ABSTRACT: Aim: The aim of this study is to assess whether the bust of the queen of Egypt Nefertiti discovered 1340 years BC matches today’s standards of beauty and why Nefertiti’s name is dealt with frequently in cosmetic clinics nowadays. Material and Methods: A photogrammetric study of high-resolution original photographs of the bust of Queen Nefertiti was done. The soft tissue proportions of the face were compared to recent anthropological studies of humans from different researches. Results: The different measurements of the face in the form of the three thirds made by the horizontal lines, the symmetry of dimensions made by the vertical lines, the relative measurements of the nose, eyes and mouth were all matching with today’s aesthetic facial parameters. Conclusion: Nefertiti’s bust made more than three millennia is matching with today’s aesthetic facial parameters. It goes without saying that Nefertiti is a fashion model to the current generation.
