Whenever someone says they/someone they know is stunning,all i ever want to ask is what do they look like.

Not because i doubt them, not at all, i just really want to know what does a stunning woman look like TO THEM.

A lot of people on this thread need to go to SpecsaversGrin

One with a smile and a few wrinkles.

Crazycrazylady · 10/05/2021 13:22

I think Jessica Alba is beautiful, Also think that actress from Meet Joe Black ( can't think of her name) is arrestingly beautiful..

Watching countryfile yesterday was reminded of the presenter Ellie's beauty .

WeeWelshWoman · 10/05/2021 21:14

Someone who turns heads. There's a whole host of different sorts of beauty that can do that. If you look and look again, I'd say that's stunning.

I think Princess Diana was a very striking woman. Not conventionally pretty but stunning.

Honeyroar · 10/05/2021 22:39

I don’t think Diana was until she got her hair and make up done. She was quite plain in early photos. She just learned how to use what she had to best affect really well. She did indeed look fantastic once she’d found her niche.

Juliette Binoche

Justbeenjabbed · 10/05/2021 23:57

For me, tanned skin, deep brown eyes, thick wavy blonde hair that falls forward, slim athletic figure.

(I look nothing like this whatsoever! Wish I did!)

adrianmolesmole · 11/05/2021 00:31

Also want to add

Emmy Rossum
Rose Byrne

Both have those gentle/sad eyes I find really beautiful

TheSongOfTheSea · 11/05/2021 00:31

Angelina, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Keira Knightley.

Like others, I rarely find blondes stunning. I find most blondes either plain (like Gwyneth P) or synthetic (Pamela Anderson).

I think men have a different idea of stunning too. I hope this isn't seen as speaking ill of the dead, but it's the only real life example I can think of... I was reading some gossip column and there was a picture of Caroline Flack. My partner thought she was stunning, but I can't see 'stunning' there, just an averagely attractive woman who presented herself well. Same goes for a lot of 'lads mags' type women.

I don't think anybody with obvious fillers and drawn on eyebrows can be described as stunning.

Battleaxeoutofhell · 11/05/2021 00:54

My partner. (Butch as they come)

Walks into a room and I crumble Grin (& I'm a 30 something professional)

In terms of the effeminate.. I agree on Kate Middleton for her aura and smile
Dita Von Teese
Marilyn Monroe
Angelina Jolie

@DrSbaitso

My husband would say me. No, he really would.

He's got shit in his eye, obviously, but it works for me.

Mine too. I tell him often, he needs to go get his eyes re checked then once he does get his eyes tested he'll see me and go woah wtf! Although that said he's the only person who hasn't made me feel shit about my body and I do know that when he says things about me he genuinely means it.

This thread is eight months old but I thought that I would resurrect it after watching a music video of Sade on YouTube.
She was absolutely breathtaking. Almond , slanted eyes , high cheekbones and great personal style.

Tevion28 · 08/01/2022 16:45

Tanya Roberts beautiful in her day

Tevion28 · 08/01/2022 16:48

Also love Eva green

HikingforScenery · 08/01/2022 16:59

Gosh, I’m very surprised to find that I can’t think of a single famous female celebrity I’d say is stunning. There are plenty I think are beautiful, gorgeous, sexy, etc but not stunning.
I’ve never thought about it so I’m quite surprised.

Tevion28 · 08/01/2022 17:19

Many people are beautiful in their own right.
My mom liked Barbara Streisand said she had a unique look

nalabae · 08/01/2022 17:40

Adrian lima
Angelina jolie
Michelle phiefer probably only blonde woman alive I find attractive

Hedy Lamarr

Who/What does a stunning woman look like to you?
Bitbloweyoutthere · 08/01/2022 18:09

Shirley bassey, but more in her middle years. Think it's more that she has a twinkle about her.

HippyMoon · 08/01/2022 18:12

Tall with long, red, curly hair and sparkling green eyes, with excellent cheekbones.

MostlyGuesswork · 08/01/2022 18:16

Marina Sirtis (Deanna Troi from Star Trek)

Isaw3ships · 08/01/2022 18:19

I work with a girl who looks like a human Disney Princess ( in a good way!) face wise. Big almond shaped eyes, big smile, perfect white teeth, perfect hair.
I’d say she was stunning. We’re all on Zoom looking like washed out hags and she’s glowing in her little square! Lovely girl too. And rarely wears make up.
Otherwise ‘stunning’ to me would be an Angelica Jolie, or Nina Sosanya or T’Nia Miller or Margot Robbie, Gal Gadot…
Wouldn’t fancy any of them though, too intimidating!
