Being 42 years old never looked this good! Actress, model, and businesswoman Liz Hurley looks stunning in a yacht-set shoot to launch a series of her own swimwear designs for the High Street store Mango.
Granted that there must have been a great amount of air-brushing involved, Hurley pulls off a shoot that might scare the youngest of models.
In an accompanying interview in the Sunday Times Style magazine, Hurley confesses "I can't think of anything worse in the world than another bikini shoot - and I've got two next month. It's unbearable and I bring it all on myself. I've got nobody else to blame." She also admits, "I like a certain amount of retouching like anybody." I would want that too if I had to wear those!
Check out the recent and equally hot Cameron Diaz' black swimsuit shoot. Hello summer!
