The Style Evolution of Christy Turlington

If you don’t know who Christy Turlington is, you may as well have been living under a rock for the last decade or two. She has some of the longest legs known to the fashion world and they are perfect for the micro-mini or a super-high slit.

Recently, Turlington (a California native) celebrated her 43rd birthday, but she doesn’t look much different than she did rocking the runway 20 years ago. Today, although she still models, she is also a well-known philanthropist and jewellery designer. Other jobs she’s done over the years include filmmaker, author, public health student and yogi. She has never called herself a model.

As she has got older, she still has what it takes to garner lots of “oohs” and “ahhs” from anyone she passes by, but she keeps it classy and age-appropriate. Sure, there is the occasional low-cut dress, but most of her hemlines are now below the knee. After all, she is a mum albeit a sexy mum at that. (She has two children with her husband, Ed Burns.)

Known for her simplicity and classic beauty, Turlington will most likely never be out of the public eye. She’s just too drop-dead gorgeous. Whether she’s out on the town and dressed to the nines sporting super-sleek hair (probably achieved with her ghd styler) or at the cinema with her kids in jeans and a T-shirt, Turlington knows how to work it; that’s for sure.
