Was Elizabeth Taylor as Glamorous and Elegant as Her Peers?

Today, actresses like Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly are held in this angelic and saint-like manner. They are viewed as graceful, soft-spoken, stylish, and dignified. Lauren Bacall kind of inherited this mantle in her later years.

Do you feel Elizabeth Taylor is on their level?

Elizabeth was down to earth.

Elizabeth was quite earthy, although she was also very glamorous. Her father was a wealthy art dealer and she was famous before as an adult she could even remember, but she wasn't as well bred or fancy as Grace Kelly or Dina Merrill.

She was glamorous but not elegant.

Taylor had always been on her own level without necessity of inclusion in any sort of ideal - didn't apply to her. Well after the fact, I wonder if people are still able to grasp the enormity of her fame as it was.
