If Marilyn Monroe was living in today’s fashion world she would be pleased that she would fit into a size 6/8. Since size standards have changed since her day (she would have worn a size 16 in the 1950′s) clothing sized in the 1950s can be cut in half for an idea of today’s mainstream sizing. Be careful when buying vintage fashion to be worn because since the 1960′s sizing standards have gone out the window. In fact many designers today are intentionally lowering the size to make the consumer pleased that they are able to fit into a smaller size.
