DIVERSITY IN MODELLING
When we think of models I am sure most think of young girls of 16 or 18 years old, and the more
recognizable models such a Kate, Bella, Naomi or Claudia. All are a major player in the fashion industry.
Seeing more diversity is a great thing.
Diversity is important but we don't see it much on the runways. But it is changing slowly and
there are some older models, curvy models and many others. I recently came across an article
where a woman in her 60s has started to model.The article HERE She appeared in a HM campaign wearing a swimsuit. So wow much has changed. It is wonderful woman of all ages being shown.
I can recall a woman saying , 'After a certain age women become invisible'. it was a bit of shock to hear. My thought how can that be, why?
The reason basically is the fashion industry or designers use only the youthful girls
and seldom do you see woman of certain age on runways.
But I also think women as they get older lose interest in trying something different and new.
Their looks stay the same or their taste in clothes is dated. I don't mean that women need to
dress like a 20 year old, but perhaps with more color or change of accessories to the wardrobe.
Whether 50 60 or 80, women of all ages can look wonderful.
Here are just a few ladies that look fabulous from a model to actresses.
They are stylish, glamorous and beautiful!
