* ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'': Or at least the most beautiful within Gotham City. Considering the [[DudeMagnet sheer number of men who've shown attraction]] to [[Characters/DCAUPoisonIvy Poison Ivy]] a strong case could be made of her representing this. During the frat boy encounter in "Harley & Ivy" for instance, they seem far more interested in Pam than Quinn.

* Parodied with Amanda Becker, the "Perfect Girl", in ''Film/NotAnotherTeenMovie''. When she shows up somewhere, the crowd instantly fades away to give her the focus -- one of the background characters even enforces this rule to another during a party scene -- and a DeletedScene shows her receiving love confession notes from a whole line of guys.

** Another [[GenderInvertedExample Male Example]]. Hyacinthus, Prince of Sparta. He was so beautiful that three gods were in love with him. The sun god Apollo, the one that Hyacinthus loved back and chose as his lover. The other two were Zephyrus, the god of the west wind and his brother Boreas, god of the North Wind. Boreas seems to have gracefully bowed out when Hyacinthus chose Apollo. Zephyrus on the other hand went {Yandere} at the poor prince and killed him out of jealously.

** Among mortal human women Éowyn of the Rohrrian is most certainly the fairest with a multitude of men being attracted to her and even Aragon who has known the aforementioned Arwen most of his life, acknowledges her great beauty. Faramir states to Éowyn "In the valleys of our hills there are flowers fair and bright, and maidens fairer still; but neither flower nor lady have I seen till now in Gondor so lovely, and so sorrowful". Keep in kind when her direct competition are divinely blessed elven women, Éowyn is clearly doing so something right. Éowyn has the bonus of being mightiest mortal woman by the Third Age too with her feat of taking down the Witch King (though granted she had some help from Merry and his Númenórean Dagger).

* In the ''ComicBook/RisingStars'' comics, there is a character who appears as the most perfect woman to anyone who sees her. Only one man sees her as she really is, and that's the man who loves her.
* ''ComicBook/TheSandman1989'' has Nada, who is so beautiful that there isn't a single mortal who is worthy of her. Unfortunately, this attracts Desire's attention, and we all know how he likes to mess with Dream...

* ''Literature/TheBelgariad'': While there are a lot of beautiful women encountered throughout the series, they all take second place to Polgara, who has had centuries to perfect her appearance. It's implied that she adds a little sorcery to the mix without intending to, just as Belgarath unconsciously uses sorcery to keep his body fit and strong despite his [[WizardClassic apparent physical age]].

* ''Anime/PantyAndStockingWithGarterbelt'': Panty's the one who's out to get all the boys, but Stocking is also considered drop-dead gorgeous in-universe. When they make their entrance into Daten City High in "Turmoil of the Beehive," the entire student body is immediately stunned, with one boy exclaiming "Rich girls!" and another saying "Goddesses!" The English dub has the students thinking they're celebrities instead.

* ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'' holds that there are three such women who the most beautiful in human history: Cleopatra, Consort Yu/Yu Miaoyi/Yu Mei-ren, and Helen of Troy. The first two of these have already been introduced as playable characters [[spoiler:though Yu is also revealed to [[OurVampiresAreDifferent not actually been human in the first place]]]], but Helen has yet to appear. Other top contenders are Brynhildr, Mata Hari, Marie Antoinette, Yang Guifei, Stheno, and Euryale. Astolfo and Gao Changgong/Lanling Wang were considered among the most beautiful men. Lanling is so pretty that he has to wear a mask to keep his allies and enemies from being distracted. In at least one [[Anime/FatePrototype alternate universe]], [[spoiler:[[GenderFlip Merlin]]]] fits the bill, though she's not entirely [[HalfHumanHybrid human]]. In the British Lostbelt, Fairy Knight Lancelot/Melusine was considered the most beautiful fairy, but she disagrees and thinks that title belongs to Aurora. Sancho Panza is a CompositeCharacter with several characters in Don Quixote's story, including Princess Dulcinea, so she is protective of her status as this trope in the eyes of her lord. Therefore, she gets jealous when he seems to want to fight for Marie Antoinette's honor, and she's flattered that his wish for the Grail is to have the world acknowledge Dulcinea's beauty, therefore technically hers, as being beyond compare. Ironically, Don Quixote only sees her as his faithful sidekick Sancho Panza, so he's oblivious to the fact that the ideal beauty that he constantly proclaims to the world is right there faithfully at his side, finally physically incarnated rather than a mere figment of his imagination.
