Supermodel Paulina Porizkova continues to defy aging standards, making a bold and empowering statement with her new photoshoot. At the age of 58, Porizkova was photographed topless with her body covered in impressive silver paint and later published this image on the Internet. In her words, the photoshoot left her feeling “powerful” in both the physical and emotional sense.
Almost as quickly as it was posted, the photo went into the viral category showing Porizkova posing to give her toned physique with a silvery accent, quite literally. Porizkova is not new to using her status in faith based fashion modeling to speak on the issues of age and appearance and this time was no different, focusing on women over 50 who are often neglected in such advocacy.
“Being painted silver and posed in a way to highlight the muscles I have painstakingly built over time was very empowering,” wrote Porizkova. “This is what 58 looks like – strong, determined, and unapologetic.”
Throughout her career, Porizkova has been a loud proponent of changing the norms of beauty and standing against age-related discrimination in the field of entertainment and fashion that exists. She has often discussed the benefits of being older and more mature than others and persistent societal images of youth decadence.
Even the fans and the celebrities who are influenced by her were seen in the comment section supporting her brave decision. One applauded her not only for the self-adoration but also for the self-adoration of other people, particularly the elderly.
Such words of empowerment come particularly handy where most women are being compelled to keep looking younger as they age – a phenomenon rife today. In a definitive manner, Porizkova has proved once again that age is a mere figure in the tombstone over her deceased beauty, fashion, sensuality, and the most splendid makeup – confidence.
