I used to hear that 30 was the maximum age for models, but more and more women are staying in the business longer and longer opening the way for models to continue on for longer periods of time. The industry has found places for models as 53 in the case of Kaylan Pickford. Obviously models can be very very young these days, but the business has made way for attractive women that are older than the norm realizing that they also have appeal in the real world. I personally think that as long as you have the look, you can still be a model. I have seen models who were supposedly over the hill that are still gorgeous and should still be on the cover of magazines and on the run way.
