Bella Hadid as Marilyn Monroe! The model wears a blonde wig as it leaves little to the imagination while she goes braless in a sheer tank top
Bella Hadid tried on a classic Hollywood movie star look this week.
Model Gigi Hadid’s younger sister, 27, wore a fun white-blonde wig with flirty little curls around her face to resemble Some Like It Hot actress Marilyn Monroe, who died in 1962 at the age of 36.
The 26-year-old Versace favourite, who was last seen as a brunette in a bikini, also left little to the imagination as she went braless in a sheer white tank top that showed off her breasts.

The man behind the gorgeous mane was hair stylist Sam McKnight.
Monroe was an actress best known for her films How To Marry A Millionaire and The Seven Year Itch.
She was famous for playing comedic “bombshell blonde” characters and became one of the most popular sex symbols of the 1950s and early 1960s, as well as an icon of the sexual revolution of that era.
Born Norma Jeane Mortenson in Los Angeles in 1926, Monroe had a difficult childhood that would haunt her for the rest of her life.

She was found dead at her home in Brentwood on August 4, 1962.
The pinup was also married several times: to Arthur Miller (1956-1961), to Joe DiMaggio (1954-1955) and to James Dougherty (1942-1946).
In November, Hadid was named the Most Stylish Person Alive by GQ magazine.
The 26-year-old model – the daughter of Yolanda and Mohamed Hadid – was hailed by the publication as the “best dressed person” in the world.
The magazine explained: “Menswear. women’s clothing. street fashion. Workwear. smartwear. wavy clothes.

“Few can wear (and take off) everything. But few include Bella Hadid, the princess who was promised, her of many angles, the chosen one who can truly wear it all — and our best-dressed person on the planet.
“Once the offspring of the Real Housewives reached supermodel status, the dam burst for a flood of suits that are head-to-toe—and often above—the stuff she’s actually paid for.”
GQ was particularly excited about Bella’s menswear.
The magazine said: “Our favorite version and the one that secured Hadid first place: Menswear Bella. Tailoring. Prada loafers. Big denim jackets. LSD fur catcher. There was even a draw once. It’s wavy, classic and uncomplicated at the same time.

Hadid does menswear better than most men—and she can still wear anything and everything.”
Meanwhile, Bella previously admitted that she hasn’t had a stylist in two years.
The brunette beauty – who is the younger sister of model Gigi Hadid – also revealed she’s learned to deal with the trial that comes her way.
She said: “Over the past year it’s been really important for me to learn that it doesn’t matter if people talk about my style or if they like it or not because it’s my style.
“When I leave the house in the morning, I think: Does that make me happy? Do I feel comfortable in it and do I feel comfortable?’
