#15: Elizabeth Taylor (February 27, 1932 – March 23, 2011)
Elizabeth Taylor’s violet eyes could outshine the spotlight itself and everyone else in the room. She made the jump from adorable child star to bona fide Hollywood legend with a flair that left audiences (and her many husbands) breathless. With two Academy Awards on her mantel and roles in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and Cleopatra, Taylor reigned supreme both on and off the screen. Likewise, her well-known obsession with jewelry and high fashion made her the darling of designers everywhere.
