61-Year-Old Model Absolutely Rocks Her Swimsuit Campaign
Most of the swimsuit models we see in adverts are perceived to be young, beautiful and stunningly shaped, but as is shown in the photographs below, Yazemeenah Rossi proves it wrong.
These photographs are part of a campaign for a swimsuit collaboration between the online shop The Dreslyn and a lingerie brand named Land of Women.
This collection was aimed at turning the existing swimwear lines away from the highly sexualized imagery.
When asked about her secrets to keeping in such good shape, she said "There is no big secret. All I have ever done is eat organic food - long before it became trendy."
"I take oil and use it on my skin. I put rapeseed oil on my hair. I scrub my skin once a week with olive oil and fine sugar, and I eat an avocado a day and organic meat and fish."
The reason why she chose Rossi as their model is that, as she said in HuffPost's interview, "This is a woman who radiates health and vitality. She's confident, she's a visual artist, she takes care of herself."
When you look at her, it's hard for you to believe that this model, visual artist, and self-portrait photographer is in fact 61 years old.
"All about being a person who's well-lived and well-traveled and has intelligence and confidence, and letting that shine through."
