Daphne Selfe
Step aside Kendall Jenner and Cara Delevingne, the woman dubbed the 'world's oldest supermodel' just nailed a new deal with fashion brand, Vans and & Other Stories.
 
86-year-old Daphne Selfe shows off the collaboration between the footwear super-brand and the ethereal high street store with uncompromising grace.
 
Speaking about the collection, Daphne said: ''The & Other Stories’ collection that is featured in this story is truly relaxed and timeless with a modern twist, all in lovely colours.'
Daphne appears in the ad with 22-year-old model, Flo Dunn.
 
About her career which began back in 1949 in Baldock, Hertfordshire, Daphe told 'The Express' back in 2011:
''I still think the Fifties was the best time to be a model because the clothes were so lovely. Of course we were much more innocent. 
 
''Modelling was respectable then so my parents were very happy for me to do it and it was fabulous.
''There was no television, only the radio and we'd never heard of drugs.'''
In 2011 Daphne was still commanding £1,000 per day for her work.
