Raven Hair, Ivory Skin | comment |
Dark hair and pale skin as an indication that a character is beautiful. In western culture, this is a once-dead, now reviving trope, thanks to the Goth and Retro movements bringing an increased awareness of this and The '50s pin-up style regaining popularity. In addition, the vampire fad and the rising fear of skin cancer have helped with the resurgence of this trope. It has started to fade away again with the tanned and bleached look making a comeback. This is also quite popular in Eastern media, being the traditional standard of Asian beauty, and the fact that most of the population has black or very dark brown hair helps. The high contrast also makes for a striking and visually appealing appearance. Accents of pink or red, usually on the cheeks and lips, can also (eerily) heighten the appeal. If the heroine of a European fairy tale doesn't have golden hair to emphasize her innocence, she will probably have gorgeous black hair and pale skin to emphasize her beauty. Many tragic heroines in 18th-century Gothic Horror novels are described this way. Commonly a requirement for the Yamato Nadeshiko type and is also known as the Yamato Nadeshiko look. In fact, a Raven Haired, Ivory Skinned Yamato Nadeshiko is a stock character for the Harem Genre. There might be a crossover between this look and Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette, in the form of attractive goths, beautiful vampires, and other characters who manage to be both creepy and beautiful. Sometimes this look can be seen as too eerie, and emphasized as But Not Too White. May overlap with Pretty Boy if male. Somewhat contrasts with Tall, Dark, and Handsome, which is traditionally understood as a handsome dark-haired man, but often connotes more of a "healthy" complexion showing the man to be more "active" or "outgoing" than pale skin would. May overlap with Aloof Dark-Haired Girl if female. Please note that for a character to qualify for this trope, they need to fulfill two criteria: They must have black hair and fair skin. They must either be considered attractive (in-universe and/or by Word of God) or be accompanied by The Beautiful Tropes or Attraction Tropes. |

Homura of Puella Magi Madoka Magica has silky black hair and pale skin. There's a lot of impressed gasping when she first walks into the classroom, and Sayaka comments on how beautiful she is. Most of her outfits are black and white. There's in-universe symbolism behind this (she contracted while mourning Madoka's first death) but it's pretty clear the animators just wanted to accentuate her complexion. | |

X-23 is most commonly drawn with fair skin and black hair (particularly during her solo series). When Miss Sinister / Claudine Renko decides to steal her body because of its Healing Factor, she expresses satisfaction that she'll also be getting a very attractive new body as an added bonus. Later on while masquerading as a waitress to get close to an agent of Malcolm Colcord, one of the other employees at the diner comments on how hot the "new girl" is. | |

Dragon Age: From Dragon Age: Origins, Morrigan, who is Lampshaded to be a Hot Witch, crosses this with Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette, with the party expecting her to use her looks to seduce a male Grey Warden. She certainly tries, if she grows to like him enough, but it's up to the player whether she succeeds. In Dragon Age II, the default appearance of Hawke's younger sister Bethany gives her pale skin, black hair, and warm brown eyes. (While Bethany's skin tone will change to match that which the player assigns to Hawke, her hair will always be black.) She's acknowledged in-universe to be a considerable beauty, with a few of the male party members commenting on her attractiveness. |

Bleach: In-universe, Unohana appears to be and is viewed as the perfect example of the Yamato Nadeshiko. She has raven black hair that is always neatly bound, pale, flawless skin and carries herself with quiet grace and dignity. Word of God has confirmed she is Soul Society's most beautiful woman. When she lets down her hair to unleash her inner Ax-Crazy Blood Knight personality she transforms into an Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette instead. Word of God indicated she was deliberately designed to display a shocking contrast between the two faces of her personality. Byakuya Kuchiki is one of the highest ranked noblemen in the story and has the classic looks to go with it: perfectly groomed raven black hair and pale, flawless skin. The Shinigami Women's Institute regularly voted him as the Mr. Fanservice of Soul Society. Yumichika Ayasegawa, with his pale skin and raven hair, is well-known, notorious even, for both his beauty and his obsession with beauty. Although he is genuinely one of the best looking and most fashionable male shinigami in Soul Society, his biggest fan is actually... himself. Mizuiro Kojima is small, dark-haired and pale-skinned. He's considered to have the face of an angel and is viewed by women as incredibly cute. In fact, he's a Chick Magnet. He deliberately exploits this to get older women to fall for him and look after him so that he doesn't have to look after himself. |

