Abbey Clancy I've just seen (not in real life) thank god cuz I think if I was with my fella I'd of just been overcome with massive, never gonna think he's gonna fancy me again insecurities..... but 'wow' she's drop dead in my opinion.

Eva Green always comes up in these discussions but while I do think she's striking, I don't think she's beautiful or even pretty. Eye of the beholder indeed.

Agree with the poster who mentioned Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi - both mesmerisingly beautiful. Also, Gong Li is now already in her early 50s and looks fantastic.

Kendall Jenner
Taylor Hill
Diana Argon (sp?)
Emily Ratajkowski
Olivia Palmero

I would like to wake up and look like Helena Christian.

ScurfyTwiglet · 04/04/2019 23:18

Helena Bonham Carter

MadameAnchou · 04/04/2019 23:23

Lupita Nyong'o
Michelle Yeoh

TaleOfTheContinents · 04/04/2019 23:34

Georgina Chapman (pity about her husband!)
Kate Beckinsale on screen
Deepika Padukone (again, more beautiful on screen)
Charlize Theron

Quintella · 04/04/2019 23:36

Kate Beckinsale is gorgeous but she needs a serious style intervention.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 04/04/2019 23:36

Yasmin LeBon -54 and always stunning.

Anyone my era ( nearly 53) will remember the original Supermodels .
They weren't (at the time anyway) all fillers/veneers/botox.
They were enhanced by make-up but had the striking looks that set them apart from mortals.

Liz Hurley

LittleChristmasMouse · 04/04/2019 23:53

Claudia Winkleman.

bakedbeanzontoast · 05/04/2019 00:13

Maggie Q
Alex Polizzi
Uma Thurman
Woman who plays Melinda May in agents of shield
Connie out of casualty
Michelle Forbes

I find older women more attractive 1 we can age like a fine wine.

bakedbeanzontoast · 05/04/2019 00:15

Oh Victoria beckham too. And Linda Hamilton inT2

Just shows you beauty is in the eye of the beholder eh?

Originofstars · 05/04/2019 06:35

I'd look like Rose Byrne if I could

Cupfullofjoy · 05/04/2019 06:53

Eleanor Tomlinson
Emma Willis
Kate Moss

KondoKonvert · 05/04/2019 09:45

Marion Cotillard is beautiful. I'd love to look like Gemma Arterton though.

Delatron · 05/04/2019 09:59

Ah yes Yasmin Le Bon, 54! And no obvious work but she must have had something done.

Quintella · 05/04/2019 10:41

Yasmin Le Bon is Persian isn't she? Maybe she's just lucky with regards to ageing. Absolutely beautiful woman.

IcedPurple · 05/04/2019 12:34

Yes, her birth name is Yasmin Parvenah and her father is from Iran. Generalising obviously, but Iranians are a very good-looking people in my experience.

artemisdubois · 05/04/2019 12:58

Loads already mentioned on this thread:
Cate Blanchett
Uma Thurman
Claudia Schiffer
Emmanuelle Beart
Winona Ryder
Penelope Cruz
Blake Lively
Emily Blunt

However, if I could look like anybody I'd probably choose Sienna Milller from around the time she first became famous. I think she's about as close to 'generically gorgeous slim blonde cool girl' as possible, and that's the look I've always wanted.

BertBox · 05/04/2019 13:04

Anyone said Jenna Coleman yet? I think she's really beautiful.

EngagedAgain · 05/04/2019 13:05

Yes Linda Hamilton, a face with character. Great screen presence. Loved her in the Terminator films. I mentioned before Mila Kunis, forgot to add I like her casual day look best. Very natural looking and just as nice without make up.

EngagedAgain · 05/04/2019 13:09

Oh and Nicole Kidman, back in the day, she was stunning, with her red curly hair, although I think she probably looks better in real life just lounging around at home type of thing.

mumsiedarlingrevolta · 05/04/2019 13:16

@couldyouever I wonder if you live near me because Anna Friel lives round the corner
I obviously watch too many old films-
Grace Kelly
Katherine Hepburn
Audrey Hepburn
Jackie kennedy Onasis
and more recent offerings
Olivia Palermo
Kate Middleton
Saoirse Ronan
Carey Mulligan
And must say The Queen-always impeccable

mumsiedarlingrevolta · 05/04/2019 13:16

@BertBox I pushed send and then thought of Jenna Coleman.

Science9 · 05/04/2019 13:18

Hailey Baldwin. I think she is so beautiful, slightly unusually looking and I love that she seems really down to earth and a genuinely nice girl. Her smile is beautiful
