Lauren Hutton, the iconic model and actress who turned 80 in November, is proving that age is just a number in her latest endeavors. In a recent interview, she shared what continues to motivate her after six decades in the industry.
Hutton, known for her gap-toothed smile and effortless style, revealed that she has been working on a memoir, reflecting on her incredibly lucky life. Despite facing initial skepticism in the modeling world due to her unconventional looks, she persevered and eventually became a trailblazer in the industry.
“I do it because I think it’s useful to wave the flag for full-grown women,” Hutton said. “I looked around and saw that there were no older women in ads or on magazines. There were all these guys getting old — actors, athletes who still had value — but no women. So I keep working.”
With recent and upcoming projects including covers for top fashion magazines and campaigns for well-known brands, Hutton continues to defy expectations and push boundaries. Her determination to represent women of all ages in the fashion industry is truly inspiring.
As she continues to travel the world and make her mark, Hutton’s ambition remains undimmed by time. She serves as a shining example of resilience, hard work, and the power of staying true to oneself, regardless of age.
