to coincide with Dietrich's live shows in Toronto and released in the UK with alternative cover art by British budget label Hallmark Records.

In 1992, it was included with Alexander Liberman's book Marlene Dietrich: An Intimate Photographic Memoir. Critics praised the sound quality and repertoire, noting highlights such as Noël Coward's introduction and the distinctive arrangement of "Go 'Way from My Window".
