There are few professions that place more of a premium on youth than the fashion industry, but one look at the Christy Turlington Vogue Paris December 2012-January 2013 editorial may have some reconsidering the conventional wisdom of the industry.
The Christy Turlington Vogue Paris December-January editorial was shot by accomplished photography duo, Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, who list Lady Gaga, Juicy Couture, and Louis Vuitton amongst their clients. They stylishly capture the 43-year-old Turlington in a series of luxurious outfits from high-end designers, Givenchy, Armani, and Prada, each shot buoyed by Turlington's natural beauty and confidence.
Few models have the ability (or fortune) to maintain a lasting career into their 40s, but the Christy Turlington Vogue Paris December-January editorial shows you that it can be done. Judging from the joy she exudes in each shot - after 20 years in the game, the work can seem like play, too.
The Christy Turlington Vogue Paris December 2012-January 2013 issue is on newsstands now.
