They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But throughout the centuries, certain women have been considered universally beautiful – there are no ifs, ands, or buts about it. From modern celebs to princesses and ancient queens we read about in history books, these women have been honored for their otherworldly beauty.
12. Brigitte Bardot
Born in Paris and an icon of the 50s and 60s, this gap-toothed actress and animal rights activist is often referred to as a “sex kitten” for her coy looks. Beyond appearing in many 1950s French films, they starred in Hollywood movies such as “And God Created Woman” and “The Fox.”
11. Marylin Monroe
Marylin was a triple threat—she could sing, act, and model. Before her tragic death in 1962, this influential sex symbol was also praised for moving the women’s rights and gender equality movement forward. In her movies, she often played women who defied gender roles, like the assertive and confident role in “Gentleman Prefer Blondes,” which fought submissive stereotypes.

10. Grace Kelly
This beauty was the epitome of classic, old Hollywood glamour. She soon became the Princess of Monaco and, despite her classy persona, experienced insecurity and mental health issues like anxiety and depression. Despite her ambition and looks, her story reminds us that we’re all human and nobody is perfect, even with a supposedly flawless appearance.
9. Audrey Hepburn
This delicate-featured starlet starred in world-renowned movies like “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” “My Fair Lady,” and “Roman Holiday.” Her versatility allowed her to play many roles, and she was known for her understated, chic elegance. She was also a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF and worked hard to raise awareness of the struggles of children in developing countries.
