The fairest?

[Gorthaur the Cruel]

Who truly was the fairest in the Tolkien universe? Was it Varda, Melian, Luthien, Arwen, Galadriel, or Morwen?

[Raynor]

Among the Children of Eru, Luthien sits at the top of the list:

Then all memory of his pain departed from him, and he fell into an enchantment; for Luthien was the most beautiful of all the Children of Iluvatar.

As for Varda, we know that:

Given the status of the valar, I would personally go with Varda.
