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.
