Women's beauty has always been extolled; it is both a reason for pride and a reason for inspiration. Nothing cares a woman like her own appearance, but beauty and fashion are different judgments and every era has its own ideals and canons.
Ancient Egypt
In ancient Egypt, no one felt free like women. At that time, carnal pleasures and any manifestations of sexuality were welcomed, women without remorse could divorce, possess property separately from her husband, be candidates for honorable ranks, and even for the Pharaonic title.
Girls with a slender figure, a high waist, symmetrical features were considered beautiful.
Women grew long hair and braided it in a braid, and also made a bright emphasis on the eyes with the help of long arrows.
Ancient Greece
At this time, the Greeks did not particularly think about the ideals of beauty of girls and women. They had no time, because then everyone was extolling the bodies of men.
The Greeks demonstrated strength, beauty and charms, they practically did not wear clothes, and used a small piece of cloth to cover their bodies.
Courageous Greeks loved chubby women, with rounded shapes.
Middle Ages
Focusing on body and beauty was considered sinful and punished. Girls tried to be modest, inconspicuous, kind.
A thin camp, a small chest and the absence of any hints of a figure - that was what was held in high esteem. The only thing women could afford was a small tummy that hinted at pregnancy.
China
During the reign of the Han Dynasty, grace, a thin camp, was extolled. At that time, a beautiful Chinese woman was the owner of long hair, expressive lips of scarlet color and a snow-white smile.
The gait of an attractive Chinese woman should be smooth, they walked in small steps, slowly, creating the appearance that they are "swimming." Feet, while almost worshiped, a small neat leg, could drive any Chinese crazy. The smaller the size of the girl’s legs, the more enviable the bride was.
By the way, this statement has been relevant for many decades.
Rebirth
In a new era, new standards are coming. This is what happened in Italy at the time of the revival. It was time for magnificent forms, which meant the woman’s ability to give birth to healthy offspring, braids of red and copper colors, pale skin, large breasts, and also a high forehead were valued.
Much attention was paid to the upbringing of the girl, she should respect her father, brother, mother, and in the future, her husband. She judged the welfare of the family by her actions.
The era of Rococo
At the beginning of the 17th century, the fashion for a woman's appearance changed: idleness, followed by a light playfulness and coquetry. Girls maximize their breasts, bare their neck and shoulders, at this time the deep neckline is especially popular. Facial and hair care takes a lot of strength and money. Women competed among themselves in makeup, as well as hairstyles. Often hair was decorated with flowers, the number of which was not limited.
These “towers” of hair were a luxury, so many tried to keep their hair as long as possible, which makes it clear that hygiene procedures on the head were rarely carried out.
Perfect appearance: fair skin, blush, red lips and white teeth, high growth and long hair. Women with small breasts and lush hips were especially appreciated.
Victorian time
The most prestigious personality of this era was Queen Victoria. She became the embodiment of virtues such as frugality, practicality, motherhood, family, which was deeply appreciated by English society.
The Victorian era is characterized by women with the figure of an hourglass, pale skin, long hair and beautiful hairstyles.
In the 18th century, every woman emphasized the waist with a corset.
Famous twenties
The number of women's rights increases significantly in the 1920s. This event has set the character for the whole decade: girls are liberated more than ever before, they feel freedom and equality. To keep up with the times, they wear clothes that visually make the waist lower, they choose a bra that squeezes the chest. Androgenic appearance is in fashion: a boyish figure, a breast of minimal volume, as well as a lack of forms.

The models that possessed these parameters are gaining great popularity. The standard of beauty of the 90s, embodied by Kate Moss: tall, tall, unhealthy thinness and dark circles under the eyes. An anorexic addict is a very strange example of an ideal, but it was.
The era of postmodernism (from the 2000s to our time)
In order to conform to fashion in our time, a woman has to do more than just because she is presented with an impressive list of requirements. The girl should be moderately slender, athletic, have beautiful breasts and booty. A small "gap" between the legs, it is beautiful and attractive in our time. For the sake of forms, women are ready for anything and many girls decide on plastic surgery in order to become ideal.
