The Bardot Pose
The impact of Brigitte Bardot on the world of modeling and fashion is so powerful that she has been given a pose all her own. She invented what would eventually become known as the “Bardot posture,” which simply involves sitting with your arms and legs crossed while facing the camera.
Bert Stern originally took the iconic photograph of Marilyn Monroe wearing a bikini in 1956. Since then, many celebrities have recreated the image, including Lindsay Lohan and Monica Bellucci, among others.
