It is said that a career in fashion is short-lived and people who were once stars are soon forgotten as others replace them, but this does not apply to some legendary people like the great Hollywood actress Marilyn Monroe, who still continues to influence fashion and inspire designers even after 51 years of her final homage on August 5, 1962.

India’s celebrated fashion designer Ritu Beri also drew inspiration from Ms. Monroe for her Lakme Fashion Week Winter/ Festive 2012 collection. The designer tried to appeal to the youth through the verve and sex appeal typical to that of Marilyn with her collection featuring soft cream colours contrasted with bright hues of pink, turquoise and blue.

Commemorating its 30th anniversary last year, US-based apparel and accessories brand Guess re-issued the Marilyn jeans. The 3-zip ‘Marilyn’ jean replicates the original GUESS jean from 1982. The high-waste slim-fit ankle length jeans were highly in demand and earned much popularity to the brand during 1980s.
