1990s – The Waif
By now, you should’ve seen the sequence in all of these ideal trends of the body already. It seems like the decade that follows is always a response to the one before it. In the ’90s, we saw the waif become popular. This type of woman, if she had any, was short and thin with a few curves. This look is called ‘heroin chic’ by some people. As you’ve seen, this is really dissimilar from the ideal body in the ’80s.

Talented And Gorgeous – Winona Ryder
Look no further if you are looking for a woman that might fit that criterion! The poster child of that look is Winona Ryder. The gamine had a doll-like face and delicate shoulders around her, almost a lollipop structure. Ben Stiller, her costar, said once, “She’s like a little figurine for the coffee table!“ That probably helped her professional life to some degree. Of course, she is, at the same time, a talented actress.
