Harry believes Bella to have been beautiful. OotP, start of Chapter 25: "Like Sirius, she retained vestiges of great good looks, but something-perhaps Azkaban-had taken most of her beauty". So I think it is safe to assume that Cissy is in fact also good looking.<<<
Merylanna:
Thanks. I was thinking of a description of Bella's eyes and jaw (maybe hooded eyes) that had me picturing somebody a little on the gargoylish side. But obviously that's just the picture the words JKR chose to describe her in that one spot put in my mind, and it's wrong.
After seeing Jason Isaacs in CoS, and reading the description of Narcissa in Spinner's End (like a drowned person) - I visualize the Malfoys as as matched set -including Draco. Even though Lucius and Narcissa are married, some kind of incestuous feel on top of it, because it seems as if they do resemble each other (based on Lucius's supreme platinum blondeness in the film). Kind of an Angels and Insects vibe, without as much energy. More ennui there than even in Snape, for all the histrionics in Chapter 2.
