I'm iranian and that 1980's one made me tear up.

you can really see when the Iranian Revolution happened

It makes me sad & angry at the same time. I'm iranian, and i hate the fact we are forced to wear hijab. Iran used to be so beautiful and peaceful... but now... i just hate being in here

So the grandmas of today in Iran were more modern than the children

My mom is Iranian and although I never visited Iran, I have seen my mom's pictures from the 70s and 80s and the video rightly captured most of the style of that era. Iranian women have a distinct charm and I am glad that I at least was fortunate to manage to have at least half of this heritage!

This to me is the most powerful shows how big of social changes can happen in just one decade.

Iranian women are so beautiful.

with everything happening right now in Iran, I remembered this powerful video and I hope all the Iranian women out there stay strong and keep fighting for the rights that they deserve✊🏼 it pains me that so many individuals have to put their life at steak just to have their voices heard, but an evolution happened before and another one is happening now..and I hope they’ll be able to get through this with success and hope for a brighter future💪🏼 keep fighting Iran and don’t give up for what women deserve

This has shown me how ignorant I still am about much of human history. I am constantly learning but I had no idea that Iranian women had more of a western style for several decades.

I found this really scary, how suddenly they start covering and makeup just disappears - it's such a contrast! I love this series, it's really interesting and also educational - thank you :) x

My whole family is from Iran and they have always told how Iran used to be very opening and very kind to anyone who would come there but now it’s a wreck. If only it would go back to its original state. It would for the better 🇮🇷✨💖🥺

I got tears in my eyes when they showed 1980. It’s such a tragedy, man those, who helped the Revolution at that time and regret it now, be damned forever.

The model is soooo pretty!!!

ok so people are asking what happened after 1980, lemme just clear a few things up: -The Islamic revolution happened in 1979. An Islamic leader overthrew the monarchy and it all seemed like an okay idea back then but as time went on we realised this revolution caused a great deal of bullshit to happen. Not to mention the lack of freedom and oppression of the civilians by our shitty government, all under the name of Islam. -The majority of Iranians were Muslim before the Islamic revolution happened. They didn't suddenly become Muslim after 1980 (and a lot of them wore Hijab too) -The reason you see the women wearing Hijabs after 1980 is simply because after the Islamic revolution, there were laws enforced onto all women which required them to cover themselves in public, whether they liked it or not -So what you see in the video is basically how a woman in Iran presented herself in public throughout the decades -After 1980, you see their HIjab style loosening up as the Iranian women found new ways to be fashionable and showcase their beauty despite the limitations of the Islamic dress code. (Because us Iranian girls take good care of ourselves and we can look fabulous no matter what gets in our way ;* ) -Also... disclaimer: the Iranian government may call itself "the islamic republic" but in my opinion they are in no way representative of Islam because under Islamic law you are not allowed to force a woman to wear a HIjab, you are not allowed to arrest her for not wearing one, you are not allowed to invade people's privacy and take their satellite dishes from their homes etc. etc. all of which the Iranian government does to their own people. (So next time you insult a religion without knowing its actual teachings, think... Maybe it's not the religion. Maybe it's the people in power doing evil deeds in the name of religion.) -Thank you, a Muslim Iranian woman

She has such tender facial expressions, she literally glows in every era

Her face drop in 1980s like a caged bird 🥺

Next, you should do 100 years of Chinese beauty. The styles have really changed over the years

she looks like a mix of angelina jolie and salma hayek

One of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen.

1980's was a funeral for Iran.

I showed this video to my mother and her sister and they started tearing up.

Iran has a great history, but unfortunately we live in the worst times of Iran. I hope things change and we will rebuild Iran

I hope Iranian women will live free again soon 💙 from 🇬🇷

I’m 1/4 Iranian and I really wish my grandfather had shared the culture and language. My mother never was allowed to learn Farsi or much about Iran and it’s been very frustrating for her (and me as well) to not know a significant part of her identity. The one thing he made sure of is that everyone in the family have an authentic Persian rug.

this model has a really stunning jawline. i really hope that doesnt sound weird, it's just very eye-catching

I remember talking with a older woman who was born in Afghanistan and I was surprised how fashionable and outrageous she was. She told me that in her country when she was young they had more freedom. She said when she was a teenager she was able to wear what she want without fear it's just recent years with the Taliban that cause all this oppression to her homeland.

