body icons over the years


Women have always been self conscious about their bodies no matter what day and age. Well here are the body icons since the 50's I found! 5o's: Marilyn Monroe, Jayne Mansfield
  • Curvaceous and voluptuous. It was all about the big boobs, tiny waist and big hips.
60's: Twiggy, Jean Shrimpton
  • These women had little frames and tiny figures.
70's: Bo Derek, Barbara Bach
  • Tall and slender (hey that's me!)
80's: Jane Fonda, Jamie Lee Curtis
  • Muscular definition and a sense of toneness. Like the Madonna of today.
90's: Kate Moss, Giselle Bundchen
  • Ultra thin, waif like
Today: Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce, Kate Winslet, Dita Von Teese
  • We've gone in a full circle back to the voluptuous, curvy figures
  • This also includes accentuated features such as the hour glass body <3
