Nurith NupurLauren Hutton
Perhaps one of the most iconic models in the history of modeling, Lauren Hutton’s career is unrivaled. her career has been a series of highs and lows, before finally being heralded as perhaps the most illustrious model in the industry. The former Playboy Bunny initially had a hard time landing jobs due to her now most distinguishable feature – her gap teeth. She was often advised by agents to conceal it, before finally deciding to embrace her ‘imperfection.’ It turned out to be her defining feature which made her a distinguished model in the field. The 74-year-old often talks on the topic of age, and how older women are usually repressed in Hollywood. She stated: “I want them [women] not to be ashamed of who they are when they’re in bed. Society has told us to be ashamed … The really important [thing] is that women understand not to listen to a 2,000-year-old patriarchal society.” But perhaps her most important quote is, “We have to be able to grow up. Our wrinkles are our medals of the passage of life. They are what we have been through and who we want to be. I don’t think I will ever cut my face because once I cut it, I’ll never know where I’ve been.”
