The Cut is back with their latest installment in a fascinating video series called 100 Years of Beauty. In it, they manage to condense a century-worth of female beauty, hairstyle, and trends into about a minute. The episodes take us around the globe, and so far, we've been to places like the United States, Mexico, and Iran, as well as North and South Korea. This newest video explores decades of beauty standards in the Philippines.
The model, April, shows off a range of styles, including: ornate pageant crowns from the 1930s; colorful headbands and funky jewelry of the 1970s; and a zigzag part that's straight from the 1990s. There's even a nod to the '40s Hukbalahap Rebellion as April brandishes a gun.
Check out Cut's Pinterest board to see a side-by-side comparison of the looks with the photos that inspired them.
