Just when you think huge, prominent eyebrows may be going out of style...

"Unibrowed model Sophia Hadjipanteli takes London Fashion Week by storm" (NY Post). Lots of amazing photographs at the link. Is the model some sort of humorist — a satirist of beauty?

Here's the Instagram page for #unibrowmovement.

And here's "This Model Is Making the 'Unibrow Movement' Happen" (Glamour). It's from September 2017, so maybe it means the unibrow movement is not happening, since it hasn't happened yet. I, for one, am sick of having everyone's eyebrows in my face. Back off! And yet, I've got to say I find this more appealing that the overly made-up, un-unified eyebrows that have been annoying me.

Points for originality — and, yes, I know about Frida Kahlo — and naturalness, nerve, and humor:

It's a bit chilly for cold showers in the morning.

tim maguire ayon kay ...

Ewww, no thank you. It wouldn’t be so bad if the eyebrows matched the hair, but as it is, she’s repulsive.

tim maguire ayon kay ...

The only argument I can think of for leaving the unibrow is that it’s natural, the way god made her (which is a perfectly good argument), but this argument is wrecked by the bottle-blond hair.

John henry ayon kay ...

Ugly.

jaydub ayon kay ...

If you think her brows are hairy you should see her back!

rehajm ayon kay ...

Ed Asner brow but no beard or mustache means she's likely cultivating that look. Natural isn't really the idea.

Seeing Red ayon kay ...

Frankenstein.

Or by all means, take us back to the 19th century or earlier.

rehajm ayon kay ...

If there's a unibrow movement it could be a caterpillar.

JMW Turner ayon kay ...

That's...uh...horrifying.

rhhardin ayon kay ...

The unibrow lets you be supercilious and look down your nose at somebody at the same time.

Wilbur ayon kay ...

Whoa!!

That picture certainly gets your attention at 6:30 AM.

I'm not repulsed, but it IS unusual. It would take some getting used to.

Bay Area Guy ayon kay ...

We need a Harvard study to determine the effects of female unibrow on dating opportunies. I suspect the data will show a negative correlation.

Rusty ayon kay ...

Not bad. For a Neaderthal.

Amadeus 48 ayon kay ...

The horror! The horror!

One can pray that we never learn what is going on in those armpits.

Amadeus 48 ayon kay ...

Today’s fragile young men are in no condition to deal with this.

From her arms, you are sent straight to the re-education camp.

Daniel Jackson ayon kay ...

n'importe quoi

stevew ayon kay ...

Not a look that I find attractive. Must be intended as humor, no?

R C Belaire ayon kay ...

Just a bit freaky. Add in the lip job and no thanks.

Curious George ayon kay ...

Wasn't she in Dodgeball? Great movie. Funny.

Amadeus 48 ayon kay ...

Police were called to Bert and Ernie’s house on Sesame Street today as a result of a domestic dispute between the two elderly life partners. EMT unit was sent as Ernie appeared to be taken away unconscious on a stretcher, and police were seen leading Bert away in handcuffs. Sources told CNN that Bert had complained to Miss Piggy about Ernie’s wandering eye. “Piggy said Bert was increasingly distraught by Ernie’s attentions to unibrowed model Sophia Hadjipanteli. Bert told her that he had given the best years of his life to Ernie, and now Ernie was re-evaluating his life and his sexual orientation. Now he was obsessed with the young woman.”

Police sources, who remain anonymous because they are not authorized to speak to reporters, revealed that there appeared to have been a violent altercation at the residence. “It was a [expletive] blood bath in there,” said one policeman.

Jersey Fled ayon kay ...

I'm guessing she got those eyebrows from Hairclub For Men. And the wax lips from a candy store.

Temujin ayon kay ...

Neanderthal look takes London Fashion Week by storm.

Again- there is no accounting for taste. Foremost among those who make a living deciding what is good and bad taste.

Browndog ayon kay ...

Posting that picture first thing in the morning is reader abuse.

MayBee ayon kay ...

no

ngtrains ayon kay ...

Agree with Browndog

Yuck

I don't think she's a natural blond,

JML ayon kay ...

She majored in marketing. People are talking about her and it looks like her brow is giving her a good living. It looks ugly as hell to me, though.

Johnula ayon kay ...

I've checked my calendar and it's not April 1st... I'm going to check again just to be sure.

Jake ayon kay ...

Yeah. No.

Ryan ayon kay ...

Are there even enough people with unibrows to start a "movement"?

It's odd, but doesn't necessarily make a person unattractive. What makes this model look weird is more the contrasting hair colors, which she does on purpose by dying her eyebrows.

Ryan ayon kay ...

It's ironic that she supposedly promotes a body positivity movement, but still has to modify her body with hair dye.

Darrell ayon kay ...

But more importantly, is this one of those women with a dick that the NYT told me about? Once I see the DNA report, I'll decide about the unibrow.

Limited blogger ayon kay ...

Love the darkness of the brows.

My mustache has gone white.

Marcus Bressler ayon kay ...

