It's the first thing I noticed. Oh her poor hair, go get a treatment.
I never even noticed her hair and then, like "Hey, she's right".
But those legs and her slimness?
Wow!
Our view of the "ideal" woman (in terms of body type) change culture to culture and over time.
Marilyn was never a zoftig type. But she was a bit fuller figured than the modern notion of an idealized female form.
And yet, WOW is right. Her figure in that particular photograph would fit modern sensibilities pretty closely.
The image of her in Sarah's avie is similar. A bit more trim and yet still, clearly, all woman.
I disagree. By the time she entered her thirties she was what I would consider healthily zoftig.
