I'm talking about women Lena Horna, Marylyn Monroe,Jane Russell,Eva Gardner, and Dorthy Dandrigde. Why do we rarely see that kind of beauty anymore? And when we do why is it so refreshing?

The beauty these women have is a "natural" beauty. Meaning, they look good at all times with or without makeup on. They look sexy and beautiful, even when they awake in the morning.The only makeup they need is to highlight there attractive features. The facial structure, sparkling eyes and hair to match is very appealing to the public, especially the men... LOL. They didn't try to flaunt their looks as some women in the limelight do today. Their personalities are also a very attractive trait. Today we very rarely see this kind of beauty, and I suppose it has to do with societies view on sexuality.. Seems we need to see more "flesh" and "sexy" attitudes, unlike the beautiful women of yesteryear. When we see a classic beauty today, it brings back memories of just what true beauty really is.. It is something that has been lost over time and needs to be brought back into plain view...

We absolutely see that kind of beauty today. Eye of the beholder I guess but if you cant say....just go to the mall and see at least one gorgeous woman I think you may be lost in the fifties like Ronny Milsap. All the classic traits are there its just that pointy bras and hairdos that require 1/2 can of hairspray arent much in style these days for the most part. Sounds like youre maybe a big breast fan too. Personally Ive seen plenty of what I consider classicly beautiful woman with small breasts. I think theyre sexier. I really hate to see a woman with sexy small breasts go and ruin them with implants.

beauty is in the eye of the beholder....
that and the fact that these ladies you mention had private lives to a much larger degree than celebs today. Not to mention they were much more mysterious (not all their affairs in the street) and it made ppl much more intrigued and in awe of them. They may have been as out there as some of the newbie celebs..but the studios never let their fans see that side of them. Kept them larger than life and very lady like....
They were pretty but the fact that they were "perfect" was what sold them....
so when we "see" young stars like Hallie, Alisha Keyes, Charlize....we put them on a little higher pedestal...not just for being pretty but for being decent ppl that seem to carry themselves and their lives with some form of discipline and decorum...makes us a little more respectful of them because they are of themselves.

Symmetrical features on the face and clear skin are considered to be most appealing to the eye and is the standard of beauty around the world for thousands of years.

What all these women achieve is quite astonishing really. Ok they are naturally attractive but somehow they project an image that is very sexy: simultaneously the image says I love sex and I am amazing at it but I am also nice not a tart or slutty in any way.
It's all image of course you can only judge people on their actions and motives.

To the original question just look in the mirror and smile that is classic beauty! It's refreshing to see it because we know that it does exist even if we choose to not believe it!

We dont see the
kind of beuty they have because not that many people are naturally that beautiful,there are typically 'beautiful'girls you see probably all the time,but all those women had something individual about them,thats what made them truly beautiful.

The clothes are too skimpy these days.
