Being the subject of myths and admiration, Russian ladies are used to getting compliments. But Russian standards of beauty are a far cry from those accepted worldwide.
Think Russian women – think beauty, high heels and… now stop here because you won’t find another one of those “Russian women are beautiful stories” here. If some clichés are anything to go by, Russia is populated with stunning brides and blonde tennis players. But what exactly is the famous Russian beauty?
Russian women stunned travelers as early as the 16th or 17th centuries – not by their beauty, but by their love for layers of colorful makeup. And the svelte top models of today are a far cry from traditional good looks Russian-style. Years ago, curves meant good health essential for a girl wanting to get married. After all, as the old saying goes, a man isn’t a dog – he doesn’t pounce on bones.
