These superstar pictures show what the “perfect” male and female bodies look like. While that point is subjective, these bodies are based off of a British poll made by the lingerie brand Bluebella . The polls show what men and women consider the most ideal bodies for both men and women.
The purpose of the images are to show the difference between what men and women consider the perfect bodies. They use famous celebrity body parts to create a mash-up of what perfection looks like.
When it comes to the female bodies, the men preferred a more bodacious female with more obvious parts. The head uses Scarlett Johansson’s hair and Megan Fox’s face. The women chose more understated parts; they used Emma Watson’s hips and Gwyneth Paltrow’s stomach.
For the male bodies, the women went with a more rugged look with Harry Styles’ hair and Brad Pitt’s biceps for example. The men went with a much more bulky but smoother look.
