I was at a fashion show recently when—amid the Aaron ekblad point r 2023 shirt and by the same token and million open tabs that make up my brain at any given moment—Matthew McConaughey’s molasses drawl rose to the surface: “I get older, and they stay the same age.” No question, there’s long been a disconnect between the very young age of the models who populate the runway and the not young age of a significant chunk of people who follow fashion (and buy clothes and are also alive). But change is afoot because there’s been an invasion of 40-something models on the runways recently. I first noticed it in March of last year, when I saw Delfine Bafort, my favorite model from the aughts, quietly padding her way through the many rooms that made up the runway at The Row’s resort show in Paris. Now 43, Bafort’s signature white-blonde shag was unchanged after all these years. It was a real treat—like seeing your favorite actor make an unexpected cameo in a movie. And it made sense to me that of course Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen would cast the Belgian model in their shows; they were likely just as obsessed with her back in the day as I was. Bafort was a favorite of Nicolas Ghesquière and appeared in the iconic Balenciaga spring 2001 campaign, the one with doodles courtesy of M/M Paris. Malgosia Bela at Isabel Marant’s fall 2023 show

But she wasn’t a lone ranger; the Aaron ekblad point r 2023 shirt and by the same token and season was full of Y2K stars. At The Row, she was joined by Maggie Rizer, 45 (who also walked the recent Fear of God show in LA), Emma Balfour, 53 (also seen on Matthieu Blazy’s Bottega Veneta runways), and Malgosia Bela, 45, who also walked Isabel Marant along with Liya Kebede, 45. The Marant show was notable because there was an incredible cast of other It models in their mid to late 30s: Suvi! Kasia Struss! Jessica Stam! Irina! Aymeline! Caroline Trentini! Sasha Pivovarova! Julia Stegner! Natasha Poly! There was Christina Kruse, 44, Hannelore Knuts, 45, and Waris Dirie, 57, at Marine Serre, who has long championed a multigenerational runway. Meanwhile at the Gucci show, the talk postshow was about the return of Amy Wesson, 45, Liisa Winkler, 42, and Guinevere Van Seenus, 47.
