Elegant Carmen, the 84-year-old supermodel, explained the beautiful legendary inspirational story.

American supermodel Carmen Dell'Orefice is 84 years old. She made the catwalk for Hermè s' debut, the finale for Dior, and frequently appeared in international fashion shows. She is the oldest and longest-serving model in the world. Her life was bumpy, with three divorces and two bankruptcies, but years and life left no cruel marks on her. How did Carmen, who was born in poverty and was not optimistic at first, create the legend of "Carmen appeared and who fought at the front"?

Carmen 193 1 was born in new york, USA. My father is a little-known violinist, wandering in the distance in pursuit of the so-called "artistic dream". My mother used to be a ballet dancer, and she wanted to continue her ballet dream with Carmen, so that Carmen could take ballet lessons with what little money she had left. But because of poverty, Carmen finally had to give up.

Carmen was secretly determined to get ahead from an early age, and let her mother drink red wine and eat delicious biscuits. /kloc-at the age of 0/3, opportunity began to care for this cat-like girl. One day, Carmen came home by bus and was photographed by the photographer of Bazzar, a fashion magazine. She took a group of photos and gave them to the magazine. Her mother cried with joy and thought that the family was about to usher in the dawn. However, a few days later, the magazine replied euphemistically: "Dear madam, your daughter is indeed a polite lady. Unfortunately, she is not suitable for taking pictures! " Carmen ran to the church full of grievances. The godfather unfolded the letter paper, smiled after reading it and said kindly to her, "Son, this letter paper doesn't mean anything. I believe you. You are a unique apple planted by God. "

With the help of the godfather, Carmen met Diana Verilan, the legendary editor-in-chief of Vogue. The female editor looked Carmen up and down and said, "Honey, do you think you are beautiful?" "No one can deny my beauty!" Carmen answered affirmatively. It was this sentence that touched Diana. After unremitting efforts, Carmen became a signing model of the magazine, when she was only 14 years old. 1946, 15 years old Carmen became the youngest Vogue at that time.

Although they became professional models, life for Carmen and her mother was still very difficult. Carmen didn't have a phone at home, so Vogue sent a postman to inform Carmen to take pictures. In order to save money, 15 years old, she stepped on roller skating, bypassed shuttle cars and crowded people, and rushed to shoot advertisements for this famous magazine-just like a takeaway boy. Because of Carmen's severe malnutrition, photographers always pin the back of her clothes with tears, or stuff something into them to support them when taking pictures of her. Everyone sympathizes with the skinny little girl from the bottom of their hearts.

Gradually, Carmen can earn 60 dollars a week (equivalent to 1200 yuan now). She let her mother eat biscuits and drink red wine, and their lives gradually got rid of poverty. Not only that, she also went to a private school to secretly support her father who ran away from home. In Carmen's place, there will never be complaints about foot pain and lack of sleep. Her tenacity and good temperament are sincerely loved by partners and audiences.

Up to now, Carmen's performance reservations are still flowing. Hermes invited her to show her new products, Dior invited her to help out ... When Carmen stood with a group of young supermodels under a quarter of her age, she was as beautiful as ever. Duras famously said, "You were beautiful when you were young ... but compared with that time, I like your vicissitudes of life." Carmen Dell'Orefice, 84, is undoubtedly making a footnote for this sentence.
