Let's all get this clear guys, Marilyn Monroe was a size 16 in American sizes. And a size 16 in America is not a size 16 in the UK. Also everyone says how she had a big waist, in many pictures she had such a little waist! It just gets on my nerves when people say 'she was size 16' cause even if she was a UK16, that isn't big! Like at all! And so many people make out as if it is, but it really isn't.