Black Jack: One episode features a strong example of this — Souno, a young girl from an old and rather traditional Japanese family who has been kept indoors all her life due to suffering from a debilitating disease that will cause her life to drastically shorten if she's exposed to sunlight (as well as killing her off before she turns 18 even if she avoids it). She's spent most of her life in a sealed room, practicing Ikebana (the Japanese art of flower arrangement) under the close watch of her well-intentioned but very severe father; thus, Souno is perfectly pale, with perfectly black hair and a perfectly exquisite face... a beauty in a bottle.note The "Nadesico" part of Yamato Nadeshiko refers to a particular type of flower — probably a deliberate parallel. Fortunately, Doctor Black Jack is there to help — along with his lively assistant Pinoco, who strikes a really cute Intergenerational Friendship (sorta) with Souno and gives her the courage to get the treatment she needs. | |

In the Miraculous Ladybug fic To Be Your Light, Chat Noir waxes poetic about his Love Interest's pale skin and shiny black hair. This corresponds with canon, in which she is a half-Chinese girl who many boys are interested in...although her clumsiness and impulsive personality means she isn't usually as elegant as most examples of the trope. | |

Vikings: Princess Judith of Northumbria is acknowledged as very beautiful. Her black hair brings out the paleness of her skin, while her beauty draws both Athelstan and Ecbert to try to get into her bed. Princess/Queen Kwenthrith of Mercia is a beautiful dark-haired and fair-skinned young woman who is also very demonic and crosses into Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette. Years of abuse have turned her into a crazy, murderous woman. Princess Gisla of France, Emperor Charles' daughter, is a refined dark-haired beauty with fair complexion. She's admired for her beauty and spirit. Therese is a Frankish noblewoman at Emperor Charles' court. She is a gorgeous brunette with fair skin. |

Shin Megami Tensei V has two. Nuwa's humanoid form gives her pale skin and dark hair held up by what looks like a crown, and wears a dress that doesn't leave much to the imagination, especially her legs. There's also Sophianote Wrong Sophia . If you look closely beneath her cowl, you'll see that she has dark hair to compliment her porcelain skin, not to mention her Sensual Spandex. |

Attack on Titan: Mikasa Ackerman is half-Asian among a Germanic population, and as a result, her black hair and fair complexion are quite striking. The first time Jean sees her, he's momentarily struck speechless by her beauty and can barely manage to ramble awkwardly about how pretty her black hair is. | |

The Dresden Files: All members of the White Court of vampires (who are basically Succubi and Incubi by another name) are black-haired and pale-skinned, which they use to its greatest vampish potential whenever possible. Partly because of their natural beauty and partly because of their inhuman charm, they turn heads wherever they go. Being vampires, they can also cross into the eerie variant with ease. | |

The White Queen: Richard, Duke of Gloucester is a male version with dark, curly hair and a very fair complexion. When combined with large, soulful green eyes and lips with a prominent cupid's bow, his more graceful appearance identify him visually as the Noble Male in his Noble Male, Roguish Male dynamic with his lewd, conventionally handsome brother King Edward IV. Through Female Gaze, the showrunners also present Richard as an alluring figure in the eyes of his wife Anne Neville and later his niece Elizabeth of York, and with Elizabeth specifically, his solemn beauty conveys that he's the Brooding Boy in their Brooding Boy, Gentle Girl pairing. Because Richard is an introvert, the striking juxtaposition of his dusky mane and light skin tone facilitate the reading of his nuanced facial expressions, and he's frequently subjected to photogenic close-ups to compensate for having less dialogue than the three female leads and his two brothers. | |

This coloring is a must-have for any live-action re-telling of "Snow White": The heroine of Snow White: A Tale of Terror. Monica Keena, a natural blonde, dyed her hair black for the film. Visually, the beautiful princess Lilliana fits the trope perfectly as she's pale-skinned and black-haired. In contrast, her stepmother is a woman with lightly-colored hair. Snow White & the Huntsman stars dark-haired Kristen Stewart as Snow White. She's considered the fairest in the story, though some viewers considered it an Informed Attribute. Her Wicked Stepmother, Queen Ravenna, is a tall, impressive blonde beauty with an icy look. Mirror, Mirror has Lily Collins as Snow White. The Queen says this about Snow White's looks: "Her hair isn't black, it's raven. And her skin has never seen the sun, so of course it's good." |

