[AngleofRepose]

In reference to The Most Beautiful Man thread,

Just for balance, I thought we ought to show the women as well...

Gong Li
Zhang Ziyi
Louise Brooks
Cyd Charisse

Jodie Comar
Gemma Arterton
Bridgette Bardot
Marilyn Monroe

Michelle Pfifer

Julia Roberts especially in Pretty Woman
Halle Berry (pixie cut days made her another level of beauty)
Angelina Jolie especially in Mr & Mrs Smith
Sophie Loren
Charlize Theron
Margot Robbie (before alterations)
Stacey Dash (Clueless version)
Whitney Houston especially in Bodyguard

Elizabeth Taylor, Sophie Loren, Grace Kelly, Marilyn Monroe, Angelina Jolie, Charlize Theron,Iman,Margot Robbie.Alicia Keyes.

Tian Xiwei

Adding Honour Blackman to my list.

No idea what she looks like now, but I once worked at an event where Dutch supermodel Karen Mulder was appearing. If you like the classical beauty look, the word stunning doesn’t even come close.

Alba Baptista in Mrs Harris goes to Paris

Ingrid Bergman

Ingrid Bergman

Whitney Houston
Catherine Zeta Jones
Brooke Shields
Natalie Portman
Jennifer Lopez

Brigitte Bardot

Nenah Cherry when she was younger.
Nigella Lawson

Karen Gillan for me. Even when she's bald and blue and terrifying in GOTG.

🩷

Not sure if she's been mentioned, but Hedy Lamarr. Not only beauty, but brains. She co-invented frequency hopping, intended for use in blocking the jamming of guided torpedos in WWII. And which is the core idea behind 'spread-spectrum' which is used in mobile phone technology.

OOPS, someone beat me to it. Oh well, here's another picture. She's well worth looking at.

Beatrice Dalle (Betty Blue) and Thandiwe Newton

Yasmin Le Bon

Debbie Harry.

A matter of opinion I guess but I genuinely think Michelle Keegan is perfect.

Courtney Cox in the 90s/00s!

She’s had a LOT of work done and still somehow just looks like a pretty woman you’d see walking down any street in Britain to me.

She was very pretty, but the horrific amount of plastic surgery she had made her unrecognisable and terrifying-looking in my view. Watching all the Scream films from the beginning makes you really see the complete transformation.

If beauty is an inner quality - Dolly Parton and in any case, she was good-looking.

Controversial but Blake has to be up there imo

Yes she was a beautiful soul. She didn't think she was pretty. Her old photos without lots of make up say otherwise.
