Abstract

Society’s idea of beauty has drastically changed throughout the decades, majorly because of the fashion industry’s top models. Models such as Twiggy and Kate Moss have shifted the idea of what is considered beautiful, not only because of their iconic fashion looks, but also because of their role as celebrities and reflections of their time period.
