Today has been a day of bitching and moaning about the fashion industry, on HV.
I fear my own repetitiveness.
And my Mama, (who does not, I suspect, really “get” this blog), always says “If you’ve got nothing nice to say, make like the Queen Mother. Smile and wave.”
The QM too, could be a nasty old bat, in private, I heard.
But then I remembered this…and thought, why not give the fashion world some credit, where it is due?
The editorial is old, (2008) but excellent.
And it’s from that idiotic Vogue Paris and styled by Carine Roitfeld.

One model, the 5 ages of women.
The illusion created only by make-up, hair, styling and lighting.

The model was 20 at the time. Here, she is styled to be 10.
