OMG! I love this story: A 65-year-old will today become the oldest woman to model at London Fashion Week.

Valerie Pain, who began her career in the Sixties, will be taking part in the All Walks Beyond The Catwalk event, which has been endorsed by Sarah Brown and the British Fashion Council.

Today, the mother-of-one said that designers could be more open-minded about using and designing for older women.  "A lot of designers could take something from this and realise they can design for all types of women."
