When we say “a stylish woman” we usually mean “a well dressed lady”. And how many Old Hollywood celebs can we add to the short list of the well-dressed Divas?
The truth is that we can add more than thousands by now. But how many of them can we call iconic? This is a harder question. We can hardly find a person to be compared with Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich, Greta Garbo, Sophia Loren, Grace Kelly or Audrey Hepburn. They are believed to have combined proper sets from their wardrobes and to have been faithful to their personal styles all their lives.
