So Elegant.
Beautiful!
Her lips would nicely match those of the girl on Wigmore St. in London! They should team up! both are remarkable.
what a classy lady!
love her ring and earrings. Great Photo!

She's so beautiful!
She's absolutely lovely. timeless beauty.
A great punch of colour on the lips
I only pray I could be as stylish when I am her age. So graceful.
A very elegant and sophisticated lady. I wish we'd see more of them these days.
Great!! Maravillosa!!
This woman is wearing her life on her face, beautifully. I'm not sure about the purple lipstick, but I'm in awe of her, and so glad she has her own beautiful grey hair and skin that has aged with her. I bet people listen when she speaks.
What a beautiful English face.
wow. nice
a lot of lady should inspiered by that kind of women.

Really refreshing to see 'older' stylish women featured. I'm not quite there yet, but so nice to see that style needn't diminish with age. Speaking as a former Londoner, one must never underestimate the influence that Mrs Burstein has had on the British fashion landscape.
Those lips are a special shade of magenta only she can pull off. Lovely!
www.houseofhemingway.blogspot.com
wow the purplish lipstick is just unreal on her. Older people should follow this amazing woman's example! She is a braveee one!
I sometimes wonder how I shall age... I love seeing people who have lived & are still v much full of life! Her hair, lipstick, style, are spot on: great!

I really like the fact that you have the eye to find such elegant and originals persons. I can no longer stand all the "cliché" we see in some magazines...your blog is a treasure...your pictures are art.
Like her lipstick shade and jewelry
Such an exquisite photo!!
this lady shows us that people must get older with dignity because its part of life. She hasnt resort to any surgery or botox and looks wonderfull!
beautiful and such gorgeous jewellery! :)

So, So lovely.
One of the best shots i've seen from you, it goes beyond pretty clothing it speaks on it's own and as some said that's what a well lived life looks like, hope I look half as good someday. Who would want to airbrush after seeing this woman.
What a beautiful portrait of Madame de Browns. And what a perfect example that ageing gracefully is the best.
lovely and elegant. Finally a woman who isn't afraid of showing her age!
LOVELY!
... Charm...

What an incredibly beautiful and sophisticated woman. I can only hope I look as fabulous as Joan when I'm her age!
I wish She was my Grandma!
How refreshing- no face lifts, no botox and natural hair color. She's stunning. Would love to chat with her!
The next generation will have a lot less of these genuine, natural faces with all the plastic surgery people are having these days. I'm slowly learning to embrace my crows feet and laugh lines that come as a result of lots of smiles and good times!
Toute en beauté; c'est très inspirant et ça fait beaucoup de bien de voir des femmes assumer pleinement leurs rides et le passage du temps qui donne une telle force et histoire au visage!
wow... we live in a society obsessed with youth and seeing this stunning woman is almost a shock. First, I applaud her for not getting sucked into the plastic surgery frenzy and second, kudos to you, Scott for recognizing beauty has no age and publishing this photo. I love her look except for the lip color; not flattering. Thanks!
Oh my, she's amazing. Such an inspiration.
Adoro!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lovely!!! She's a very stylish lady!

thanks for showing us what's going on in fashion in varying age groups. always, always, always keepin' it real and showcasing gorgeous style and photography in the process. I'm particularly loving this photograph and the one of the bearded man in Milan.
she must have been sexy and hot back in her days but now elegance and class is what she stands for...so pretty that it needs a frame
This is absolute beauty. The lips! The eyes! The hair! The accessories! The skin tone! Agh! Gorgeous!
fabulous....so perfect. this is who i wanna be.

what a beautiful smile.....this is " growing oldgracefully and in style "
amo ese pelo! y esa expresión pícara que has sabido captar!!
Simply gorgeous*
Wonderful face, terrific style with jewellery and pose. We think that beauty is just for the young - she proves it not.
Alleluia. THIS is what it's all about....not running after the latest "it" bag or silly shoe-of-the-week!
Thank you so much for posting photos of older people who have great style. Too many people seem to forget that if they are lucky, they too will live to be old.
Stunning!
I find pictures of mature women much more inspirating than younger ones!
Great shot (as always :D)! Can't wait to see more!
Have a great week!

Thank you for this picture, beauty is not only youth and skinny. She looks fantastic with her lines, no botox, no plastic surgery: it is so refreshing.
So elegant, so so very fabulous!!

