Christy Turlington -Fashion Name. @cturlington is much more than a model, a bona fide icon, and one of the world’s most beautiful and recognizable faces—though she is certainly all those things. After 50 she’s still gorgeous! 📌At time of writing, her Instagram bio reads, in order: Mother, Wife, Daughter, Sister, Advocate, and Founder of maternity advocacy nonprofit Every Mother Counts. And if you ask her, the first and last of those descriptors are the most important. 📌Considering her A-list level of recognition and fame, many are surprised to learn that Christy’s runway career was, officially, rather short; she began modeling at the ripe age of 14 and retired from the catwalk at the still-young age of 25 to go back to school, graduating from NYU with honors in the year 2000. She came out of runway retirement last year, when she closed Marc Jacobs’ Fall/Winter 2019 show at the age of 50. She felt a strong calling from a very young age to invest her energy in things much larger than her modeling career. 📌Her passion for protecting women and mothers ties directly to the personal choices she makes in her everyday life—namely, her predilection for minimalism and mindfulness when it comes to her consumption habits. #fashiongram #fashionaddict #fashionfacts #mood #moodoftheday #style #styleblogger #fashionphotography #fashionista #icon #star #fashionblog #name #styleinspiration #stylegram #christyturlington
