Fashion is an open book. Unlike other parts of society, fashion embraces all forms of creativity from all walks of life. It has never turned down a great designer just because he or she came from a common family. Fashion welcomes everyone and everything that keeps it alive. As we progress through time, we have seen trends come and go, some being resurrected while others are buried into oblivion.
Amid all the changes and challenges in the fashion industry, there are a handful of people who have withstood every huge ripple that it produced. It requires a lot of skill to still look fabulous despite the increasing number of years in a fashionista’s life, and the people below prove that when you love fashion, it will love you back even after you’ve aged.
At the age of 54, Tilda Swinton has proven her worth as an actress and a trendsetter through numerous exposures in both the limelight and the red carpet. Leaning on styles such as androgynous, alien and minimalist, Swinton has captured the lenses of so many fashion photographers and received a plethora of approvals from a wide array of fashion critics.
Due to her deep association with art, it is not surprising that Swinton translated it into something she would wear. Some of the brands that Swinton wears are Lanvin, Jil Sander and Haider Ackermann.
Twenty years more tenured than Tilda Swinton is the legendary fashion pillar Vivienne Westwood and by the looks of it, she’s not even close to stopping her in grandeur. Known to be the former costume designer of rock band Sex Pistols, Westwood’s exposure to the fashion industry is what puts her on the pedestal that she’s in now.
Westwood’s style focus is on rebellious, surreal and Victorian-punk that can be validated through her bold orange hair, use of silhouette and blatant pieces of metallic jewelry adorning her impressive wardrobe.
Aside from being an Oscar-winning femme fatale, Diane Keaton, now aged 69, is also a woman of substance when it comes to being fashion forward. It can be remembered that in the glorious year of 1977, Keaton initiated the risky move of showing the world that some masculine garments such as bowler hats, neckties and trousers can also be worn by women.
Still clinging onto this concept, Keaton is now known to follow trends such as menswear, tastefully playful and dapper. This fashion icon also breaks barriers with the philosophy that for as long as you like what you wear, you should be confident about it.
Thanks to Peter Beard’s discovery, the world has come to know of a legendary supermodel embodied by Iman. Hailed as one of the most successful black supermodels of all time, Iman has graced hundreds of magazine covers, walked plenty of runways and has been clothed by the world’s greatest designers ever to exist. As she aged, Iman clung to styles such as glamorous, sumptuous and structured, cementing herself further as an eponymous name in the business.
Another name that we can never ever forget is that of Carine Roitfeld. Now ten years past her golden age, Roitfeld still amazes the crowd in every event she goes to because of her innate fab and pizzazz. Dubbed as the ultimate queen of a style called ‘erotic-chic’, Roitfeld can be seen at crowded functions wearing seductive frocks and sheer lace.
She’s also known to sport risky ensembles and since she’s been a former Vogue Paris Editor-in-Chief, anything that Roitfeld wears seems to be the most fashionable piece that everyone should have.
