i do not know and i cannot speak about other europeans, but for greeks:

pale skin is indicative of sickness
tanned skin suggested (not anymore) manual labour under the sun, like working in the fields or fishing.
brown skin suggested foreign ancestry, like saracene one and its the most obvious.

all the colours ones skin could have are ok, and then the beauty factor is moved into how the colour combines with features, or if the other features like body or mind negate a not so attractive colour.
