Nefertiti

Nefertiti stands as one of the most powerful and influential women of her time. Together with husband Akhenaten, Egypt’s most notorious beauty reigned during a time of great prosperity for Egypt. Some historians even claim that she took over rule under the pseudonym, Neferneferuaten after her husband’s death, before the ascension of King Tut.

She is regarded as one of the most beautiful women throughout history, her ancient bust found in the tomb of Akhenaten became the gold standard of feminine power for decades after its discovery. Her modern-day portrayal is equally as impressive, and she’d likely turn a few heads if found on the city streets of today.
