The canons of beauty They are closely linked to the subjectivity of each person. However, these stereotypes are always there, to differentiate what is beautiful from what is not.
Although beauty pageants can give clues as to where the most beautiful women are, they are far from being an absolute parameter, especially in times of neo-feminism like the current one.
Last year, in a new attempt to establish beauty stereotypes, artificial intelligence (AI), which was so fashionable, among other things, was used to determine which nationality the most beautiful people were.
With much more subjective methods, about ten years ago, a travel magazine established which were the countries with the most beautiful women in the world. The ranking continues to circulate on the networks.
Which country has the most beautiful women in the world?
Traveler’s Digest magazine has compiled a ranking of the cities and towns where, in the opinion of its editors, the most beautiful women in the world lived. Like any selection, and even more so in a subject as subjective as this, it is very particular.
For example, it does not include the Czech Republic, where the brand new is located Miss World 2024, Krystyna Pyszková. And neither did the finalist countries of the competition: Lebanon (Yasmin Zaytoun), Trinidad Tobago (Aché Abrahams) and Botswana (Lesego Chombo).
And on the podium, it seems In third place is the United Stateswith a multitude of models, actresses and singers who stand out for their beauty, such as Bella Thorne, Kim Kardashian, the ever-current Tyra Banks and Kate Upton.
Secondly, It’s Swedenwith representatives of Nordic beauty such as Frida Gustavsson or Theres Aleksandersson, Mona Johannesson, Elsa Hosk, (who walked for Victoria’s Secret), Lisa Berggren (Miss Sweden), or Anna Nyström, a fitness model with eight million followers on Instagram.
First, perhaps Mila Jovovich and Mila Kunis, both actresses, represent few of them to the country that dominates the ranking: Ukraine. Anastasila Lenna, Miss Ukraine 2015, and newcomer Samy, who debuted on the Madrid catwalks in 2022, at the age of 17, are other examples of the beauty of a country at war.
Similarities and differences
Being a more conventional selection, the list of Traveller’s Digest magazine which continues to appear year after year on the web with that historic selection, It doesn’t seem to have many differences. with the list published in 2023 by the company “Pour Moi”, a British multinational fashion, lingerie and swimwear company, based in Brighton, England, after working with a method of Artificial intelligence for selection. We see:
These are top 10 places in Artificial Intelligence:
- India
- United States of America
- Sweden
- Japan
- Canada
- Brazil
- France
- Italy
- Ukraine
- Denmark.
And these are the top 10 in the beauty ranking drawn up by Traveller’s Digest magazine:
- Ukraine
- Sweden
- United States of America
- Argentina
- Bulgaria
- Russia
- Israel
- Holland
- South Korea
- Canada
To find out if beauty parameters change so much depending on how they are analyzed, we wanted to compare these two surveys that have been talked about a lot on the web in recent years. And we will continue to dialogue, with new contributions.
The first thing we see, comparing the two selections, is that There are very dominant criteria of the style of beauty that prevails in the Western gaze.
Whether you choose cutting-edge artificial intelligence or a group of journalists in different countries around the world.
Currently, United States, Sweden, Ukraine and Canada They repeat in both charts. THE magazine choose Argentina and the TO THE TO Brazil, but they’re incorporating South America’s powerful beauty style into the formula. Either one or the other.
In the same way as the magazine choose JapanTHE TO THE choose South Koreaand that’s it: the almond-eyed Orient is covered in the tops of the best women.
Are you choosing something new?
What’s left on each side? Artificial intelligence choose France, Italy and Denmark like three other classic European places, while Magazine places in those still places of European beauty Bulgaria, Russia and the Netherlands. 100% European on both sides if we talk about aesthetics and beauty.
And what else do we notice in the comparison? We could say: two surprise selections. Artificial intelligence puts you first India. And Traveler’s Digest magazine, is that amazing? with Israel in 7th place. But, Are those of India and Israel surprising or two traditional types of beauty?
Just to quickly think about the beauties of Israel, Bar Raffaelliformer girlfriend of Leonardo DiCaprio, she has become a reminder of the beauties of that country also represented by the actresses Gal Gadotwho plays Wonder Woman at the cinema and Natalie Portmanprotagonist of Black Swan and many other wonderful films since his appearance, in 1994, at the age of 13, in The perfect assassinby director Luc Besson, and surrounded by stars such as Jean Reno, Gary Oldman and Danny Aiello.
Although we may not have it in mind, Israel has been a faithful representative of the two most dominant beauty pageants in the world. For some of them it was even the organizational headquarters.
That of Miss Worldfounded in the United Kingdom by Eric Morley in 1951, and where in 1998 the beautiful one won the maximum trophy Linor AbargilFrom Israel. And in the Miss Universe competition, founded in 1952 by the Catalina’s swimsuit brand and the Long Beach City Council, and where in 1976 she was proclaimed the best beauty ever. Rina More (or Messinger), born in Kiryat Tiv’on, Israel, 1.76 m tall. and unappealable measurements of 90-60-90 cm.
Israel is therefore not a surprise. So let’s stay India’s surprisewinner of the AI competition and which, perhaps, did not take into account the traditional beauty parameters of a magazine. Is it any surprise that India is at the top of the world’s beauty? We see?.
Where does the cutest one come from?
Among the 71 winners of the award Miss World of history (it was not done in 2020 due to Covid-19), 6 times (1966, 1994, 1997, 1999, 2000, 2017) the women from India wonTHE most of the contest winners together with Venezuelans, English and Jamaicans followed by 4 trophies each, and then United States, Sweden and Iceland with 3.
While in the very American competition of Miss UniverseYOIndia has won three first places (1994, 2000, 2021) and a first and a second princess), In the history of this competition, India draws with Sweden for three titlesand advantage to the rest of the European nationshistoric in international beauty pageants.
As you can see, Western ideas about women’s beauty have been quite similar over the past 70 years, regardless of breeding technology.
Perhaps the exception is Ukrainewho is neither the winner of Miss World nor of Miss Universe (semifinalist in 2011 and 2014), but it is logical if we think that, with that name, Ukraine has only existed since 1991 and in those countries more than secular nations prevail.
But then, looking at the lists of IA and Traveler’s Digest magazines and comparing them with the historical rankings of Miss World and Miss Universe, we can also conclude the following:
- Canada has 2 Miss Universe (1982, 2005);
- Sweden 3 Miss Universe (1955, 1966, 1984) and 3 Miss World (1951, 1952, 1977);
- Russia 2 My World (1992, 2008) and 1 My Universe (2002);
- Japan 2 My Universe (1959, 2007);
- Argentina 2 Miss World (1960, 1978) and 1 Miss Universe (1962);
- Brazil 1 Miss World (1971) and 2 Miss Universe (1963, 1968);
- France 1 Miss World (1953) and 2 Miss Universe (1953, 2016);
- Italy 3 Miss Universe semifinals (1953, 1982 and 2026);
- Holland (formerly Netherlands) 1 Miss Universe (1989) and 2 Miss World (1959, 1962);
Of the rest of the classified, we can say this Denmark has 1 Miss Universe semifinal (1963). While South Korea AND Bulgariawhich appear in the two comparative rankings of this note, They have not achieved anything in the history of Miss World or Miss Universe.
Do we have any conclusions about which country has the most beautiful women? Beyond a few small details, and after countering the Artificial intelligence commanded by the English with the traditional travel magazinethe truth is that as far as The beauty of womenbeauties It’s them… always.
