Stars don't age

Decent old age of models
Catwalk stars in age are no less popular than young beautiesAnna Polyakova, "Express Newspaper" No. 42-2012

At the recent New York Fashion Week, 81-year-old fashion model Carmen Dell took to the catwalk’Offer. Her appearance again stirred up the debate about whether it is worthy to flaunt yourself at such an age and whether it's time for Grandma to have a well-deserved rest.

Carmen Dell’Oferis began her career by appearing on the cover of Vogue in 1946, when she was 15 years old. Since then, he has been working for the benefit of the fashion industry without interruption.

She does not hide that she uses the services of cosmetologists and plastic surgeons, dreaming of maintaining a "marketable" appearance as long as possible and not leaving the podium until the last. That's what many blame her for. They say, with one foot in the grave, and there – to defile on a par with the young. However, fashion brands are in no hurry to refuse her services, gladly attracting other models of the same age to photo shoots. Moreover, not all of them are professional models. Some people get into the fashion industry quite by accident, being already retired.

At 49, Cindy Joseph decided to stop fighting gray in her hair and leave everything as it is, without torturing her hair with dyes. Immediately after that, she was noticed and invited to appear for an advertisement. Among her employers are such serious brands as Olay, D&G, Bloomingdale and DKNY.

60-year-old Jackie O'Shaughnessy was seen by representatives of the American Apparel brand, which sells knitwear, by chance, during dinner in one of the New York restaurants. Having moved to the women's table, they started a conversation from afar, and then offered to become the "face" of the new collection.

Marie Helvin has no family and no children. She spends all her time and money on self-care. But he does not recognize surgical methods of rejuvenation, focusing on a healthy lifestyle, rejection of bad habits and proper nutrition. This approach gave the result: at 57, Marie was invited to appear for an Agent Provocateur underwear advertisement.

Jilly Johnson is now 58, and she still advertises Janet Rege underwear. The fact is that Jilly was the first model - the "face" of this brand, but at the age of 20. After shooting more than one beauty for 38 years, the brand owners invited Jilly Johnson again. And, it seems, they did not lose.

Daphne Self first appeared on the podium more than 60 years ago. Now she is 83, she has three children and grandchildren, but she continues to successfully act in advertising. Daphne is not at all shy about wrinkles and is fundamentally against plastic surgery.
