Marilyn Monroe-s world was the stuff of fairy-tale - the orphan who conquered Hollywood and hailed as the most beautiful woman in the world before her untimely death in 1962.
Marilyn Monroe Style celebrates Marilyn-s impact on fashion by revealing the influence of her many iconic looks. Her wardrobe encompassed sensual femininity as well as low-key minimalism. Outfits span from shimmering showpieces such as the Jean Louis gown worn to serenade JFK on his birthday, to Pucci slacks and cats-eye spectacles.
Born Norma Jeane Mortensen, whenever she -became- Marilyn, she mesmerised onlookers with showstopping outfits that helped make her a legend, yet throughout her life the clothes she wore represented many ways of being a woman.
Written by Terry Newman - the bestselling author of Taylor Swift and the Clothes She Wears - this book tells the story of Marilyn-s life through clothes and is essential reading for Marilyn Monroe fans everywhere.
