Michelle Willaims just wrapped filming of biographical drama My Week With Marilyn (based on the published diary of Colin Clark) and said that she had to enlist the help of teachers to immerse herself in the character as everything between the two was different.

The verdict may still be out on how she portrays the iconic bombshell, and many can say that people mostly have her acting as a comparison, not necessarily first person recollections left, but the look? The look has definitely been perfected to transform the actress into Marilyn Monroe. What Williams once considered a total physical difference can now be seen as a lookalike.

To copy the old school look, break out some satin blouses in a size larger than usual to have a billowy silhouette. Pair it with a darker shade high waist, knee length skirt, and a skinny belt. Break out some pearls and medium heel pumps and you've got the look.

Want to modernize it? Use booties or some chains to bring the look back to the modern day, or get the pieces in bright colors (neon is definitely a fave of mine!).
