Nicole Kidman sends fans wild with Marilyn Monroe-inspired throwback photo

She’s graced the covers of some of the biggest magazines in the world, but only a few will likely stay in her mind 10 years later.

Now, Nicole Kidman has taken a trip down memory lane and unearthed a stunning photo from her 2008 shoot with Harper’s Bazaar Australia, as she stripped down to sexy lingerie ahead of the birth of her daughter Sunday Rose.

She chose a beautiful black and white photo showing her staring off into the distance with huge curled blonde hair framing her face – prompting many fans to draw strong comparisons to Marilyn Monroe.

She shows off her bare shoulders in the photo and appears to wear nothing but an elegant necklace.
