Yep, This 86-Year-Old Funeral Director Is Now a Fashion Star

Never be fooled into thinking that fashion is only for young people. From over-60 fashion bloggers to older street style stars, we never turn down an opportunity to turn the spotlight on the more mature crowd, and now, we've officially found our new style obsession thanks to Helmut Lang's new fall campaign.
"Margaret is an 86-year-old Welsh woman, and grandmother to @_charlottejames_," the brand explained on its Instagram. "She is a retired funeral director and is very proud of being from Wales, despite the weather."
Wearing an oversize blazer, trousers, and perfectly layered gold jewelry, Margaret is the definition of chic. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Helmut Lang also introduced us to two other ladies with impeccable style: 86-year-old Dilys and 66-year-old Puleng. Scroll down to see the chic women and learn their fascinating stories.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern in 2011—back when the site only published a single story per day. (We have since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC and lives in Los Angeles. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News. From the Oscars to the Met Gala, she leads the site's entire red carpet coverage strategy. She specializes in celebrity and fashion news but also enjoys writing travel features and runway reports. She frequently contributes to WWW's social accounts and has a sizable following on her personal TikTok.
