The Most Beautiful Supermodel of All Time: Kate Moss Crowned Queen of the Golden Ratio
The world of fashion has witnessed countless iconic faces, but one name now reigns supreme: Kate Moss. The legendary British supermodel has been declared the most beautiful supermodel of all time, boasting an extraordinary 94.14% accuracy to the Greek Golden Ratio of Beauty Phi, a mathematical formula synonymous with perfection for centuries.
The Science Behind Beauty
The Golden Ratio, rooted in ancient Greek philosophy, has long been considered the benchmark for aesthetic harmony. This mathematical equation, a ratio of 1.618 has been used to guide proportions in art, architecture, and even human beauty. The closer the proportions of a face align with this ratio, the more they reflect the ideal of perfection.
Employing advanced computerised facial mapping technology, Dr. Julian De Silva, a renowned Harley Street facial cosmetic surgeon, analysed the faces of supermodels spanning the “Supermodel Era” of the 1980s to today’s fashion icons. Every feature from eyes and eyebrows to lips, chin, jawline, and overall facial symmetry was meticulously measured.
Kate Moss: The Timeless Icon
Kate Moss, now 51, emerged as the definitive supermodel, scoring highest in key categories such as jawline (96.5%) and chin (95.6%).
Dr. De Silva shared his insights: “Kate Moss is the undisputed queen of the catwalk and the most super of all the supermodels. She was assessed at the peak of her beauty, just after her first Vogue cover in 1993. Her near-perfect jawline and chin make her stand out as an icon of natural beauty.”
Even today, Moss’s features retain their allure, proving her timeless appeal.
