Marilyn Monroe - Female stereotypes
from 1926-1962, the creation that was Marilyn Monroe was created. One of the biggest and well known sex symbols of all time. Known for her work in film such as 'Bus Stop' and 'Some Like it hot' she began to develop her career as a celebrity. Monroe was famously known for her appearance. A busty size 12, with pouting red lips and blonde curly hair. This style carried on throughout time and is widely recognised as 'Marilyn Monroe's look' almost a convention. Madonna even tried the 'Marilyn Monroe look.'
In my music video, i have tried to create a modern day Marilyn Monroe. The famous photoshoot that is Monroe in a white dress with a breeze blowing up it is the style i have created.
My protagonist Leonie wears blonde curly hair, red pouting lips and a floral white flairy dress. I tried to capture the codes that is Monroe, but not to much.
Nowadays, the idea of a female is a busty size ten with blonde hair and copious amounts of make-up. which is what i have tried to create using the conventions of Twee-Pop.
