Gwen in Stylelist’s Style Icons Then and Now Gallery

Gwen is featured in Stylelist’s new photo gallery of past and present style icons-it is the latest site to compare Gwen’s style with Marilyn Monroe’s and mention how with their platinum blonde hair and red lips,they both personified Hollywood glamour. Gwen of course has always cited Marilyn as an influence,most recently telling InStyle that she bleaches her hair as often as Marilyn did hers.

It seems like every day there’s a new actress starring in an indie movie (wait, wasn’t she born, like yesterday?) or model blowing up the catwalks during fashion week. In today’s celebrity and fashion-obsessed culture it has become necessary to make sure your style lexicon is up to date. But everything that you think is cool has a reference to the past–ask any designer, they’ve all been inspired by something that happened before their time. It’s important to know the genesis, because trust us, dear readers, one day you will be the ones rolling your eyes at the youngster who doesn’t know who Linda Evangelista is, or Mia Farrow was the original pixied darling. We’ve compiled a list of *some* of the new style-setters and you can tell us, did we leave anyone out?
