Marilyn Monroe pics of her lifting weights

We've seen several of these before but a few were new to me. Nice weight bench. I wonder what the poundage was on the barbells and dumbbells. You have to scroll down the page for the photos.

For fashionistas, this is an authentic, detailed website with lots of fashion information on her weight and measurements at various ages, photos of her clothing (I love vintage), official documents, charts of various clothing brands today showing different measurements for the same size (which drives everyone crazy)

I have the poster of the last picture, second row, of Marilyn working chest. It's been on wall of the spare room for almost 20 years, beside Joe Pilates.

Someone here has one of those pics as her avatar.

I wish Target would put out a Marilyn collection, making knockoffs of most of those clothes.

Her body was incredible!

It's kind of a pet peeve of mine when people are like "but MM was a size 12!" I'm like, um yeah, that size 12 back then is probably a 4 today, if not smaller. NOT that there is anything wrong with being a size 12 (hello, this is my wheelhouse!) - it's just that there is no comparing sizes from the 50s to sizes of today.

Elizabeth Hurley is nasty and she doesn't know what she's talking about, either...

True.
