According to www.dictionary.com beauty is "the quality present in a thing or person that gives intense pleasure or deep satisfaction to the mind, whether arising from sensory manifestations (as shape, color, sound, etc.),a meaningful design or pattern, or something else (as a personality in which high spiritual qualities are manifest)." Throughout time the idea and picture of a "beautiful" woman has changed. In the 1960's there were many different ideas and views of beauty going around. For example Marilyn Monroe was a sex icon, known for her curves. But many feel that by today's standards she would be viewed as "fat". Elizabeth Hurley said "I've always thought Marilyn Monroe looked fabulous, but I'd kill myself if I was that fat.'' Another key figure of beauty in the 1960's was model Twiggy. Twiggy was known for her boyish slender figure, and big eyes that caused a sensation in the fashion world.
