In fiction, women from Eastern Europe (as well as Central and Southeastern Europe) tend to be sultry Femme Fatales, Pole dancers, or both. In older works, the French were fascinated with Polish culture, due to being both Catholic countries, and the Poles making France a haven following the dissolution of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Those with an Orientalist bend drew their attention to the royal harems of the Ottoman palaces, and might have or have not known that the Sultans favored concubines of Balkan, Russian, or Ukrainian origin, mixed alongside Greeks and women from the Caucasus. The most prominent concubine was Hurrem Sultan, hailing from what is now Ukraine, who started as a harem slave and ending as the most favored wife of Suleiman the Magnificent. Later in the Belle Epoque era, came the Dainty Little Ballet Dancers of the Ballets Russes, whose amazing dancing skills captivated audiences, and whose influence is deeply felt in the world of classical music. The Femme Fatale version arose in the UK during the Cold War. Tales abounded of the glamorous, alluring Russian woman who would throw herself at a visiting British businessman, seducing him into wild, unrestrained sex acts. Later, after he'd returned home to his family, the businessman would learn that the tryst had been filmed and that pictures would go to his wife and to the government if he didn't comply with whatever demands the blackmailers made—and that the sexy vixen he'd bedded was a full colonel in the KGB. In comparison, in North America during the Cold War this trope practically did not exist (unless the woman was going to do a High-Heel–Face Turn). Russian women were considered to be the ugliest humans in existence—"deformed monsters" wouldn't be putting it too strongly. Ryan Stiles's comment ("Russia! Our women look like men!") might be understating the point. Johnny Carson wasn't the only comedian to base entire comedy sets on the purported hideousness of all Russian women, but he was the most famous—and hundreds of comedians copied him. A more common stereotype nowadays is that the entire region consists of Ugly Guys and their Hot Wives...see Husky Russkie. More recent North American and Western European stereotypes about Eastern European women tend to a different kind of Fan Disservice - if one appears she will almost always be depicted as a downtrodden Mail-Order Bride, or an even more pathetic Sex Slave who is hideously abused, and often tortured and murdered, by Human Trafficking Ruthless Foreign Gangsters. Contrast Ugly Slavic Women (its now-forgotten opposite) as well as Brawn Hilda (with which Ugly Slavic Women often overlapped). See also The Baroness (a specific Character Archetype), Circassian Beauty, Europeans Are Kinky, Gorgeous Greek, Hot Gypsy Woman and Sexy Scandinavian. Gentile Jew-Chaser can also overlap if the Sensual Slav being sought after is of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry. If she's a ballerina or an Olympic gymnast (both of which are fields that Russia and other Eastern European countries tend to dominate), there may be overlap with Flexibility Equals Sex Ability. Note that the personality and function of the character in the story matters. A Slavic character that is good-looking does not automatically count; a Slavic character that uses her sex appeal to seduce, manipulate, distract or beguile a main character does count. A Slavic character doing this in a Slavic work filled with Slavs definitely doesn't. If you were looking for sensual slaves, see Go-Go Enslavement. |

Rusev's manager Lana is billed from Russia (actually American-born with Portuguese and Venezuelan heritage, but lived for most of her childhood in Latvia). Though she plays with it, in the fact that she's not exceptionally sexual (apart from simply being a very attractive woman in a revealing business suit.) She actually fits much closer in personality to The Baroness, as she does seem to enjoy watching Rusev (her real-life husband, by the way) hurt people. | |

Red Sparrow is based on a program featuring glamorous Russian spies seducing westerners. When asked, author Jason Matthews said the CIA tried it, but Eastern Europeans didn't care about partners having sex with seductive foreigners; it was considered a perk of the job. | |

She's supposed to do anything for Homer. Anything except sex. "The Fabulous Faker Boy": Bart falls in love with a young Russian woman Zhenya, his piano teacher. She speaks with a strong accent which makes her more interesting and adds an exotic touch to her beauty. In his Imagine Spot, Bart sees Zhenya as a seductive chanteuse who is Sitting Sexy on a Piano dressed in a tight-fitting red dress. |

