Aging hasn’t been something the fashion industry has looked on fondly in the past but things are thankfully changing for the better. Model Mercy Brewer graced the runways of Europe in the 80s and 90s and after a long hiatus has returned to modeling in her fifties with great success. Brewer and our own editor, Evelyn Ebrey, chatted with Sonia Sly from Radio New Zealand’s My Heels Are Killing Me podcast about the changing face of fashion. They also discuss why it’s important to see lots of different women in fashion campaigns and how high profile women like the Kardashians play into all of this.
