Wow can girls just SHUT UP about having Marilyn Monroe’s body? Just because you’re not a size 6 doesn’t mean you freaking having Marilyn’s body. She wasnt a size 12 or 14 or 16 or whatever the hell other plus size people like to think of her as. Sizes have changed since the 50s, and her weight…

I want to hold you OP. I worked in a vintage place forever and women would get soo pissed off over the vintage sizes. I’m a 2-4 and I barely fit in a vintage 10. Ugh.

That being said, the “Marilyn Monroe” body refers more to having the same breast and hip measurement and a ten inch smaller waist—as in a true hourglass. Which you can have at any size.
