I don’t even understand how ppl call marilyn plus-size, you don’t even have to know her size but look at her photos where she obviously is skinny.

Marilyn Monroe would have been a size 16 in vintage sizing. That would be around a 36" bust. She was nowhere near plus size and people need to stop lying about it

Marilyn was pregnant in many of the pictures people use. She was gorgeous in every frame.

I think because she had size 16s in her wardrobe people confuse that for a modern 16. For perspective Audrey wore a 12 and Grace wore a 14. Marilyn weight and size varied, I think she was great inspo for people with a similar shape regardless of size.

Sizing was different, a 12 then was a lot smaller than a modern 12. Check out the measurements on vintage sewing patterns, you will be surprised

Plus size was different in her time. We have vanity sizing now .

The sizes back then were different in today’s standards. Even close from the 80s are sized different.

I know firsthand that women’s clothing sizes have grown to accommodate women even over the last 20 years. I didn’t realize the total change since when she was alive.

Marilyn fluctuated in between sizes and when she was bigger she was pregnant . But she was NEVER plus size and never a size 16 in today’s terms. Sizing was done differently back then and in today’s sizing she was more of a size 4-6 👌

She obviously just had a really pronouned hourglass figure.

I think I saw a video a few years ago where someone said that based on her measurements, she would have been about a size 6 today. She also looks pretty slim in all the videos/films too

Vintage sizing is different. A 16 would be a uk size 12 in modern sizes. She actually had a 24" waist which is around a size 6 uk. It annoys me when I see people spreading misinformation!