I like the purple lippy. Because one would expect it to be red. I note many don't but I think it is great juxtapsosition. She is indeed very elegant with the French art of ageing gracefully. She looks kind, strong, beautiful and with integrity.
Lilac lipstick says everything.

who said that the wrinkle is not beautiful? this woman is beautiful
So nice to see a woman that hasn't been botoxed, lifted or lasered! She looks elegant, stylish and REAL!!
She's beautiful and her hair is fabulous. I wish grey was more celebrated than covered over, it's so elegant. A lovely photograph, thank you for showing how age has it's own beauty.
Thanks you for showing the real beauty of life. Fashion is most of the times a boring repetition.
And I am saying this as a senior fashion designer!!
We need your blog. It is vital!! Thanks again and of course, this lady is totally want I want in my future.
Thank you for including what is essentially a headshot and not a fashion shot (although her jewelry is lovely).
No idea who she is or what her story is, but from her hair & makeup, to clothes & accessories, she's fabulous.
Blessings to you for a beautiful photo of a beautiful,genuine woman.And telling the truth about age.
This is style not fashion!!!! Bravo!!!!
BEAUTY IS PRESENT AT ANY AGE, PLUS SHE'S FLYY.
My dear Lord, Have THIS woman STYLE in blood...so classy, dont know who she is ,but dear fashiongod bless her!
Halleluja!

wonderful LADY!!! great portrait!
I adore everything about this woman: the beauty of aging gracefully, the tousled hair, her jewelry. Even the color of her lipstick -- accentuates the sweet smile. No hideous facelift for her. She's lovely.
This picture hit me like a ton of bricks. We rarely see wrinkles in our day and age of chasing perfection-or at least society's view of perfection: the flawless, wrinkle-free woman.
It has always amazed me how men could age gracefully, with their salt and pepper hair, each strand representing a trial or tribulation in their lives, but the aging woman is seen as losing her luster.
The woman in this picture proves that youthfulness lies in a person's outlook, in their spirit, not in their exterior appearance. That sparkle in her eyes and her cheeky lipstick can outshine a woman with a perfect facelift any day of the week.
As a young twenty year old, I would like to thank you Scott for taking this picture and showing everyone that wrinkles are beautiful :)
Yes!!! This woman is a classic beauty! Her ring is just sublime! Also, she should be an example to women all over who are thinking about botox/plastic surgery and plastic style! Bravo.
I hope to have all her wrinkles, grays, smile and style when im her age!
This woman is amazing. Her jewelry is a thing of beauty, her eyes are amazing and her hair cut is spot on. I love her!!!
www.greeneggsandglam.blogspot.com
I hope I look this good when I'm her age. She has a wonderful aura about her.
Thank you a million times over!
Amazing smile and amazing style.
Very beautiful.
Wow...she just looks like someone I would enjoy knowing.....cool pic.
Classic style. A woman that knows how to put it together. Bringing the sparkle only to what she wants-her lips and her jewels. Thanks for being one of the few fashion sites to showcase beauty at all ages.
GREATTT!
thankyouthankyouthankyou--spectacular! I remember seeing her in the shop when it was really tiny--decades ago--she looks even better now! And, I am not her age yet but have been fearful of bright lipstick--she has inspired me.
As was once said...'a girl must always be two things: classy & fabulous.' All that and more. xo
I love how you captured the kindness and wisdom of age that seems to come from her eyes/gaze!
Thank you! I've been waiting for a beautiful older lady shot for a while now and this lady is well worth the wait. She's stunning, and her lipstick is just a delight!
I look at this blog every day and this is the first image that made me feel like I must comment. She is a vision. How do I smile like that?Gorgeous.
linda! Literally glowing.
She is beautiful. It gives hope to us all that maybe we could look like that at her age. I love the ring!

