10 Pics Of Cindy Crawford's Best-Dressed Moments In Her 50s
Cindy Crawford, fashion icon and one of the original "supermodels" of the '90s, will forever hold a place in fashion history. Known for her bombshell glamour, all-American appeal, and, of course, her bouncy blowouts and signature beauty mark, she carved out a league of her own in the modeling industry. Over the decades, Crawford has delivered countless memorable runway looks and red carpet appearances, while fronting campaigns for the likes of Versace, Valentino, and Christian Dior. For designers, having "The Cindy Crawford" flaunt their creations at high-profile events is considered both an honor and a statement. In doing so, Crawford has had many standout fashion moments.
One of the most famous ones was when she debuted the iconic red Versace dress at the 1991 Academy Awards alongside her then beau, Richard Gere. Intentional or not, the image of Crawford in the figure-hugging dress with its plunging neckline remains etched in the minds of her longtime admirers. The appearance became such a defining fashion moment that it helped skyrocket Versace's global profile even further. Off the catwalk, she is also known for her chic-meets-edgy street style, often rocking leather jackets with casual tees and jeans. Yet through every era and evolved trend, one thing has remained consistent, and that's Crawford's effortless ability to exude sophistication and poise in every look she delivers.
With a style sensibility that continues to feel both classic and current, the former supermodel still commands attention whenever she steps onto a red carpet. From her appearances at Paris Fashion Week to the Met Gala, Crawford consistently proves she can pull off even the boldest ensembles while elevating understated looks into fashion statements of their own, even back in her 50s.
