Margot... really was one of a kind. This is back during her prime. And the thing about the noble-lady Dame Fonteyn is that she wasn't born with all the advantages. She was not blessed with the physical attributes a girl in her profession needs for a career in ballet--a highly prominent face, long willowy limbs, a high arch and instep. She was not a great beauty. She did not have natural physical grace. She was not naturally athletic. And yet... she was still dubbed "Prima Ballerina Absolutta."
