Challenging Age Norms in Fashion
At 61, supermodel Yasmin Le Bon is redefining age norms in the fashion industry.. she believes her generation has refused to conform to traditional age-related dress codes, stating , "I am wearing exactly the same things as my daughters, who are in their thirties, as well as people in their twenties."
However, Le Bon acknowledges the importance of maintaining a certain edge and style, noting, "What used to be funny - doing granny chic - is not funny anymore, because I am someone's grandmother. Now I just have to be a bit more rock and roll all the time."
George at Asda: Affordable and Wearable
Le Bon is the face of George at Asda's latest collection, which she praises for understanding that women want fashion to be joyful and wearable.. She commends the collection's earthy palette, which makes it seasonless and versatile.
The collection features pieces like the striped two-piece,which Le Bon notes could easily pass for high-end designer wear, and dresses with just the right amount of weight, making them breathable yet not see-through.
The Power of Accessories
Le Bon emphasizes the importance of accessories, especially eyewear, in transforming an outfit. she notes, "Glasses and sunglasses add this extra layer of mystique and coolness.. They can completely change the attitude of an outfit."
She encourages people to embrace accessories, stating, "Even though I have the tiniest ear lobes on the planet, I love a statement earring or a good gold hoop."
Embracing Supermarket Fashion
Le Bon encourages people to shop at supermarkets for fashion, noting the change in supermarket fashion collections. She states, "You have got studded bags, little funky moments, details that feel considered. You are not going there just for knickers and vests."
She believes fashion is not a luxury but a need to express oneself , and advises against spending too much time comparing oneself to others.
