Mythic Women Juxtaposed

   
 

 

HELEN & ELIZABETH

Helen's stunning beauty is legendary. Her "face that launched a thousand ships" attracted countless suitors. Abducted by Theseus and later rescued by her Spartan countrymen, she subsequently married the wealthy but prosaic Menelaus. With the assistance of Aphrodite, the dashingly handsome Paris , prince of Troy , seduced her away from her husband and transported her to his homeland, setting into motion the ten years of war between the Greeks and Trojans

Elizabeth's stunning beauty is legendary. With a flawless complexion, exquisite features and an elegant body, her luminous beauty has attracted countless fans whose fantasies are nourished by her roles in films. She has been an extraordinarily successful Hollywood movie star. Married eight times, husbands include the heir of a hotel empire, a British actor and a United States Senator. A connoisseur of jewelry, Elizabeth has created a fragrance which she calls "White Diamonds".