Summers at Castle Auburn: Elisandra has this black and white coloring as dark hair and pale skin in a trait that runs in the Halsing family) It's combined with her mother's delicate features, and she is a celebrated court beauty. Corie is Elisandra's sister and also has fair skin and dark hair. She is rougher around the edges, but she also cleans up well and has many suitors when she is old enough for the marriage market. For inhuman characters, the aliora queen Rowena is so pale as to be almost white of skin with black hair. Other aliora regard her as being the epitome of their race in beauty. |

In The Irregular at Magic High School, Miyuki Shiba's appearance is radically close to this ideal with raven hair and pale skin, that sometimes her own brother doubts that they are blood relatives. And even having received proof of their kinship and not seeing her as a woman, he will have to agree that her beauty is divine. This gets its explanation later, when it turns out that she was genetically modified to make her an ideal magician, and accordingly perfectly beautiful externally. | |

Persona 5: According to the character designer, the light-skinned, raven-haired protagonist was designed to look "sexy and polished". If his nine potential love interests and slew of fangirls are any indication, it worked. Confidant Hifumi Togo from the same game takes a lot of cues from Yukiko appearance-wise and is as famous for her beauty as she is for her shogi skills In-Universe. |

This is the standard of beauty in the series, and one that women will go to desperate lengths to achieve and maintain. Older women, most notably the shogun's mother Keisho-in, apply layer after layer of white makeup to their faces and/or dye their hair black to try to maintain a youthful look. | |

A Brother's Price: The entire book has gender-flipped romance tropes, so men are in the position of women from other works. This look is a feature of the Whistlers. The entire Whistler family have black hair and pale skin, and they are considered to be attractive. Concrete examples: Their beauty is owed to their ancestor Grandpa Alannon, who was a black-haired, pale-skinned prince and strikingly handsome. Jerin Whistler has clear, pale skin, blue eyes, and long black hair, and is regarded as beautiful. |

For an Asgardian male, he possesses an androgynous personality, so conveniently, he's beautiful in a feminine way. Hela is very beautiful and gothic looking with pale skin and glossy raven black hair, rather fittingly, considering she's the Goddess of Death. In fact, she looks so similar to Loki (as well as the aforementioned pale skin and black hair, they also share Icy Blue Eyes and skyscraper cheekbones) that it's become popular in the MCU fandom to joke about how blonde and tanned Thor is clearly the adopted Odinsibling rather than Loki. |

She has no shortage of suitors, from her main love interest and eventual husband John Crichton to Crais (though he leans more towards Abhorrent Admirer), former lovers from her time as a Peacekeeper, and even members of the nobility of a Sebacean empire powerful enough that even the Peacekeepers accepted their neutrality and independence after they broke away centuries ago. This extends to actress Claudia Black, as well. | |

In the films, they changed it to dark brown, but she still fits the trope.

White as Snow: Both Coira and Arpazia in this "Snow White" retelling alternate between this and Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette depending on how creepy they are at the moment. The mother's flares of temper and the daughter's talent for complete stillness and silence frighten people to the point that their beauty almost isn't worth it. Arpazia is black-haired and pale and acknowledged to be very beautiful — before she somehow becomes a thirty-year-old crone. Coira takes after her mother in appearance (black hair, white skin) and becomes beautiful as she turns eighteen and comes into her own. |

Her fair complexion adds to her famous beauty. Her daughter Lissar greatly resembles her as she grows older, both with her dark hair and her pale skin. That resemblance is unfortunately her undoing when her father decides to marry her. |

