One of the fashion world's most timeless beauties reached her diamond year today, and we're celebrating her, of course. Iman—a Somali native who was discovered while attending university in Nairobi, Kenya at age 19—paved the way for black models to be treated equally in the industry from when she touched down in the U.S. in 1975, so there's no better time to run through her iconic beauty moments...
We've noticed that the supermodel appears, well, ageless in photos both on and off the red carpet: Editorials from the '80s look identical to ones from 2015, which speaks to good skincare, good genes and, of course, Iman's inner beauty. The star, by the way, has been dishing about turning the big 6-0 this week, opening up to Style.com about what her next steps in life may be.
"I do feel that my next step will be focused specifically on my age group," she said. "I think there is a blind way that America thinks about youth, and that needs to change. Everything happens out of your own experience. And, let me tell you, a lot is happening to me now. I can never be 20 or 30 [again] and I wouldn't want to be. I'm almost 60 and I would love to change the way people view 60."
We think you've already done that, Iman—for us, and many more to come.
