Paulina Porizkova pulls back the curtain on the “smoke and mirrors” of the modeling world.
The 60-year-old icon shared a powerful, unedited video on Instagram that lifts the curtain on the industry’s biggest illusions: lighting and posing. Standing in a sun-filled room wearing a sheer pink lace lingerie set and a vibrant floral silk dress, Porizkova struck a classic “model pose” that at first looked like the Sports Illustrated legend.
“How do you look so gorgeous at 60?” he asked, repeating the question he often gets from fans. “Well, they’re all in good light and exposure.”
As the music changed, so did Porizkova’s attitude. He began to distort the image, stepping out of the flattering “glow” and into flatter, more honest lighting.