Persona: Jun Kurosu from Persona 2 is a male example of this trope. He's dark-haired, pale-skinned, and beautiful — moreso than most women. In Persona 4, Yukiko Amagi is fair with long black hair and the good looks to afford her an Unwanted Harem of admirers. Hell, her name is even read as snow in the original kanji. Persona 5: According to the character designer, the light-skinned, raven-haired protagonist was designed to look "sexy and polished". If his nine potential love interests and slew of fangirls are any indication, it worked. Confidant Hifumi Togo from the same game takes a lot of cues from Yukiko appearance-wise and is as famous for her beauty as she is for her shogi skills In-Universe. |

Six-Gun Snow White: Meaningfully played with. Being a retelling of the classic fairy tale, pale-skinned, dark-haired beauty is held up as the ideal. Mr. H wishes for a daughter with black hair and red lips, like his Crow wife Gun That Sings, but he also wants her to be white-skinned, like himself. Snow White comes out copper-skinned like her mother. She is still so beautiful that strange men nearly fall in love with her on sight, but her lack of white skin is a constant refrain through the story and it causes her endless grief. | |

He would be likely to be a very popular boy were not for his lethargic personality to the point of being carried everywhere by his Heterosexual Life-Partner Oota. | |

Lyanna's niece Arya Stark is starting to fit the standard of beautiful dark-haired, pale-skinned lady as she grows into her looks. When she was a child, people would notice that she looked like her beautiful aunt — minus the beauty. |

Fairest: Zig-zagged in this Snow White adaptation. The protagonist, Aza, is so pale that, at least in her opinion, her dark hair just looks wrong (in addition to other features, like being unusually tall and broad, that make her not conventionally attractive). She and others come to see her as this after she drinks a beauty potion, but then after the effects of the beauty potion wear off, her love interest, Prince Ijori, tells her that he finds her more beautiful that way than he did when she was under the influence of the potion, suggesting she was Beautiful All Along and thereby playing the trope straight. | |

Final Fantasy has quite a few females who fit this trope. Tifa Lockhart from Final Fantasy VII is dark haired and has very pale skin, likely to show her status as a Yamato Nadeshiko. She was also very popular with the guys, Cloud included, in Nibelheim. Final Fantasy VIII: Rinoa Heartilly is light-skinned and dark-haired. Although her character designer intended her to be "cute" rather than gorgeous, it's obvious this aspect of her appearance is meant to amp up her looks. Garnet "Dagger" Til Alexandros XVII of Final Fantasy IX. She has light skin and black hair and is stated to be a refined and beautiful princess. |

Tolkien's Legendarium: Frequently mixes Author Appeal (Tolkien's wife Edith was a fair-skinned brunette) and, presumably, Celtic notions of beauty; although the ancient Celts are often flanderized as Fiery Redheads, they were mostly dark-haired and regarded this as the ideal — thus many of Tolkien's most important and beautiful characters are dark-haired and pale-skinned, typically with gray eyes. Most Noldor, the High Elves of Middle-earth, look this way, and some characters stand out for their especially emphasized dark-haired-pale-skinned beauty: Lúthien in The Silmarillion is the most beautiful woman in the world, who also happens to be half-angel. Lúthien's part-human Heinz Hybrid descendant Arwen in The Lord of the Rings, who's reportedly the second-most beautiful woman in the world. A male example would be Túrin Turambar, who has black hair, pale skin, and is more handsome than any other mortal man. He doesn't have elven blood, but he gets mistaken for an elf so often by elves that they call him 'Adanedhel' ("man-elf" in Sindarin). Prince Imrahil of Dol Amroth has dark hair, pale skin, and is beautiful enough that people speculate he has elven ancestry. |

Only Echoes Remain: Isa is a gorgeous goth girl despite being homeless on the streets of an alternate-universe version of Chicago. This is entirely the result of her being a mystical being created by a precocious teenage sorceress who designed her to meet or exceed her own standards of beauty. White-pale skin, very, very long night-dark hair, and a flawless face and body were her gifts to her creation, along with a true form that is effectively a demonic manifestation of darkness and death. | |

Jean-Paul is described as having long, black hair and pale skin and even the straight and not remotely interested Harry notes that the only apt adjective would be 'beautiful'. Diana, who's considered to be very pretty - and her adult self is described as jaw-dropping - has very dark black hair and pale skin. |

Part of what makes Himeko so popular in-universe in Girls Kingdom is how beautiful she is with her flawless pale skin and her long, beautiful, black hair. Another part, of course, is that she's a classic example of Spoiled Sweet. | |

