“I’ve never thought of my jewellery as trophies. I’m here to take care of it and to love it, for we are only temporary custodians of beauty.”
Elizabeth Taylor.

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD
What is beauty? It lies in the eye of the beholder, say cautious philosophers. But there is beauty universal- a dawn, a sunset, the silver rippling of a book, nature in all her magical manifestations. Woman’s beauty, however, is controversy itself, a thing written in duels as well as drawing-room debates. Unless, of course, the woman is Elizabeth Taylor. A femme fatale even in her teens, today a strange combination of aloofness and sensuousness, she walks in beauty as few others. And this is so whether the camera catches her aware or unaware, under whatever light, in whatever fleeting mood.