He's first introduced doing a very sensual song called "Lion Of Love" with several skimpy backup dancers, and he's a romantic rival for Lars Erickssong, along with his Gorgeous Greek friend Mita Xemakis. Ultimately, he doesn't seduce Sigrit, though, and we find out that he's actually Armored Closet Gay. | |

Linka from Captain Planet and the Planeteers is quite attractive, but she's more into using her wits and powers rather than her beauty to control a situation. Her on-and-off flirting with Wheeler is portrayed as genuine attraction filtered through her Tsundere attitude. One Played for Drama exception occurs in "Mind Pollution" when Skumm forcibly hooks her on a new designer drug, Bliss. Under the influence of addiction, Linka plays on her teammate's attraction to her in an unsuccessful attempt to convince him to try the drug. | |

They blackmail Daniel into making Petra the cover model of the next issue, or they go to the police and the media. It turns out Petra is actually 20 and Daniel doesn't have to risk prison. | |

Irina in Gorky Park.

For many years, a staple of the James Bond movies: Tatiana Romanova in From Russia with Love. Major Anya Amasova in The Spy Who Loved Me. Pola Ivanova in A View to a Kill. Kara Milovy in The Living Daylights. Kara is a Czechoslovakian cellist, and Bond's love interest. Rosika Miklos in The Living Daylights is a Big Beautiful Woman who decides to Show Some Leg to cover Koskov's defection. A bit different from the usual Slavic Bond girl in that she is bigger, and she does not seduce 007. note Her name indicates she might be of Hungarian ethnicity (there is a large Hungarian minority in Slovakia), in that case she is not actually Slavic. GoldenEye is has two: Xenia Onatopp (played by Famke Janssen, who is actually Dutch) and Natalya Simonova (played by Polish actress Izabella Scorupco). A very blonde (in contrast to her Red Alert 3 look, pictured above) Ivana Miličević played Valenka, Le Chiffre's girlfriend in Casino Royale (2006). |

Marvel Universe: Black Widow: The Black Widow is a Russian Femme Fatale. Certain writers really play up the Russian-ness in combination with sensuality and take it to some really stereotypical and creepy places. Silver Sable is a silver-haired mercenary/secret agent for the fictitious Eastern European country of Symkaria. In her earlier days she would be doing the Pretty in Mink variety of fanservice but in more contemporary times she's mostly about a silver Spy Catsuit. X-Men: In contrast to her brother Colossus, who's a Husky Russkie, Magik has become a tall, svelte, dangerous-looking blonde in a midriff-baring black outfit. |

Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, so very much. Like her comicbook counterpart she's Russian, though you wouldn't be able to tell by her accent (or her being played by Scarlett Johansson). As a S.H.I.E.L.D. operative, she's also trained to use her sex appeal to seduce targets if the mission calls for it — though usually, she prefers using her fists. | |

Late chapters of Crying Freeman (both manga and anime) have Russian mobsters provide an enemy of Freeman's with a female assassin named Kyutche. While described as "an Eskimo" (according to the manga's English translation), the artists of both media give her Caucasian features and the anime also makes her an albino. | |

Tatenashi Sarashiki of Infinite Stratos. She's one of the most attractive girls in the IS Academy and also the strongest IS pilot, warranting her the position of Student Council President. She is also a tease-happy Shameless Fanservice Girl towards the primary male character. Though she's actually a half-Russian, half-Japanese. | |

Command & Conquer: Red Alert Series Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 saw Lieutenant Zofia (Soviet counterpart to Lieutenant Eva): "Vinter in Moscow iz cold... but purrrhaps zis vinter vill be... different?". Though her actress was actually Polish. "Zofia" is the Polish variation of "Sophia", so what if she is actually Polish ? Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 and its Uprising expansion give us Lieutenant Dasha Fedorovich (pictured above), played by Bosnian-born Ivana Milicevic. There are a number of other sexualized Soviet soldiers as well such as black ops agent Natasha Volkova (Gina Carano) and air force general Zhana Agonskaya. |

America (The Book)'s section on Russia notes the Russian Paradox that young Russian women are beautiful while old Russian women are hideous. A picture comparison purports to show a young beauty queen before and after she crosses the threshold, becoming an old crone in the span of two weeks. | |

