The Esther de Jong, Numero Tokyo photo shoot by Matthias Vriens-McGrath proves that age ain’t nothing but a numero. Although Esther may not be the newest face in the modelling world, she is still one of the most stunning.
The spread entitled ‘Ma Vie En Pink’ is a fun and fresh pictorial, that makes great use of the models ridiculously long legs. Whether they are almost entirely covered by a pair of thigh-high cosmic boots or trumping the length of a golf club, her legs really standout.
