Gilbert, who turned 100 in January, becoming the latest face of fashion.100 year old Marjorie Gilbert, a senior citizen from Aberdare is the first 100 year old model in Vogue magazine.
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.
“I do things I think a lot of people wouldn’t at my age and I’ve always liked to keep myself looking quite decent, even if I’m not going out,”

He looked at me and said, “you are a woman you should know how to put the ...