The crowd-funded dating sim Summertime Saga has a main plot involving The Mafiya and Russian prostitutes, so this was bound to show up. Nadya is a Femme Fatale Mafia Princess and one of the MC's possible sexual partners, wanting him to become her baby daddy. After she takes over from her father, she's also indicated to be sleeping with half her (female) staff. Later on, MC can have sex with those same staff members, including her Amazonian Beauty bodyguard Svetlana and her assistants Katya and Khadne (who is technically Khakas and not Slavic, but she does speak Russian). | |

A good chunk of the Hikari No Densetsu characters are Bulgarian and the anime even takes place there, and they're all very pretty. The most prominent of these is Hikari's idol and "queen", the Real Life gymnast Diliana Georgieva, and Maria, Elena and Nikolina are also good looking women who happen to be skilled Olympians. | |

The mature Northern Union ship girls from Azur Lane, are fairly buxom, and play up their "Russianess" (being modeled like The Baroness and drunkenly loving Vodka) for fanservice. Chapayev is the most straightforward example and fully plays the Sexpot-type Baroness by virtue of being the Union's resident Shameless Fanservice Girl. The ships Murmansk and Talinn are almost subversions however. Murmansk is really the Eagles Union American ship Milwaukee, and while a number of Americans are Slavic, Murmansk is trying to invoke this trope to fit in such as speaking Russian and taking to Vodka. Talinn meanwhile is the German Ironblood ship Lutzow that was given to the Soviet Northern Parliament, making her fall under the ethnic German Russians category. Ironically Talinn's flowing white hair fits how Sensual Slavs are portrayed in anime anyway, despite her hesitance to assimilate into Slavic culture. | |

Parodied and subverted with Ukraine and Belarus in Hetalia: Axis Powers. Ukraine is voluptuous with huge breasts and is implied to have no problems showing them off to get her way, and when Italy goes around "testing" chests her response is to suggestively tell him she won't mind if he "takes responsibility." But this is hilariously dissonant with the rest of her personality; a super kind, sensitive, motherly humble farm lady who would be assumed to be The Ingenue. Meanwhile, Ukraine's sister Belarus is a very beautiful young woman, with a cold disposition, violent tendencies, and lots of sexual knowledge...who only has eyes on her older brother and would rather use knives to get her way than her beauty, and she's extremely blunt, foul-mouthed and actually quite childish. Poland could count as a parody as well; he's a part-time cross-dresser. | |

A rare male example in cyberpunk thriller, Behind Blue Eyes, where Jake is a handsome Eastern European man who is also working as a Honey Pot to seduce cyborg assassin Nephilim. The fact he comes from a Used Future versus her shiny dystopia as well as his hunky blonde features attracts her. No accent, though. | |

Zhanna, the Heavy Weapons Guy's younger sister in the Team Fortress 2 webcomics. Big Beautiful Woman? Check. Girlish Pigtails? Check. Hasn't seen a man in years due to her overprotective big brother trying to hide her, her mother, and other sisters from the KGB, who's agents they've been secretly torturing as revenge for putting them in a gulag? Check. She tries seducing Scout, who eventually turns down losing his virginity for a chance with Miss Pauling, so she tries her luck with Soldier, who is walking around the house naked, double-fisting bear legs: They later become an Official Couple later on, and somehow are always Crazy-Prepared, with over a thousand contingency plans up their sleeves. Soldier in particular manages to convince her to fight robots naked and covered in honey. |

Lilya 4-ever is a wildly depressing film about a bullied Russian teenage girl who is conned and forced into prostitution in Sweden, until she commits suicide. Can be viewed as a deconstruction of the trope. The film was based on a real story, although the young prostitute who killed herself was a Lithuanian in real life (and thus not a Sensual Slav, technically.) | |

A bit different from the usual Slavic Bond girl in that she is bigger, and she does not seduce 007. note Her name indicates she might be of Hungarian ethnicity (there is a large Hungarian minority in Slovakia), in that case she is not actually Slavic. | |

A blond Statuesque Stunner with model good looks that is often posing with her Siberian tiger and in some artwork she's in a miniskirt and carrying a Whip of Dominance to make her look like The Baroness. It's telling that Olga is the thumbnail for the iOS version of Scythe. In a game with several other female characters, including fellow Eastern European - Anna of the Polanian Republic, Olga's the only one whose artwork plays up her looks. | |
