According to a plastic surgeon, who has developed a facial mapping, Princess Diana would have the face closest to the Greek idea of physical perfection.
What is beauty? Does it consist in significant physical attractiveness or barely concealed charm? Is it a perceptible thing? So many philosophical questions to which Dr Julian De Silva, a British plastic surgeon, wanted to give scientific answers.
As The Sun reveals, the doctor, who specialises in facial surgery, has developed computerised facial mapping, which calculates the “perfect” shape of the face. And according to his results, Princess Diana, renowned for her timeless physique, is the closest to the “Golden Ratio of Beauty Phi”, with a score of 89%.
Not far behind William and Harry’s late mother, Queen Rania of Jordan would follow with 88.9%, Grace Kelly with 88.8%, then Meghan Markle with 87.4%. Kate Middleton would complete this Top 5 with a no less honourable score of 86.8%.
In his research, Julian De Silva had the eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, chin, jaw and face shape of different women from royal families around the world measured to see which one would come closest to the Greek idea of physical perfection.
Meghan Markle, near-perfect nose
“Diana got high marks for her facial shape, the width of her nose, the arch of her eyebrows and her eyebrows. Her lowest scores were for her chin and lips,” the doctor commented to our British colleagues.
Meghan Markle has a “beautiful symmetry of the face”, in particular thanks to an “almost perfectly shaped nose and a beautiful V-shaped chin”. Kate Middleton has a “perfect gap” between her nose and lips. But can beauty come down to physical perfection? This is a philosophical question again, and the answer is not likely to be a mathematical one.
