He wears veils and dresses in many sculptures and art or depictions of him on vases

In ancient art and literature, Apollo is frequently portrayed as the ideal of the kouros: beardless, athletic youth. This representation emphasizes his beauty and grace, often aligning with qualities traditionally associated with both genders

He’s described as “pretty,” “graceful,” “beautiful,” “delicate.”

He has a gentle speaking voice and soft features.

Apollo is basically a twink-coded solar enigma with infinite potential.

The Orphic Hymns, along with other ancient texts, often describe Apollo using epithets that emphasize his youthful beauty and radiant appearance, which can be interpreted as androgynous or effeminate by modern standards.

In the Orphic Hymn to Apollo, he is referred to as:"Golden-haired" (χρυσοκόμης, chrysokómēs) "Delian king who has eyes shining light on mortals"

Statues like the Apollo Belvedere depict him with:

Graceful and delicate features

Flowing hair

A poised and elegant stance
