LET THERE BE CARMEN

Gracing the cover of American Vogue in 1947 aged fifteen, she has been mesmerizing us for almost seven decades with her captivating beauty and a stamina that would shame models a quarter her age.

Today, at 82, this formidable veteran with knife-edge cheekbones and a signature cloud of white hair has transcended age to become the embodiment of timeless allure.

An inspiration to generations of women the world over, she has been muse to art’s and photography’s giants: Penn, Horst and Avedon — daunting names to anyone in the business, but to her simply ‘buddies’.

You magazine and MoDa’s Touch celebrate the legendary Carmen Dell’Orefice.
