Beautiful face but horrible body


She'd be out of a job were she young now.

"Horrible" is a little harsh, and regardless, face is much more important than body.

Back in her day, I don't think breast implants, butt implants, curves were really a thing; women didn't wear revealing clothing that showed off their bodies (compared to now). So Audrey was also a product of her time

Lastly - aren't there skinny women who are considered pretty? Look at those runaway models. What about, say, Kiera Knightley?

reply

So you agree.

reply

"Horrible" is a little harsh = my opinion that her body isn't horrible

reply

It is harsh and her body is normal. But it's horrible compared to Hollywood standards nowadays.

reply

Even if you're talking nowadays Hollywood standards, you're out of it. June Shannon has an horrible body. Not Audrey Hepburn. What the hell ??

reply

Thanks for making me google June Shannon as if I didn't have enough regrets already.

I raise you one Gemma Collins from this side of the pond.

reply

The meaning of "curves" may be a little different today, but many female celebrities of those days were certainly noted for having a more voluptuous hourglass figure.

reply

Yup, she's the Elephant Woman!

reply

Wait, so you opened a discussion because of your perception of beauty? And it wasn't a mistake, but a full on thing you HAD TO do? Are you bored?

reply

Just bored with her hype

reply

She had a "model's figure". Tall, thin, leggy, long neck.

But whether you find a model's figure attractive or not is matter of personal taste.

reply

It's not up to modern Hollywood standards

nice sig

Yeah her body is nothing special.If she were around today young she would pale in comparison to someone like Blake Lively or Amber Heard in terms of looks.

reply

Audrey suffered from serious malnourishment after the war, so a lack of curves is entirely expected. That said, she actually had a fairly athletic and fit body, displaying decent muscle tone in some of her movies as well.

A couple of protein shakes and I'd have torn her ass up.

reply

Damn, did not know she had abs!

reply

Her body was perfectly fine. Heaven forbid a Woman be slim.

reply

Yea it was her face that was a problem. Beauty standards back then were bleak.
