You encounter many strange beauty rituals when you visit Paris. Even more so during Fashion Week.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>The unsung heroes include: bright red lipstick used with finesse to both ensnare sexual partners and mark wine glasses; the tiny portion diet regime; back-of-the-uber nose powder sessions; not to mention the Miu Miu-inspired tousled bedhead paired with Givenchy (or botox). But what of the elusive je ne sais quoi <\/i>factor?\u00a0We decided to investigate,\u00a0interrogating beauties of all types in attendance at last week’s shows to discover their definition of true beauty.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Surprisingly, the general attitude towards beauty is theoretically<\/i> quite healthy; the verdict coolly unprovocative. \u2018Beauty\u2019 is heralded as a performance of confidence and, supposedly, \u2018ugly\u2019 doesn\u2019t even exist. Are the times changing? Are we finally conquering impossible beauty standards? All we can say at this point is that no truth serums were present at the time of questioning. And no lie detectors were harmed in the making of this production. Please enjoy a sample platter of opinions that we hope will make you feel good about yourself because, darling, you\u2019re probably beautiful too!<\/span><\/p>\n

\n@madame_cartozo<\/a>: \u201cI love everything that\u2019s not ordinary. I don\u2019t give a shit about fashion. Labels and designers are the antithesis of beauty and I don\u2019t like the prescriptive nature of the fashion world. As Alexandre Vassiliev said, ‘If a woman is wearing only designers, she doesn\u2019t have any taste.’\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@demoiselle_cacha<\/a>: \u201cBeauty is in your attitude. It\u2019s natural. To be vulgar is ugly. But to mix things that seem incompatible, that\u2019s what true beauty is made of \u2014 something unconventional.”
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@assia.s.kaddour<\/a>: \u201cI love playing with makeup; it\u2019s a game for me. I love it for the colours and for the textures. I think you can find beauty everywhere and it\u2019s sadness that\u2019s ugly.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@j_kun<\/a>: “Beauty is to be your true self and to be natural. I\u2019d say my clothes are more important to me than my makeup. Though lipstick can help!”
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@nathalieours<\/a>:\u00a0\u201cBeauty is in the soul; it\u2019s charm that leaks out of a person. With age, beauty becomes more internal. Evil is ugly.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@chennn_y<\/a>: \u201cBeauty is confidence! I\u2019m a cool girl and I\u00a0love wearing cool outfits.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@yeungchin406<\/a>: \u201cBeauty is an aura and when you hone your aura you can make something new. This is fashion. \u2018Ugly\u2019 is a challenge to traditional beauty and is more important than beauty because it can bring us new ideas.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@_adamisaiahstokes_<\/a>: \u201cBeauty is about your personality and how you carry yourself. I don\u2019t believe in \u2018ugly\u2019; if you cherish yourself there is no distinction between beautiful and ugly.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@hwahwalala<\/a>: \u201cBeauty is what the beholder sees and it\u2019s twisted from one person to another. We all have beauty. I feel beautiful when I\u2019m true to myself and I\u2019m not good at compromising this.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@amiira.real<\/a>: \u201cBeauty is personality, and it\u2019s for other people.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@oksanadobriyvecher<\/a>: \u201cYou can\u2019t say what beauty is. Every person can have it but what someone else might see as ugly, I see as the opposite. For example, I have big ears, but I find it beautiful.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@anastsasiia<\/a>: \u201cPeople should see beauty in everything around them. I don\u2019t like it when people don\u2019t find certain desires beautiful. I\u2019m not beautiful but, still, someone might think so. We are living in this world and we should appreciate it.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@martinahornakova<\/a>: \u201cBeauty is everything I\u2019m obsessed with. It\u2019s about colour and makeup. Ugly is something violent but nothing visual.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@drakkar._noir: \u201cYou see beauty in someone\u2019s smile. It\u2019s about charm.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@kristenvbateman<\/a>: \u201cI love experimenting with makeup and trying something new everyday. The way I dress is completely about me. I\u2019ve never been into whats going to appeal to men.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@olivianatalie<\/a>: \u201cExpressing myself makes me feel beautiful. I like not following the rules and doing whatever strikes me. I think ugly is more about bad traits, like being selfish. Being kind makes you beautiful.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\nBrowne: \u201cBeauty is ceremony.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\nOcean: \u201cBeauty is something natural and classy. It\u2019s simple.\u201d
\n 
\n\"\"
\n@bbymilo6<\/a>: \u201cBuying new clothes makes me feel happy and fresh. It makes me feel beautiful. I don\u2019t think you can define ugly; everyone is beautiful in their own way.\u201d
\n