Greeting from Poland 🇵🇱 to all Iran 🇮🇷 women’s ❤️

Iranian people are one of the most beautiful people I've ever seen

This made me tear up. I'm half Iranian and I have never been to Iran and I can't even speak the language but I love Iran so much. I'm also not a Muslim so I don't really understand but what I do know is that a lot of Iranian women wants their freedom back. Just look at how happy they look before 1980's. This is making me sad

I'm glad that the 2009 protests were acknowledged, as well as how currently Iranian women are rebelling against the status quo.

The fact is that Iranians are one of the most stylish people in the world.

Who else is here because of what happened recently in Iran? 😭💔

I was shocked to see they used to be uncovered.. weird to see they regressed

1930's-1970's I was not expecting that! Cool. I learned something new. :) I'm really glad I found this video, it taught me more than I thought it would. (Especially the replies on this comment! Awesome history lessons.)

Cut to 2022 and there are protests in Iran today after a woman was killed in police custody for not wearing their head covering properly. Hopefully the 1950-60 will make a comeback.

And the fact is Iranian people are beautiful both inside and out. I just love them and would love to visit there once in my life. Lots of love to all the Iranians from India. 💖💖💖💝💝💝

Iranians are beautiful

I just saw this video and proceeded to go through my family's old pictures from the 30's and on in Iran. It really shows the roller coaster of a journey Iranian people, specially women, have gone through in the past 100 years. Great job guys.

She’s so beautiful I forgot what video I was watching, I just stared into her eyes for a minute straight and it ended.

boy oh boy if my motherland was free, you'd all see how gorgeous it really is

To all people who are talking about terms like 'inner beauty', 'their culture', 'They are beautiful in their own culture', blah blah blah. Mandatory Hijab IS OPPRESSION simply because it IS MANDATORY. (Although I think in 90 percent cases voluntary hijab is also oppression by family or a regressed perverted society). It is ordered by the government and it is obviously against the human rights. Some of you are looking at other countries like an aquarium: "Let them have their own culture." "They are happy the way they are." "They were like this 200 years ago" ... If you think it is cool for women to be forced to cover their heads why don't you go and live there yourselves? If you say "it has been their culture for centuries.", don't you think slavery was an American culture? or cutting heads and hands and legs is culture of some miserable brainwashed terrorists? what about women circumcision? Please don't tell me that I don't know about Iranian culture because I have born and lived there for 23 years. Even if hijab is choice of some people in Iran it doesn't make sense to make it mandatory for all.

The 1980's is so terribly sad. When women lost there choice in what clothing they wear. I hope in 2019 women stand up for themselves.

Please read. I live in Iran, Where I was born, a woman cannot have even her most natural right Like the type of clothing, the right to sing and even the right to ride a bike Yes, it is true, name of this place is Iran Maybe European Muslims may have only restrictions on schools and jobs But in Iran, women, even non-Muslim women, should wear headscarves Just because they believe women's hair stimulates men's sexuality Just as you want everyone to choose their own cover, we also want to choose our own cover in our own Iran and according to our own taste.Women in Iran have been humiliated for forty years

After hearing the recent news about Iran's hijab laws, I hope things get better for them

I’m not persian, but I hope one day I can visit and explore Iran 🇮🇷 and I know for a fact the people have a lot of hospitality ❤️

They went back in time

The hijab covering getting relaxed is the most uplifting part

Does anyone notice that every decade since 1990 they show more hair?

How she removes her headscarf and goes forward at the end - a powerful message.

Im from Iran and 1980 makes me sad

I love Iran and Iranians. 🇮🇷 They have an amazing country and civilization. I also would love to learn Farsi. May Allah bless them. Ameen. From Egypt 🇪🇬

only iranians can says that their older generation were free than younger ones

WISH IRAN COULD GO BACK TO HOW IT USE TO BE 🇮🇷🌹✨

Is she real? She is one of the most prettiest girls i have ever seen. Such Perfection

Persian women are so beautiful. I hope they are free to choose what they wear in the near future.

Regardless of how she looks, you can't deny that Sabrina is the most beautiful girl i've ever seen.😍😍🖤🖤

She is SO beautiful!

