At 92, Carmen is the oldest working model and she shows no signs of stopping any time soon.
As soon as you open your browser, you’re probably bombarded with annoying ads offering discounts on magic anti-ageing serums and creams promising to take off at least 10 years off your face. It seems as if there is nothing worse than getting old and we need to do anything to avoid it. Luckily, this toxic narrative is starting to shift as we see more and more people who are older in ads and even on the covers of iconic fashion magazines.
Carmen Dell’Orefice is one of them. She’s the definition of elegance and grace, so it is no wonder she is still working as a professional model. At 92, she is considered the oldest working model – what an incredible achievement! She was first discovered at just 13 when the wife of the photographer Herman Landschoff approached her. However, the first photos were deemed a flop.
“When I was 40, I was 40. I didn’t want to be 20. I’ve always done my job — to mirror the look of that respective year. That is precisely why it has always felt wonderful to stand in front of the camera.” Carmen was a muse to Salvador Dali and graced the cover of many fashion magazines until she retired after getting marriedThe second time proved to be even more successful as many fashion brands jumped at the opportunity to work with Carmen. She worked with Target, Rolex, Anna Sui, Guo Pei, Thierry Muggler and made her grand return to Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar – it was as if she had never left modeling.
At 91, Carmen braved a risqué photoshoot where she stripped naked for New You magazine. The campaign was widely celebrated online, commenters praising her confidence, revealing that she had inspired them to be more comfortable in their bodies, despite their age.
