'It's a sad reflection of the the beauty standards that women have faced for generations'
earlier this year sporting the gown in which Marilyn serenaded President Kennedy, was shocked at how small the '50s icon really was: “I always thought she was extremely curvy,” she toldwhen she initially tried the dress on. “I imagined I might be smaller in some places where she was bigger and bigger in places where she was smaller. So when it didn’t fit me, I wanted to cry because it can’t be altered at all.
Kim dropped 16 pounds to wear the dress, but it still didn’t fit: she accessorised with a white fur stole because she was unable to do up the zipper at the back. Given that Kim – a very slim woman with curves – was so far from fitting into Marilyn’s dress, it’s further evidence that the ‘plus-sized’ narrative that has been part of the star’s legacy isn’t accurate.
