Evolution of Female Beauty is Captured on Video
Buzzfeed made a 3-minute video, capturing changes in perception of the female beauty. To order to allow the audience to concentrate on various types of figures, the film directors dressed all the models in white swimming suits of the same design. The video depicts eleven periods in history, some of which were presented in the media like “Golden Age of Hollywood”, “Heroin Chic” and “Supermodel Era”.
