What The "Perfect" Woman Looks Like In 18 Different Countries
Â
Spoiler alert: they're definitely not all the same.What's considered beautiful in China drastically differs from what Italians or Egyptians associate with beauty.UK online pharmacy Superdrug Online Doctors' recent project, called "Perceptions Of Perfection," is proof of that.The
company asked female graphic designers from around the world to
Photoshop a photo of the same woman with the goal of making her more
attractive to other citizens of their respective countries."Widely
held perceptions of beauty and perfection can have a deep and lasting
cultural impact on both women and men," a press release reads.
"The goal of this project is to better understand potentially
unrealistic standards of beauty and to see how such pressures vary
around the world."As you'll see, some places, like Spain and
Venezuela, prefer the voluptuous body type — tiny waists, large breasts
and curvy hips — while others, like China and Italy, idealize a body
that's stick-thin everywhere. (No idea why most of them look super
sunburned, though.)Here's the original image before the designers Photoshopped it
