The Beauty of Retrospect: Alda Balestra

I last featured Italian model Alda Balestra in April 2017, and I'm happy to revisit her now with three pictures from the late seventies and early eighties, at the height of her career.


The color photo above is from a Sportmax clothing ad, while the two pictures below are from advertising for a German cosmetics brand, Ellen Bertix. And while our heroine looks ravishing in an Ellen Bertix makeup ad . . . 


 . . . she looks drop-dead gorgeous in an Ellen Bertix skin-care ad, this example showing her with a plain face. 😊 


 Like so many other models, Alda Balestra has one of those faces that no makeup artist can ever really improve on. ❤