Literally glowing!
I am really cherishing these photos of older stylish people. Totally inspirational. And I love her store!
So elegant!!!
She is so beautiful. You really have an eye for true beauty that is beyond age. Something most of us seem to have forgotten...
... "and when I grow old, I shall wear purple"...
I feel like someone could write a whole story based on this picture alone. What lovely blue eyes. Simply breath taking.
we should all aspire to age so beautifully and gracefully.
http://www.style-extraordinaire.com/
This is a wonderful picture Scott! As a picture and as a beauty/style shot. I like it that you really captured a moment here, and this lady certainly got something to tell, a live that's been lived.
She looks fantastic! I just love the black or is it dark blue coat combined with that big ring and bracelet, love the color of her hair, and I even love the lipstick, cos it is SO London! :D
A wonderful woman. I wan to look like that when I get older. Age with style!
She is enjoying her life. It says so all over her style.
She's exquisite.
(And those of us who are proudly rocking the silver thank you for showcasing the grey-haired.)
Wow: style, grace, wisdom, charm, kindness.
A picture really does paint a thousand words.
Obviously she has great taste all around because the understated elegance of her earrings, ring, watch and bracelet tell me so - stunner!
fantastic!!! so great to see stylish woman of all ages!
id so much prefer silver jewellrey on her though...perfect with her salt/pepper hair & skin tone.
It is just an example of this elegancy!

Scott, I love this photo. It put a big smile on my face.
I would like to age as gracefully as this woman!
I love how this photo captures her ageless sense of style and class.
style ans elegance without age1 wow!

WUNDERSCHÖN!
I am so excited that you are profiling a very beautiful, but older woman.
I am not an older woman, but I love the idea of alternative beauty.
Skinny tall and gorgeous is just too simple.
I would love to see more shots of alternative beauty.
With your influence who knows how you can shape our idea of what is to be appreciated!
What a cool thought. I would even love LOVE to see a book about alternative beauty, or a blog....you must have some really amazing shots.
I love the contradiction.
Thanks for sharing, I read you everyday, I live in Paris and somedays I muse wether you might find me during the day... :-)
Thank you for
Love here smile!
That's the 'old woman' I would like to be!

Mrs.B is pure Allure!
I just love this photograph. She looks so incredibly beautiful. And the lipstick looks so cute on her.
The jewelery is lovely too, but above all it's her eyes that really pull you in with this picture. What a natural beauty.

Beautiful, beautiful picture. Congratulations!
Carolina
Classy & gorgeous! So inspiring!!
What a lovely and stylish lady!!
(I got that lilac lipstick by the way)
:)
fantastic!!!! she looks like someone that can teach you a thing or two about fashion and how to pull it off nicely.
Wauw! She looks a bit like my granny! I hope I will be as beautiful as this lady (if I ever reach this age!)
I realy admire you Sartorialist, I think you do an explendid job by taking all these lovely pictures of all the styles of the world!
When we see a woman showing her age with the grey hair, wrinkles- without the ridiculous face job, we see beauty as nature has intended. What a beautiful face she has. She radiates kindness, softness, and she is ever so stylish!!!! Love this photo! Thank you! I believe when we get older, our soul comes to the surface. I feel her soul looking at this picture....
wonderful! that is way i like this blog. not only fashion, but here are and people. strong personalities!
love it!!
http://spiderandsnake.blogspot.com/
I adore this photo so much that I just HAD to draw it. I hope you like it Mr Sartorialist.

Beautiful!
regal and elegant. great attitude.
wish i knew her.
I adore lovely older ladies with a strong sense of style - the dame gets it!
beautiful,
and that lipstick is perfect!
She's so beautiful. The face my gaze wants to caress. - Jean
What a lady, her lipstick and earrings are beautiful. Excellent shot!
Love the beautiful mature faces this week, they are comforting to look at, you could say comfort food for the eyes. thank you,
love her watch!!
A delightful surprise! I like the "antique" (elegant, fine-boned, classic) mixed with the modern: her interesting jewelry-the organic ring and earrings. Great photo and subject.
Mrs. B is a true icon and her Kimberly McDonald jewels are simply stunning.
Beautiful photo. This woman is such an elegant lady!

...owner of Brown's in London...a fabulous lady who has a a real been a real force on the fashion scene.
she is just gorgeous!
Isn't it nice to see someone who's aged naturally and is all the more beautiful for it? I imagine it will be a rarity in the future.
Love Mrs. B!
Shopped her store's for years, its wonderful to see that in a world full of botox faces,,, that one can age elegantly with style and class! this is truly a Beautiful Woman inside and out.
Scott, thank u for seeing that!
Bellisima!
She's stunning. I love the cheerful lilac lipstick against her bare skin. Her earrings are also amazing! I'm totally going to copy her!
Wow! I wish I'll be as elegant as that beautiful lady when I get old!
More of this Scott go find!
Elegant and gracious!!She sets the best example for those who are afraid of geting old!!!
Elle est d'une beauté absolue!! merveilleuse!quelle grace! quel port!C'est la classe, l'elegance en personne. C'est une vraie inspiration de voir une femme vieillir avec dignité et sans recours aux bistouri et c'est d'ailleurs vachement plus beau à voir!

