Have you checked out our behind the scenes video from the brand new 7 For All Mankind FW12 campaign, shot by James Franco, yet? It’s an awesome taster of things to come, and we’re getting really excited about showing you the very first episode!

The campaign is called Hollywood Resurrection, inspired by the glitz and glamour of Hollywood past and present. In preparation for the big reveal we’ve been thinking about our favourite Hollywood icons from the golden era of cinema – here’s some of our top legends of the silver screen…

Katharine Hepburn

Gorgeous, talented and as strong as they come, Katharine was renowned for her headstrong attitude and won a string of Oacars for her incredible performances. A style icon, she blazed a trail for fashion by wearing trousers long before it became acceptable and fashionable for women and left a legacy that led to her being named the top female Hollywood legend by the American Film Insitute. We have to agree!

Marilyn Monroe

This year marks the fiftieth anniversary of Marilyn Monroe’s death, and her appeal has hardly lessened. Controversy still surrounds many aspects of her life and death, but there can be no doubt of her lasting legacy as a pop icon and sex symbol. Her blonde curls and curvaceous figure are as legendary as her performances.

James Dean

Nobody epitomises Hollywood like James Dean, despite only ever starring in three films. His life was tragically cut short by a car crash at the age of 24, but James has lived on as a symbol of youth and rebellion, thanks largely to his role as disillusioned teen Jim Stark in Rebel Without a Cause.
