Iconic Actresses Take Center Stage in New Book


What do Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich and Julia Roberts all have in common -- aside from famously good looks and acting talent, that is? All three women are among the featured subjects in The Allure of Beauty: Women in Hollywood, a new book paying homage to legendary ladies of the silver screen.

The book, due out this October, was created jointly by celebrated jeweler Roberto Coin and ELLE magazine. Each page is filled with iconic images of past and present "Women In Hollywood" honorees, as well as other unforgettable female talent.

Both Coin and ELLE group publishing director Carol Smith contributed forwards to the glam collection. And ELLE continues the celebration of women in film for their November issue, hitting newsstands Oct. 14 and featuring stars such as Jane Fonda, Nicole Kidman and Halle Berry.
