Actresses often undergo drastic changes to physically morph into their movie characters. Some leading ladies like Michelle Williams have not only morphed their bodies but their off-screen style as well.

For Williams, her role as Marilyn Monroe in "My Week With Marilyn" has meant a full fashion transformation: from her Vogue spread to various red carpet outings, Michelle has sported retro looks and bleached blonde hair, channeling the Hollywood icon flawlessly.

Check out Michelle plus six other actresses -- Kate! Sienna! -- who have let their onscreen movie roles influence their offscreen fashion!

Plus she doesn't even look like Marilyn Monroe.

I'm not one of those people who thinks that an actor has to look exactly like the person they are portraying. Its about getting the essence of the person right. This article is dumb because the subject of the article is inane.

Why does everyone keep attacking Michelle Williams for playing Marilyn Monroe? I understand that she doesn't look like Monroe, but she's an amazing actress so why not give her a chance? I think she will do a great job. There are other actresses that could have played her (and no, I don't mean Lindsay Lohan who has become a complete wreck) but none have the talent that Williams does. Just chill out already.

I think Lindsey Lohan should have played Marilyn. She isn't half the actress that Michelle Williams is, but she has the right looks, neurosis and persona.

Michelle William as Marilyn Monroe is laughable.