The beauty and elegance of a woman who shows her age,her good taste and style.Bravissima!Merçi Madame.
embrace yourself. absolutely stunning.
I love her wrinkles.
oh so beautiful!
what an elegance!
This is why I will never, not in 100 million years succumb to plastic surgery...is losing all sense of expression, all the years of your life that become written on your face...is it worth looking only nominally younger and with a paralyzed face? Methinks not. She's beautiful...and you can tell she has spent most of her life smiling...just how I'd like to look at this age...
She is lovely. But its the jewelry that seals the deal. If you subtract that...you have lovely with bad lipcolor. Mental note- invest in good interesting jewelry. And wear it!
So graceful! Love this woman
You have perfectly captured the glorious beauty and style that comes with age. It is a nice balance to the trendy young people you more often feature. Out with the young and in with the "persons of a certain age".
I can only hope to look this good when I am her age.
exquisite
those eyes...
Beauté et élégance!
Style and personality never go out of fashion. Stanley
how beautiful is it to see an older woman without any sort of cosmetic surgeries? this photo literally stopped me in my tracks! gorgeous.
WHAT A DAME! WHAT A BEAUT!
I am a lover of all things black and gold, her earrings and ring are just the perfect stand out accessories, and don't get me started on her corral lips and wavy locks. I wish she was my grand-mama...
Age appropriate elegance. Such a rare find these days - however Mrs Burstein never gets it wrong!
What I love about this picture is the timelessness it portrays. She seems to have had all the jewelery for ages!
She's a stunning and beautiful woman. Victoria Saulovich
Love this picture of a grand lady.... a lesson for the over-botoxed ones out there. Sorry.
This is gorgeous... :)
Such a beauty ! I want to be like her when i will be older ! So kind in her eyes, shy and rayonnante ! Sunny Side
Wonderful jewelry!
I see Giovanna B. in this lady (my idol in a way ;)), when she grows old...so graceful and pretty, but still unique
there is something really beautiful about this shot.
gorgeous and graceful
Beautiful!
http://bamgin.blogspot.com
very rich looking - in a good way. many label-addicted fashion victims can learn a lot from this lady's style. we can only hope.
reaaly rich looking! the ring and the aerings are gorgeous... and this dark blue is wonderful! and the lipstick... oh, well, i'm not a fan of such colors, but it's definitely interesting. :)
She's 85 and a fashion retailing legend. An icon and supporter of style.
Reminds of my grandma, very stylish and elegant <3
I see that she's 85 yrs YOUNG, WOW! She's beautiful!
this is stunning. i can only pray to be that elegant when i'm her age. this is what old people are supposed to look like. i can appreciate an image of someone who has aged gracefully without giving in to the temptation of nipping, tucking and botoxing. wouldn't you rather go out like this? i know i would :)
http://indieelectronicalternative.blogspot.com
I love Browns and she is absolutely stunning.
It is so nice to see a photo like this of a woman who has aged so gracefully and naturally. I love how she is adventurous with her style. I imagine that she has some wonderful stories...
I hope she sees her beauty when she looks in the mirror. Also, great lipstick colour, and jewellery! Gorgeous!
A portrait of aristocracy. And I love her near-red eyes. She looks at us but is nevertheless far aloof
Simply... THE BEST!!!!!!!!!! pepe
My favorite photo for so many reasons! She is truly stunning and I wouldn't change a thing!
This is just way too fierce, beyond my comprehension. This woman is werking! I hope to be fierce when I get older.

I see all the wonderful comments regarding ageing gracefully, as nature intended. It takes guts and courage to walk away from chemicals and surgical instruments. Bravo to you for finding the beauty in experience and to wearing an interesting life on the face. I hope these images give everyone the strength to let life happen and live with gusto!
if only to be that beautiful when i am old.
thank you for that today.
what a lovely lipstick shade on her
more is more. she is ca$h.
