10 decades in 10 seconds

People can’t seem to make up their minds.

The world of fashion and celebrity can be a cruel place at times because people are judged first on appearance and then on personality.

People, and women in particular, in the limelight are very much under the microscope and if they don’t fit a certain body type, they are criticised, which is sad.

The website Greatest have trawled back through fashion’s history books and came up with this GIF which shows what the “perfect” body supposedly looked like in each decade.

The interesting thing is that “perfect” body drastically changed from decade to decade, have a look.