After watching the whole playlist, I noticed that girls from Germany and Italy smiled and laughed much much more, and girls from Korea and Iran smiled either politely or shyly, which portrays their countries very well. Whether this is intentional or not, this is magnificent, I love it very much. Please, do continue making these, they're amazing.

Women Life Freedom

Her jawline 😍 Iran's peaple are so beautiful Am in love ❤💕

As a Persian, the 1980s really hits me

i'm concerned about some of the comments here that sounded like putting on a hijab is a bad thing. Just because they stopped being westernized it doesn't mean that they are being oppressed. I actually like how they maintained this aspect of their culture and even managed to make it look fashionable

Freedom to be who you are, Free Iran 🦁 ☀️

Let's just hope that the 2020s allow Iranian women to dress the way they like

Finally, some accurate depiction of Iranian women by western media

1920's is the best but the 1980's is sad

Dear fellow Iranians, do not forget our history. Our homeland has often been under the yoke of Arabs but we have always managed to break free one day - and what's most important is that we do not forget who we are or to preserve our culture and heritage.

Actually, when I look at ancient Iranian women, I feel sad because they are so beautiful when they dress the way they really want.(Greetings from Turkey to Iran!!)😻😻💗

Seems the 1960’s hit hard =EVERYWHERE=

1980's almost makes me cry ....

woman. life. freedom. i stand with my Iranian brothers and sisters 🇦🇲❤🇮🇷

As an iranian who is living in iran: the islamic revolution was the most messed up sh!t happened to this country.

This is actually the saddest 109 years of beauty video of them all.

A women's character and attitude is what makes her special. Women shouldn't be judged on how they look or how useful they are. I think Hijab is one of the best things to reveal the real beauty of a woman. Women in the west don't appreciate the beauty of their minds and souls enough.

I'm Iranian and that 1980s makes me cry

2020 we need a new look 👍

everybody on here arguing about islam and the 1980s, and i'm just here like, ummm.... rock that unibrow, sistah!

It's so sad what has happened to Iran.

I'm a white American but I took three Iranian History classes with an Iranian professor who's blacklisted for being Bahai but another important thing to note is the Pahlavi dynasty of the 20th century did a lot of forced unveiling for women. Many wanted to and embraced it, but many others wanted the freedom to choose whether or not to veil. Veiling itself isnt oppressive, its taking away anyone's choice on whether or not they chose to do so.

She kinda looks like gal gadot in some of these, specifically the 1940s look.

tbh this girl slays so much she even kinda rocked that unibrow at the beginning

1980 Iran R.I.P

Her lips are so beatiful

as an iranian, this is sad af to watch

Persian women are so beautiful 😍

Iranians are stunning! :) Very beautiful people.

There is something I absolutely believe and that is: Iranian girls are beautiful 😍

1910 yes I got bullied for having unibrows and who whould've thought it was beauty standard once in Iran🙏🏽🤷🏽‍♀️

Iranians are so beautiful....the model here was looking pretty with each style...love from India

i dont know why but in her eyes is like a constant sadness

That's 2000s look was just so beautiful..

Prepare for the 2020 and every decade after that 🔥 Woman life freedom

The 1980's style was like that because of that nasty criminal devilish 1979 Islamic Revolution, which made Iran go heavily backwards.

After watching almost all of these videos, I've concluded that the 40's was just a beautiful era. From the Fashion, to the cars, and the music. Everything in the 40's just appeals to me.

Mashallah hijab looks beautiful. Prides itself as a symbol of dignity.

I love how beautiful the way the model has displayed the history of Iran. Greetings from the USA!

Middleasters are one of the most beautiful people on Earth.

She's one of the most beautiful people ive ever seen!! Wow

iranian revolution riuned everything

A lot of commenters are missing the older Iran. Not to worry, we are not far from an open and free society. Like a plant that needs water and sun to grow, a revolution also needs to be fed but unfortunately, with our young and their blood. Europe (Christianity) went through this almost 500 years ago; it is our turn now, and as the first Muslim country, it is our destiny to sacrifice in order to help ourselves and wake up the rest of the Muslim world; I recalled even fifty years ago, I always thought we are at least two Centuries ahead of the rest of the Muslim world. The God and all mighty can not be that mighty if he needs me to acknowledge him daily.