Can you even imagine the forest of hairiness down THERE? Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Frida Kahlo raises a few eyebrows

Roger Sweeny ayon kay ...

Those lips sure don't look natural.

Fernandinande ayon kay ...

Now do Eddie Munster.

Mary Beth ayon kay ...

It's made weirder by brushing the brow hair straight up instead of in the direction it grows. It makes the rest of her face appear more attractive in contrast, where without the heavy brow, she'd just be generically attractive.

Maddad ayon kay ...

Looks like a muppet.

policraticus ayon kay ...

She is a Greek Cypriot. Her natural brows are what they are, she is a striking presence. But she’s no more “natural” than any other human. Is she a natural blonde? Color me skeptical. She’s wearing make up. That’s not natural. Her hair has been cut and styled. Her photograph has be manipulated by lighting and editing. If she doesn’t want to buy into the prevailing consensus about eye brows, that is fine by me, but don’t pretend it isn’t just as contrived and artificial as other fashion choices. It is her schtick. Good luck to her.

I don’t think she’s going to make “fetch” happen, though. It’s not going to happen.

Maillard Reactionary ayon kay ...

Wow. She looks like one of those female aliens on Star Trek who Captain Kirk found so irresistible.

The Enterprise was out of port for long periods of time, so I can sort of understand it in his case.

ga6 ayon kay ...

Lev Bronstein would approve...

Renee ayon kay ...

But she probably waxed/lasered ever
Ry other part of her body.

The Cracker Emcee Refulgent ayon kay ...

Oh, dear. Not good. But hilarious so it’s all good.

NorthOfTheOneOhOne ayon kay ...

First Impression: When the Hell did Dolph Lundgren go trans?

DarkHelmet ayon kay ...

This is less appealing than the moldy Whopper.

What are you trying to do to us today?

Quaestor ayon kay ...

“It was a [expletive] blood bath in there,” said one policeman.

There was flocking all over the walls, stuck to everything. I've witnessed some horrendous crime scenes in my time on the force, but this one made me puke.

Big Mike ayon kay ...

Sophia Hadjipanteli, what color is the sky on the planet where she comes from? Not to put too fine a point on it, she could play an alien in a Star Trek movie with no makeup whatsoever.

Big Mike ayon kay ...

@Phiddipus, I apologize for overlooking your comment.

Maillard Reactionary ayon kay ...

Big Mike and Phidippus are on the same page today.

J. Farmer ayon kay ...

Prediction: unibrows will no more become a thing than fake camel toes did last year.

Wince ayon kay ...

She must have a bush to beat the band.

Howard ayon kay ...

Nobody minds women with facial hair as long as it's very blond and not readily noticeable.

Now do Eddie Munster.

Beat me to it. Crossed with a blonde Angelina Jolie?

Hammond X. Gritzkofe ayon kay ...

Asking for help. Anyone remember this? Know where to find it.

Maybe 25+ years ago on TV somewhere what I recall was an hour long show of three, maybe four playlets or skits with the unifying memes of unibrows and werewolves. Nice costumes, clever writing - almost poetic. Think Little Red Riding Hood done as an adult romantic-tragical musical comedy. IIRC each skit ended with the line "Never ever trust someone whose eyebrows run together.

The tag-line surfaces from memory couple of times a year, compelling an unproductive search of the internet. Has to be a tape of it somewhere. It was a clever show I would really like to see again.

I hear she braids them using macramé knots.

mockturtle ayon kay ...

Trying to decide which is more disgusting, her or the moldy burger. It's a tossup.

Hammond X. Gritzkofe ayon kay ...

I vote moldy burger for the "toss up."

Hammond X. Gritzkofe ayon kay ...

HA! Betting it is "The Company of Wolves" with Angela Lansbury. Amazon has it, but not included in Prime Video. Hafta pay fer it to find out.

Yancey Ward ayon kay ...

Curious George,

Yes, "Dodgeball" was my very first thought, too.

Greg the class traitor ayon kay ...

My god, that is hideously ugly.

I guess it's a natural progression: first they make the "clothes" repulsive, then they do the same for the models

Andrew ayon kay ...

What ever happened to those beautiful and wholesome Ralph Lauren models from the 70s and 80s. The ones that said in interviews that when they arrived to RL photo shoots they were handed a bar of soap and told to wash their faces.

dbp ayon kay ...

There is an idea that a single small imperfection accentuates beauty. I think the "small" part is being ignored in the case of Sophia Hadjipanteli. Also, arguably the "single" one too, with those lips.

Yikes! Maybe she grew-out her brows to take notice away from her lips?

The penultimate picture shows the young lady in a barely-there bikini. Ms Hadjipanteli is apparently not adverse to all hair removal. Thank God.

Narr ayon kay ...

Prof, you're cruel! That's triggering to me.

And not in a good way

I used to have a kind of mild unibrow (I'm a guy), nothing like that model. I just had a little hair between my eyebrows. Then one day my wife said to me, You look like Sam Donaldson. So I immediately went and had the unibrow removed.

Jaq ayon kay ...

Is this her father?