The Twilight Saga: Several of the characters sport this combination (naturally, considering that vampires have skin so white it literally sparkles). Alice Cullen is possibly the stand-out example, having explicitly black hair and delicate white skin that underscores how dainty and adorable she is, but lead character Bella Swan also has dark hair and describes herself as pale enough to stand out even before she's transformed. | |

Hades: Both Zagreus, his father Hades and his mother Nyx have ashen-pale skin and black hair (with stars in them in Nyx's case). Zagreus described as handsome in-game by several characters, though the primary purpose of the colour scheme is to distinguish the family from Zeus and his children. Nyx is not actually Zagreus' birth mother, but her sharing skin and hair colour with him to such a degree helps explain why Zagreus never had a reason to think otherwise. | |

The Sandman (1989): Death was based on a myth in which the Angel of Death appears to the deceased as a woman so beautiful their soul leaves their body in ecstasy. Death is very pale and has black hair, and nearly everyone in-universe agrees that she is the most attractive woman in the series. Desire is the personification of desire and the character is (supposed to be) the embodiment of perfect androgynous beauty. Although it can change appearances as it wishes, we usually see Desire as an attractive androgynous person with dark hair and pale skin. |

The Legend of Korra: Asami Sato has dark hair and pale skin (like most people of the Fire Nation). She's also stunningly beautiful, causing Mako to fall for her hard the first time he sees her. And then, in the end, she ends up with Korra. Mako has classic Fire Nation coloring (dark-haired and pale-skinned), and multiple characters in the series find him very attractive in the Pretty Boy way. |

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe: When the Pevensie children are grown, Susan is acclaimed throughout Narnia and its neighboring kingdoms as being exceptionally beautiful, possibly the World's Most Beautiful Woman, with fair skin and thick black hair that falls nearly to her feet. The White Witch Jadis is said to be very beautiful in a cruel, imposing way. Her skin is paper-white after eating the Fruit of Life, and she has very red lips. Although her hair color is not mentioned in the text, illustrator Pauline Baynes depicts her as having sleek black hair (though many visual interpretations give her white or blonde hair to suit her Ice Queen persona). |

The Lord of the Rings: Arwen, who is considered to be the most beautiful woman alive, has dark hair and pale skin (as in the book). Frodo is a male version of this trope, as he is a Pretty Boy with pale skin and dark hair as far as the film adaptations are concerned. In the books, hobbits are more pleasant-looking than beautiful. Then again, Frodo is explicitly described as fairly good-looking for a hobbit. |

Sailor Moon: Rei Hino/Sailor Mars has pale skin and dark hair and is often referred to as the most remarkable-looking Sailor Senshi. The most beautiful villainess in-story is Nehellenia, who is very pale, has very long black hair and is obsessed with her beauty. Hotaru/Sailor Saturn has black hair and a skin tone described as "alabaster". Her first appearance in the manga basically launched Chibi-Usa headfirst into puberty. And that was before she smiled. Furthermore, the first adjective Chibi-Usa ever applies to Hotaru is "beautiful". Usagi and Mamoru agree. |

Downton Abbey: The Downton matriarch, Cora Crawley, Countess of Grantham (played by Elizabeth McGovern) has dark hair and delicate pale skin. Even in her 50s and 60s, she is still very attractive, and (in Series 5) commented that she was considered a beauty in her youth. Two of Lady Grantham's daughters (the ones usually regarded as prettiest) take after her: Her eldest, Lady Mary Crawley, is a Proud Beauty with fair skin and beautiful long black hair. Her youngest, Lady Sybil, is a Spirited Young Lady but just as fair and raven-haired, and usually considered even prettier than her sister. Jane Moorsum, the maid, is a brunette with pale skin and piercing blue eyes. Lord Grantham (possibly responding to the similarity to his wife) likes her looks and personality so much that he starts an (ultimately unconsummated) affair with her. |

Star Trek: The Next Generation: Deanna Troi has masses of dark curls and fair skin. She is very beautiful, a former girlfriend of Commander Riker and many aliens fall for her during the run of the series. In the earlier seasons, she wears lots of revealing or tight-fitting outfits. | |
