Lauren Hutton Dishes On Modeling For The Olsen Twins (PHOTO)

First Posted: 06/19/2010 5:12 am Updated: 05/25/2011 4:10 pm

Lauren Hutton was one of the most widely-recognized models in the '60s and '70s. But when she was approached by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen several years ago to pose for their fashion line The Row, she wasn't so sure how to get back in the game. She told the L.A. Times:

They were 21, and they were starting out this thing called the Row. And I saw the clothes, and they were wonderful, real simple, minimalist designs. And they asked me if I would do this look book. And I think at that time I was 63, and I thought, "That's cool." They wanted me to move around, and I said, "I don't model anymore, and it's an art. So you have to help me." Ash had a place on the beach, so we did it at her place. And both of them would dance, we had this music piping out, and I was in this studio on the beach with good light. And they would dance on the deck, and I would do what they were doing. And it was good.

Here's the photo that came of it:

Good bones, good health, restrained cosmetics, intelligent use of surgery, and a good stylist all contribute to a great photograph.

Of course, I have no idea what any of these people actually look like. Give me that photo, a double espresso, and three hours alone at my desk and I can give you a lovely fourteen year old boy with a mohawk who you'd swear was Lauren Hutton's grandson.

So right. I'm looking at her face and she's just fabulous - and she's her - all her.

A few shots up is a picture of a younger actress who's had her face injected with - stuff, leaving her looking like a soft plastic doll of herself, when her wrinkles would have been beautiful, because they would have been her, and I sort of miss the authentic beauty she would have grown in to.

I have to thank Lauren Hutton.
