Jane Fonda, Susan Sarandon, Sigourney Weaver Cover V‘s ‘Age Issue’

Posted: 22 Nov 2010 07:00 AM PST

V magazine hits newsstands with its new “Who Cares About Age?” issue, featuring three alternate cover icons of agelessness: Jane Fonda, 72, Susan Sarandon, 64, and Sigourney Weaver, 61.

Fonda gets frisky in leopard print, Sarandon looks saucy with larger-than-life hair, and Weaver is playful in a baseball cap.

“If you’re upset with how you look at 25, life’s going to be tough,” Sarandon tells the magazine.

Fonda adds: “‘There’s fabulous things about being older. The older people get, the less scared they are. All the studies show you’re not as anxious.”

And they’re not the only non-20-somethings celebrated in the issue. The “Can’t Stop the Muses” spread features models Ines de la Fressange and Iman, stylist Camilla Nickerson, as well as artists Yoko Ono and Lucian Freud.

Other inspirations include Beyoncé’s 56-year-old mama, Tina Knowles; Gloria Vanderbilt, the 86-year-old socialite who built a design empire in the ’80s, and Eve Fletcher, the 83-year-old amateur surf star.

The women in this issue, who range in age from 31 to 86, each share personal stories about their respective industries, but all agree that the pursuit of youth is overrated.

Valentino for Gap: The Full Collection

Posted: 22 Nov 2010 06:41 AM PST

A couple months ago, Gap announced that they’d teamed up with Valentino to produce a capsule collection. The seven-piece collection, created to celebrate Gap’s arrival in Italy, hits stores this Friday, September 26.

Sadly, the pieces will only be available in select stores in Europe–at Gap’s new stores in Rome and Milan, as well as Colette in Paris and at Dover Street Market and Gap’s flagship store in London. We were doubtful as to how Valentino’s signature ruffles would translate into a collaboration for the high street retailer but for the most part, it works. The color palette is simple–army green, cream and black–so as not to upstage the ruffles adorning all the cargo looks.

There are few pieces from the capsule collection that we’re bummed won’t be available stateside. Namely, the black leather skirt (£129), the army parka with ruffles (£149.95), and the gathered skirt fixed with a big loopy bow (£69.95). The ruffle-front cargo pants, however, we’ll gladly leave to folks across the pond. And if you can figure out how to wear them without looking clownish, let us know.
