79-Year-Old Vanessa Redgrave Stars In Gucci Cruise 2017 Campaign

YAS.

When Alessandro Michele showed his Gucci cruise 2017 collection back in June, he told WWD it was inspired by the "beautiful chaos" of English culture.

"There’s something very punk about the idea that you can wear a skirt from your granny’s wardrobe," he told the publication.

And it looks like for the collection's campaign, Michele decided to enlist said "granny" to wear that skirt: 79-year-old acclaimed actress Vanessa Redgrave.

The Glen Luchford-photographed shoot sees the Academy Award-winning "Julia" star posing alongside a cast of models at Chatsworth House, the 16th century Derbyshire home of the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire.

Accompanying the still images is a short film where Redgrave works the camera like a pro, even fist-bumping her co-stars.

Here's hoping we see more and more age diversity in upcoming features.
