The Oldest Supermodel?

For any woman who dreads her next birthday or finding a few tell-tale locks of gray, Daphne Selfe proves that age truly is state of mind. The 80-year old grandmother of four started modeling at age 20 (third pic below), when she won a local modeling competition. Today, she still works the runway for designers like Dolce & Gabbana, Michiko Koshino and Tata-Naka, making her Britain's oldest catwalk model. Selfe also does magazine shoots, earning over $1,000 per day, and has appeared in ads for Nivea and Olay. She reentered the modeling industry 11 years ago when someone spotted Selfe at a fashion show and suggested that she might appeal to glamorous grandmothers. How fabulous! True beauty never fades.......
