Re: Marilyn Monroe
We have a store here that sells stuff on consigment and sells "vintage" clothing. If you have a store like that where you live that is the only place that I can think of. Good luck in your search.

Re: Marilyn Monroe
What I'd do is a search on ebay for Marilyn Monroe under clothing category. They usually have a lot of "inspired-by" stuff.  Hope that helps and good luck!

Re: Marilyn Monroe
ebay! i get my vintage clothes from ebay! antique and thrift stores....
estate auctions. it all depends on how much you wanna spend. go to thrift stores of towns that have lots of old people. at least these are my personal little secrets (i wear a lot of vintage).

Re: Marilyn Monroe
Along with dressing the part, you really should take on her "aura". Sometimes just having the mannerisms of the person is the best way to imitate them.

just don't take it so far you end up looking/acting like anna nicole smith!  i think marilyn is her inspiration and she's totally hacking the image if true! no offense to anna fans!

Re: Marilyn Monroe
I luv Marilyn too! Wow another Marilyn Sister! Sniff sniff...I luv it!
ohh and I dunno where to look for cutie clothes l,ike that. I would say you can get classic looking pieces and then look for cuts that are simular to what you want. Gap has lots of Marilyn inspired stuff I'd say... in the fall especially. Also Banana Republic might too. Best of luck to you! Soul Marilyn sister! :0)

Re: Marilyn Monroe
I also agree with searching on eBay, thrift stores are also a good idea, but I never seem to find anything at the ones near me.

Re: Marilyn Monroe
Stop Staring makes really good vintage reproductions, but they can get a bit pricey. You can sometimes find really good deals on their clothes on eBay though, it's worth a look.
