Inès de la Fressange

In perusing photos and article about Paris Fashion Week, I came across this photo...

Inès today...


Now, I know it may not seem like a big deal, but this woman is 51 years fabulous!

Her name is Inès de la Fressange and she was a super-model and Karl Lagerfeld's muse back in the 80s until they had a falling out and she left him and (gulp) Chanel. Something about her exercising feminist ideals...oh, the horrors....

Inès in 1987...


Also in the 80s (she's a total Benjamin Button!)...


Anyhoo...now she has a family, owns several clothing boutiques in Paris and works as a consultant to Jean-Paul Gaultier. For grins, she made a pass down the runway this week at JP's haute couture show in Paris. And the only reason I'm posting this is because she looks amazing! Like - naturally amazing.

51 and fierce!
