I think she looked the most beautiful during this period, so natural and timeless. Her hair was especially gorgeous.

It’s nice seeing pictures of her before she was totally made into a sex object. I find it sad that there’s only a few films where she acts and looks more normal (How To Marry a Millionaire being one of them).
Yes, I’ll probably get downvoted for this, but I’ll stand by my words. She deserved MUCH better.

Perfect time to post this, thanks for sharing!
how was she still norma in 1945
IMHO, Norma Jeane Mortenson “Marilyn Monroe” was one of the most beautiful women. Tragic life…
Bang average
More like Norma *Jeans*, amirite?
I love her outfit in those photos
Possibly the most overrated looking woman of all time
/r/denim or maybe /r/selfedge or maybe /r/selvedgedenim
To me, Norma Jean was the height of beauty. Never got the Marilyn Monroe look.
She was so average
This is arguably the most famous sex symbol ever? She’s a fine looking lady, but yikes.

You could put her in 2025 and she would be just as normal.
AI? Seems sus.
I think Norma Jean is as cool a name as Marilyn Monroe. I guess it does sound a little hick-ish. (I’m from south western va.)
