The beauty is a personal thing. And what’s the beauty nowadays when people go under knives to be (more) beautiful and (more) attractive? Is it familiar to you when someone says that you are as beautiful as a princess? But have you ever seen a princess with a moustache? All aboard, here comes the beauty with moustache. This isn’t a joke. Scroll down and you’ll see!
Anis al- (sitting)
She was so desirable that some men even committed suicide after being rejected
This is, joking aside, a woman and a princess who was certainly not considered ugly. She might even have been considered a beauty.
Even though she was not charming at all, her family was wealthy and she was blonde. The property of her family was enormous, but besides, the princess was one of the few educated women of the time in Iraq.
Anis al-Doleh or soulmate of State
She was so smart and capable that her family asked her advice on matters of governance and management from an early age.
She had a special ability in diplomacy, because her way of expression and her ability to resolve disputes in a peaceful manner prevented many conflicts.
Her wealth and intelligence were, therefore, the two most important features that made her so irresistible.
Nasser al-Din Shah Qajar
In the end, the chosen lover and husband was the Persian king Nasser al-Din Shah Qajar. He ruled over Iran for 47 years, and he ruled over his wives, 84 wives to be more precise.

Nasser al-Din Shah himself printed the photos in the palace laboratory and kept in satin albums in his Golestan Palace, which now is the museum.

Anis was his most important and a queen wife, so she had the lead over the rest.
The king Shah Naser al-Din Shah Qajar, was a powerful macho man in 1948, the fourth most powerful man at that time. His kingdom was the longest in the history of Iran.
Let’s talk a little bit of the female beauty in the Qajar period. I’ll give you few words: thickness in double meaning, thick in eyebrows and chubby. Oh, I mean in an eyebrow, in a unibrow. Hey, one love, one brow. Then, moustache. Thin and shaved, no thanks!
When a foreign merchant asked Nasser why the big sized women were considered beautiful, the king just replied: “When you go to the butchers, do you buy bones or meat?” I am sure you won’t disagree with that.

Maybe the most bizarre fact is that all his wives were wearing tutus. They were copies of Russians ballet dancers who fascinated the king. Speaking of the natural look, they left the legs unshaved. The reason for wearing tutu was the mark “not handsome enough.”

If beauty is in the eye of the beholder then Shah was totally blind.

“When you go to the butchers, do you buy bones or meat?” I love this logic!
Because women are pieces of meat that you can buy…
i hate how this article portrays this person and strong powerful women. It’s so disrespectful. Wow.. and that logic of the meat is so offensive.
Hello, you were mistakley said ” She was one of the educated women in Iraq” she was prince of Iran not Iraq please correct the information you are sharing.
I would prefer to read an account of her life that doesn't resort to making fun of her appearance.
her appearance is the reason of "account of her life" existence. her "beauty" (i guess due to male hormones imbalance) and unusual obsession of some men with her at the time became sensation once those pictures appeared on the net.
The date of the beginning of Nasser al-Din Shah’s reign is 1948. But the correct date is 1848. Please correct.
This was really interesting to me. I'd never heard of her before!
Good information on hisory
In a shop in Cph. I saw a young, foreign girl with a moustache which would have made a young man proud.
These people are nothing but men in women's clothing.
So obvious, so manly.
Tha shah must have been gay.
