This elegant lady was strolling alongside Central Park when we stopped her for a photo. Not only does her outfit look chic, but her silver hair is perfectly coiffed as well. It makes me think of these words that Mimi Weddell repeated to me, ” My mother always told me, Mimi your hair is your crowning glory.”
So it seems that the woman I shot under the posting entitled “Goth is The New Grey” happens to be featured in New York Magazine’s 50 most beautiful New Yorker’s, alongside Mimi Weddell! Here are a few articles that mention her and some of New York’s other stylish women over 50.

I noticed this video while perusing YouTube, and it made me think about two of my favorite older models.
Carmen Dell’Orefice is 76 has been modeling for over 60 years. She appeared on her first Vogue cover at the age of 15 and has been modeling since she was 12 years old. Here are some examples of her developing beauty.
…and in a more recent ad:
Mimi Weddell, 93,who I just had the pleasure of meeting with, has already been featured below for her wonderful film Hats Off.
Both of these women are perfect examples of advancing style and grace. They are inspirational.
This a photo of a woman named Mimi Weddell from the website for her movie Hats Off. I was very fortunate to meet and talk with her at the premiere of her film, which documents a decade of her life as a hard-working free spirit with style to inspire all. I highly recommend paying a visit to her site and checking out some of the clips posted.
