In different countries and at different times, arms, legs, and even the neck were considered the most beautiful part of the female body. However, it is the thin waist that traditionally attracts the attention of men and causes the burning envy of women. Thin waist and lush hips have always been considered not only beautiful, but also served as a guarantee that a woman will bring her husband many healthy children. However, gradually the topic of posterity receded into the background, only aesthetic moments remained. The thinnest waist in the world - which girl does not attract such a title?
To find out who had
the thinnest waist in the world without a corset is very difficult. In the nominations of the Guinness book, there is no such section, you can only recall celebrities. And then Lyudmila Gurchenko and Sophia Loren come to mind. Both had a waist of about fifty centimeters, which is very beautiful, amazing, charming. They can not only be envied, but also imitate, because neither one nor the second artificially reduced their waist in any way, achieving the beauty of the figure using methods completely natural.
Well, if you list unnatural methods, then you immediately recall the famous accessory, which many spoiled the health, and some ladies even cost their lives. Corset - a cage made of fabric and a whalebone. In the century before last, it was widespread everywhere and was worn on any events: both for walks and games, sports meetings, riding in carriages and horses, and at balls. It got to the point that ladies wore corsets even during pregnancy. And all this for the title "the narrowest waist in the world."
Stunning fanaticism was justified - the corset emphasized the curves of the figure, reduced the waist, visually increased the chest and hips. They wore it from childhood, treating it as a normal part of the toilet. The narrowest waist in the world, as it was believed then, was from a Frenchwoman, a famous actress named Poehler (in fact, her name was Emilia Maria Busho) - only 33 centimeters. She began to perform in a music hall in Paris in the last decade of the 19th century, she became an opera and dramatic actress, starred in films and even wrote memoirs.
The lady who grabbed the title "the thinnest waist in the world" was Ethel Granger from the UK. Her husband was an ardent admirer of corsets and an hourglass figure. He insisted that his wife wear this dragging product. In just ten years, the lady managed to achieve a waist of 24 centimeters.
Well, the most famous lover of these cruel attributes of beauty was the "queen of corsets" named Katie Jung. Her waist is only 38 cm, and she was achieved in thirty years of constant body pulling. She takes off her corset for only half an hour a day. I must say that she was not always like this: at 28, she gave birth to two children and decided to listen to the wishes of her husband, persuading her to wear corsets. Now she has more than a hundred of these products, and the lady even got into the Guinness Book of Records.
Now the holder of the title "the thinnest waist in the world" for seventy years, however, she continues to flaunt in corsets and reduce her waist. Of course, she has to sew clothes to order, because she simply cannot find a suitable one in the store. However, to follow in the footsteps of Katie or not, it is up to each of the fair sex. In the end, the figure obtained after wearing the corset is specific and does not indicate good health.
