The Most Voluptuous Lips of All Time, From Angelina Jolie Pitt to Marilyn Monroe

Just as the name Jane Birkin will forever be synonymous with cool-girl bangs and it’s hard to imagine Cindy Crawford sans million-dollar mole, Vogue cover girl Angelina Jolie Pitt will be remembered for one look-defining feature: supernaturally full, bee-stung lips.
Oozing the same potent allure as, say, the curve of a bikini-clad hip or tousled head of waves, a voluptuous mouth has always been a key factor in the bombshell beauty equation—and, if a closer look at our favorite film and music icons is any indication, it could even be argued that full lips are a stealth mark of predestined greatness. Take New Wave icon Brigitte Bardot, who did as much for beige lipstick as she did for bedhead with a prominent pout that proved irresistible with her gap-toothed smile—a winning combination on which models like Lara Stoneand Lindsey Wixson would later build their careers.
Marilyn Monroe and Sade made mouths painted in rich crimson pigment their signature, but it was Rihanna who taught us that there’s no better way to celebrate your best asset than with a rainbow of fearlessly off-kilter shades.
But it’s not only women whose mouths are etched into our collective memory: Mick Jagger and Steven Tyler set the bar for rock ’n’ roll sensuality—and passed on their unmistakable genes to daughters Georgia May Jagger and Liv Tyler, respectively, in the process.
In honor of Jolie Pitt’s November cover, above is a look at 16 of the most memorable mouths in history.
