What is sexy? Well, it depends when you're asking. The ideals of sex appeal have evolved a lot over the past century.
什么是性感?这要看你是在哪个时代问的。过去一百年间,性感的标准经历了巨大的演变。
In the 1900s, it was a given that women would wear corsets under their dresses. The corsets played up the ideal hourglass figure, creating the impression of an S-shaped body. Stomachs were sucked in, making hips and breasts look bigger by comparison.
20世纪初,女性长裙里面穿紧身胸衣被认为是理所当然。 紧身胸衣塑造了完美的沙漏型身材,呈现出S型曲线。紧身胸衣有收腹效果,相比之下,臀部和胸部显得更丰满。
Things started to shift in the 1910s, as make-up grew in popularity among the Hollywood set. However, wearing make-up was still frowned upon by some, so many women would hide it and apply surreptitiously to play up their features, taking cues from the motion picture industry's trend-setting starlets.
20世纪10年代,化妆在好莱坞逐渐风靡,性感的定义开始有所转变。然而,有些人仍反对化妆,因此很多女性会模仿电影业里引领潮流的年轻女星,偷偷摸摸地化妆以凸显自己的面部特征。
