Kim Kardashian’s new blonde bob sparks Marilyn Monroe comparisons after Beverly Hills outing
The beauty mogul returned to blonde with a Marilyn-inspired hairstyle, years after her tribute to the legend
Kim Kardashian is bringing back her blonde era with a glamorous new transformation.
The SKIMS founder, 45, debuted a platinum blonde bob that instantly drew comparisons to Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe.
The reality star showed off her new hairstyle on Friday, June 19, while stepping out in Beverly Hills, California.
Kim styled the short blonde cut in a tousled, effortless look, pairing it with a sleek trench coat, oversized wraparound sunglasses, a Gucci handbag, and matching heels for a polished summer appearance.
The new hairstyle was later featured in a series of photos shared on her Instagram, where fans and celebrities praised the bold change.
Kim’s sister Khloé Kardashian reacted to the look, writing, “Sexy time!!!! Super into this,” while her All’s Fair costar Niecy Nash and friend La La Anthony also shared their support.
This is not the first time Kim has embraced a Marilyn Monroe-inspired style. She famously transformed into the blonde Hollywood legend for the 2022 Met Gala, where she wore Monroe’s iconic Jean Louis-designed gown that she wore while singing “Happy Birthday” to then-President John F. Kennedy in 1962.
Kim’s Met Gala appearance sparked major attention, with the star later revealing that her biggest regret from the look was not the dress itself, but her hairstyle.
She previously admitted that she wished she had spent more time perfecting the Marilyn-inspired hair, saying the overall look had “too much going on.”
