Marilyn Monroe In A Jackie Kennedy Wig (1962)

In June 1962, six weeks before she died, Marilyn Monroe pulled on a black wig and did a passable imitation of Jackie Kennedy for Vogue magazine. Shot by Bert Stern, the photographs are fun, gorgeous and, given the rumours that Monroe and President Kennedy were lovers, poignant.
