If we could say that Kate Moss was the silhouette and face of the 1990-2000s, it is Twiggy (nickname that could be translated as ” twig ”) which was the one from the 60s. The one whose doll lashes helped define the aesthetics of the Swinging London has long been a standard of beauty. That is why it is perhaps all the more interesting to read the confidences Daily mail by Dame Twiggy Lawson (née Lesley Hornby), now 73.

Now 73, Twiggy says she’s “proud” of her wrinkles
On aging, the former fashion icon explains:
“I am quite proud of my wrinkles. I understand when people have little adjustments and maybe I will too, I don’t know.
But what I don’t think I ever do is inject anything that can cause weird cheeks that look like cotton balls. Well that scares me. »

“I never liked the idea of botox circulating in my body”
On the possibility of injecting botox (trade name of botulinum toxin which can be injected to paralyze a muscle against the formation of wrinkles), the twig that has become an old branch adds:
“It’s botulism, isn’t it?” [intoxication provoquée par l’ingestion de neurotoxines puissantes, soit des toxines botuliques, naturellement présentes dans certains aliments contaminés, ndlr]. I never liked the idea that [de la toxine botulique] it can circulate in my body. »
Does the truth come out of the mouth of old branches like Twiggy?
Without judging women who resort to medicine or cosmetic surgery, Twiggy confides that she prefers pilates once a week to injections, which help ease back pain. Today she feels good about herself, and she doesn’t particularly want to keep the silhouette that made her famous at twenty, since according to her it would be simply impossible:
“I’m older than before, but that’s normal at my age. »
In short, the truth can come as much from the mouths of children as from the old branches, which the patriarchal world nevertheless refuses to see grow old.
