What clothes did the sex symbol of the 50s wear?

The American actress, model, singer and film producer Marilyn Monroe always looked sophisticated and elegant, both in an evening dress and in a casual outfit. Her wardrobe was dominated by silhouettes with an emphasis on the neckline. After all, the celebrity wanted to emphasize her naturally curvaceous bust and waspish waist, for which she removed her ribs.

Marilyn has become a style icon of her time, and some of her fashion techniques have not lost their relevance today. Read more about them in the OBOZREVATEL article.

1. Jeans and shirt

Monroe often wore long sleeves, tops, as well as loose-fitting shirts and blouses, which she styled with high-waisted jeans. She complemented these looks with her signature red lipstick and black sunglasses. The celebrity wore sneakers or elegant sandals on her feet.
