Marjorie
Gilbert, who turned 100 in January, becoming the latest face of fashion.
According to Walesonline, the stylish senior
citizen from Aberdare , who used to be in the cardboard box-making business,
originally thought getting a telegram from the Queen would be the biggest thing
she'd receive in 2016 - but then came the invite to take part in a high profile
shoot for a new Harvey Nichols campaign.
Decked out
in Valentino glasses, a Dries Van Noten coat, The Row pants and a Victoria
Beckham top, 'Bo' as she's known - was photographed by Dazed and Confused
co-founder Phil Poynter, making her Vogue's first ever centenarian model to
pose for its pages.
And for Bo
- who never goes out with her heels and make-up on - the history-making shoot
was the culmination of a long life spent looking after her appearance.
