4Marilyn Monroe
The American actress, model, and singer, who became a major sex symbol stared in a number of commercially successful motion pictures during the 1950s and early 1960s.
She was also an important fashion icon, as her white dress and red lipstick look is still copied by many fashionistas of our times. After all, she’s the original blonde bombshell.
During her brief life, Monroe sported what are now considered some of the most iconic outfits of all time: the billowing white halter-neck dress worn over a subway grate in The Seven Year Itch, the pink satin strapless number with opera-length gloves and layers of sparkling jewels in Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend, and the sheer, skin-colored, rhinestone-encrusted dress she had to be sewn into to sing “Happy Birthday” to JFK.
And that’s just a few of her outfits.
