Marilyn Monroe By Bob Beerman, 1950

Marilyn Monroe by Bob Beerman, 1950

"I am 5 feet, 5 1/2 inches in height. My hips and bust are the same— about 37. My waist is 23 and a half. That isn’t thin—and I don’t want to be. It doesn’t make me look like a fashion model and I don’t want to look like a fashion model. I personally don’t happen to like the slim look a girdle gives a girl—even though I admit it does make clothes look better. And I know almost everybody would argue with me, and tell me I’m wrong. But this just happens to be one of the things I’m stubborn about. And while I don’t say it’s right for everybody, I feel that it’s absolutely right for me."

-Marilyn Monroe, "My Beauty Secrets", Photoplay, Oct. 1953
