You’ve seen it on mannequins. You’ve seen the Queen of England and her entourage don them with style and flamboyance. Sometimes you’ve been egged to try them on, but you’re shy, because you haven’t a clue how it might turn out to be.

Seeing a bunch of old photos and keeping in mind my posts on vintage styles, I decided to write on Marilyn Monroe’s inimitable style, with a few pointers on what one can imbibe from her looks!
