What should be the aristocratic appearance

All heard about aristocratic appearance. Many can even say with certainty whether this person is present. But to give this concept a precise definition, few are capable. No wonder, even modern sociological scientists have not been able to do this until very recently. However, after several years of research, a more or less precise definition of the term "aristocratic appearance" was nevertheless highlighted. Of course, there are still disagreements and inaccuracies in it, but this is only a matter of time. And now all those interested can satisfy their curiosity and find out what kind of appearance it is - the appearance of an aristocrat?

Myths about nobles

At once it is necessary to make a reservation that not all people of noble origin have a noble appearance. On the contrary - often the most that neither are the great and "noble" representatives of the human race, the appearance is the most ordinary, often even with some ugliness. The reason for this - the care of the so-called "purity of blood," because of which a couple of the bridegroom or bride could be selected for reasons of not health and especially appearance, and fame of the genus. Sometimes there were related marriages, which, of course, had a negative impact on the children born in them.

Aristocratic appearance: signs

At present, nobility and refinement can be found in a variety of people. The main signs of aristocratic appearance are the following:

• Long face with a high, straight forehead, thin nose - perfectly even or with a slight hump;
• Sufficiently large eyes, a thin line of eyebrows, a narrow chin;
• Hair - any color, but always healthy, well-groomed, shiny, eyelashes and eyebrows - dark, ideally - black;
• Elegant body, creating the impression of refinement, even in the case of completeness;
• Long arms and legs, brushes and feet are miniature, with thin fingers, nails - almond-shaped;
• Very light thin skin, pale or with a pinkish tint, necessarily clean and smooth;
• The correct proportions of the face and body.

Behavior

But, of course, aristocratic appearance is created not only by the above mentioned signs, but also by the manner to keep oneself. True nobility is attached only to a straight posture, a proudly raised head, a direct look, graceful movements and politeness.

"Moon features"

Like any other desire for the better, aristocracy had its shortcomings. So, for quite a long time the "lunar features" were extremely popular - fullness, combined with huge pale eyes, too thin white skin, rounded face. But, contrary to the opinion of the majority, it was not a breakthrough and not the result of carefully calculated marriages, but a genetic defect that resulted from sexual relations between close relatives.

Bastards

Surprisingly, some people even in those old days understood that excessive pallor, weakness and obvious inability to work physically are not good, and they wanted to bring "fresh" blood into their genus by entering into intimate contact with people of "lower" origin . Thus appeared bastards - illegitimate children of the nobility, whose aristocratic appearance put many at a dead end. Well, if a well-known parent recognized such descendants, then they qualitatively improved their kind.
