Preface:
Fashion, what exactly is eternal beauty?
"Beautiful as a fairy", "captivating the country and the city", "peerless", these words to describe beauty seem to have become a cliché.
When we go back in time to the eighties and nineties, a model contest that took place in Guangzhou made us re-examine the connotation of oriental women's beauty.
This is a new era - the spring breeze of reform and opening up is blowing all over the country, the prison of thought has been broken, and people have begun to pursue fashion and advocate beauty.
In this context, in 1989, the first model contest in the mainland kicked off in Guangzhou.
The crowd competes for beauty, each leading the way
Beauties from all over the country gathered in Yangcheng, they have different backgrounds, but they have the same dream.
Female factory workers, university students, art groups...... On this stage, they found an opportunity to show themselves.
The competition is divided into multiple links, not only limited to appearance, but also pays more attention to internal cultivation.
The catwalk shows the test of typhoon, the talent show shows the versatility, and the knowledge quiz shows the wisdom style.
For a while, the beauties bloomed on the stage, dazzling the audience and judges.
Ye Jihong: The undefeated demeanor of the East
In this battle of dragons and tigers, a girl from Harbin stood out, she was Ye Jihong, who was later known as the "Queen of the T-runway".
God has blessed her with a delicate face: a pair of watery and tender eyes, a high nose bridge, and slightly pursed red lips, all of which show the charm of oriental women.
Her body is perfectly proportioned, with slender legs and a slender waist that is held in a beautiful way.
However, what really makes Ye Jihong outstanding is her unique temperament.
Whether she is wearing a dignified and elegant dress or a smart and neat professional attire, she can control it with ease, and her gestures are full of calmness.
In the competition, Ye Jihong won the favor of the judges with his calm typhoon, witty response and humorous conversation.
She not only shows extraordinary external beauty, but also exudes an inner light of independence and self-confidence.
Many years later, netizens still miss her.
"If Ye Jihong participates in the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant, she will definitely be able to win the championship!"
Such comments appear from time to time, which shows her status in people's minds.
Yao Peifang: The third runner-up who is gentle as an orchid
Fighting side by side with Ye Jihong, there is also a girl with a gentle temperament - Yao Peifang.
Although she finished third, her beauty is just as impressive.
Yao Peifang has a soft face, her slightly baby fat cheeks are full of girlish greenness, but there is a mature woman's style between her eyebrows and eyes.
She was dressed in a plain white dress, like a pure and immaculate lily, which made people can't help but want to pamper her.
However, when she changed into a flaming red dress, she transformed into a passionate and unrestrained girl.
Yao Peifang shows the multi-faceted nature of oriental women, soft with rigidity, rigidity with softness.
The 10,000-year-old style at a glance was intoxicating, and the judges and the audience were also impressed by her charm.
Although she did not win the crown, Yao Peifang was worthy of this grand event.
Lunatha: A dark horse as cold as fire
In addition to Ye Jihong and Yao Peifang, there is also an unforgettable player - Lu Nasha.
She did not enter the top three, but she became a dark horse with a cold and glamorous temperament.
Lunatha was tall from the crowd, with slender legs like a pair of chopsticks, straight and slender.
She has fashionable tin foil perms and exquisite makeup, like an actress from Hollywood.
Dressed in a black dress with black gloves, she walked on the catwalk like an elegant black swan.
Lunasha exudes the charm of a mature woman, which seems to be slightly out of harmony with this stage, but it is impossible to take your eyes off it.
Although it did not achieve the desired position, the presence of Lunata added a touch of color to this competition.
Truth is eternal
Nowadays, the aesthetic of "white and thin" is popular in the fashion circle, and plastic surgery and filters seem to have become the standard for beauty.
When we re-examine this model contest that took place more than 30 years ago, we find that truth is the eternal law of beauty.
At that time, the beauties did not have the blessing of PS or the modification of beauty cameras, and their beauty came from their inner self-confidence and unique temperament.
As netizens said: "The beauties at that time were so beautiful that they had their own merits, unlike the Internet celebrity faces carved on the assembly line now." "
Yes, beauty should never be the same.
Everyone has their own beauty, or gentle, or bold, or cold, or cute.
We should learn to appreciate different kinds of beauty, rather than blindly following the so-called "aesthetic standards".
Epilogue:
May every girl find her own beauty, live her true self, and become the most shining existence.
