Though sizes have dramatically changed over the years (and are essentially meaningless because of it), weight is still measured just the same as always. I am very suspicious.

She had a small part in the classic Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo (1944), and shortly afterwards signed a contract with RKO Pictures. Myrna Dell, Actress: The Furies. I definitely will keep your comments in consideration when I do the next update on the chart...I agree that 112 seems a bit unrealistic if those are indeed her measurements. She had on high heel boots and seemed like she was 5'7, so maybe she would be about 5'4.I would say Loretta Young would have been about 5'6. It's clear from photos of her in bikinis or mostly nude that she was very skinny in the last year or so of her life. I saw both women's dresses from GWTW and "rebel without a cause" in museums. This was 1939. My dress size today depends on where I get my dress. I appreciate that you really get the purpose and spirit of this list. Mention the words German Expressionism and you just might put a panic into even the most ardent of classic cinema fans. Followed your link & loved seeing how little most of the men were ☺. Thanks Patricia! That means a gal today may have the same measurements as one of these stars, but weigh more.And, as you agreed with me, these numbers--especially dress sizes--are essentially meaningless. Upon her death she was cremated and her ashes scattered at the base of the famous Hollywood sign. Just genetics. On that note, I plan on adding a few men the next time I update the chart so we can see the ladies next to their co-stars. Myrna Dell estimated net worth in 2018 is Under Review.Here we also added Myrna Dell previous years Net Worth, Income, Salary & Property details. (There's an amusing photo from the early '60s showing Georgiana doing the twist with designer Jean Louis, who would become Loretta's last husband. One of us probably looks more like Marilyn Monroe, and the other Grace Kelly! Having an eye witness to how small these women--and there costumes--were helps with those who insist there's no way that these measurements can be right. We are the same height and shoe size reportedly, but I'm 31-25-33 and weigh 115. Myrna Dell And that weight that you mention may have been toward the beginning of her career as well. Thanks for your comments, Marilyn! One of my future updates on the chart will include some of the men's heights against their popular co-stars, such as Alan Ladd and Veronica Lake. 5"1. Not sure if you saw my disclaimers galore about the list, which include: 1) These numbers were taken at various points of these stars' careers--some at very start, some at their height, and some later on. I think her height is a little fudged in this though. The TCM Classic Film Festival  is officially underway and there is already such excitement! I'll definitely include her in any future updates. I also wanted to call more attention to the genius of the costume designers, who make these people seem taller, slimmer, whatever. Thanks! Monroe was taller than I expected. Dress sizes where numbered differently in the classic era. Not that it could have made a drastic difference, but it did make some difference in their appearance (not their actual measurements of course, but the perception of them) that they wore some heavy-duty foundation garments back then-it almost seems that the further back you go (with exceptions of course, like the Twenties and early Thirties), the more heavy-duty the foundation garments. Just interesting to see them all together, especially when it comes to the variety of heights! Typically I fall somewhere between a 0-2 in even numbers, and a 1-3 in odd ones. If you look, you may also notice sometime that Stanwyck, a former Follies Girl, had the famous Follies walk, where she kind of "dragged" her feet as if she were always trailing a mink stole behind her. Some results are accurate, others wildly inaccurate, still others verging on the absurd.In December 1949, with the half-century on the horizon, the Associated Press ran a story which predicted that in 2000, the average height of the American woman would be close to, or perhaps over, six feet tall.
It's a fun chart, isn't it? I am suspicious, though, that in some cases the data came from studio PR.

This chart is primarily for entertainment since so many dispute the numbers that are out there, and everyone thinks that their numbers are right. At one point she wrote a gossip column, "Hollywood: Then and Now". Even I have to remind myself to stand up straight since I'm so much taller than the average woman (5'4") and man (5'8").
