Carmen Dell’Orefice – The 82 Year-Old Model

The story from Daily Mail:

'Being on the cover of Vogue at 15 meant nothing to me,' confesses Carmen Dell'Orefice. She doesn't mean to sound ungrateful; it was more that she was baffled by it all.

'I never really understood what it was they were looking at, what they saw in me,' she shrugs. Whatever it was, she's still very much in possession of it; Carmen has been modelling – albeit with a few brief attempts at retirement – for almost 70 years now.

At 13, she was spotted by the wife of a photographer, getting off a bus in her native New York City; the following year, she sat for Salvador DalĂ­ – who gave her a painting in addition to the $7 she officially earned for modelling for him – before going on to work with the most celebrated photographers of the 20th century, including Cecil Beaton, Norman Parkinson and Richard Avedon.

And at an age when many of her contemporaries are long forgotten or sadly deceased, she is still fronting campaigns for luxury brands such as Rolex and walking the runway for Gaultier, Galliano and Mugler.

On how she stayed thin all her life:

Dieting, or watching your figure, is not that complicated. You just have to have self-discipline, and understand what you have been given genetically. I always wanted to be smaller than I am; I'm a typical woman in that sense.

On her model image:

As a model, I didn't have an identity; I was a chameleon, a silent actress. I was an amorphous thing. I wasn't full of personality, I was full of solitude and solemnity. I wasn't a cover-girl type. I've had more covers in the past 15 years than I had in all the years before that.

… says 82 year-old Carmen.

On plastic surgery:

“I don’t think that plastic surgery can make you look young. It make you look prettier, but if you go with the mentality of being young, I think that’s where accidents can happen.”

Gwyneth Paltrow: “Allow yourself programmed treats”

Gwyneth Paltrow: Allow yourself programmed treats | gwyneth paltrow celebrity quotes

On how she schedules her indulgences:

Stay away from processed foods, though cutting them out completely is no fun and can ultimately lead to a binge. Allow yourself programmed treats – I often have a glass of red wine in the evening and smoke a cigarette on a Saturday. I love those moments because they are just the right amount of naughty. That balance keeps you vibrant. You have to live your life, after all.

… says Gwyneth.
