83-Year-Old Supermodel Carmen Dell’Orefice Covers New You, Talks ”Unmarketable” Appearance and How She ”Stood Up for Age” – There’s no time like the present for breaking down barriers in the modeling industry.

From Robyn Lawley, the first plus-size model to be featured in Sports Illustrated, to Jamie Brewer, an actress with Down Syndrome who will soon walk the runway at New York Fashion Week, society’s standard of beauty is seemingly changing—with supermodel Carmen Dell’Orefice’s most recent cover serving as evidence of the industry makeover.

The 83-year-old beauty, who is known as the “world’s oldest working” supermodel, graces the cover of NEW YOU magazine, opening up about her sex life, her lengthy career and what it takes to maintain a model figure after nearly seven (!) decades in the business.

On food and eating healthy, she says, “I eat to my appetite and don’t count calories,” Dell’Orefice, who first appeared on the cover of Vogue at just 15 years old, shared. “I want to enjoy food passionately. If you don’t like watery spinach learn to braise it yourself or eat it raw. That is the creativity of living. I could have gotten into trouble with food in my lifetime because I love to eat but I was given a free pass because I metabolize food well.”
