MANHATTAN, NEW YORK CITY: At the age of 75, not may women would dare put on a red hot bikini and show the whole world. However, Diane von Furstenberg, the fashion designer from Beligum, recently shared a selfie on Instagram that has left everyone awestruck. Exuding confidence in a red one-piece, she is being praised for her look. 

Diane's picture, posted on Instagram on Thursday, August 18, 2022, has gathered more than 21K likes in a day along with encouraging comments from several celebrities. The designer donned a bright red swimsuit with high-cut legs and paired it with a couple of beaded bracelets and a watch.

"Selfie at 75? Trying to own it and 2 hours of daily swimming helps! I know I should smile but I feel stupid smiling at myself! Gratitude," she wrote in the post. 

The comment section is filled with people showing their support for the actress. Plenty of celebrities also commended the fashion designer. 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' actress Andie Macdowell wrote "Fabulous" followed by a fire emoji while Canadian supermodel Shalom Harlow commented two hearts along with a raised hand emoji.

CEO and Founder of Iman Cosmetics Iman Abdulmajid called Diane "Fearless & Beautiful," and filmmaker Ava DuVernay, famous for the 2014 historical drama 'Selma', commented "Stunning and sensational." British-French jewelry designer Jade Jagger called the picture "Perfect." 

However, this is not the first time the legendary fashion designer has flaunted her body. Back in 2021, she had posted a similar selfie where she is seen wearing an emerald green one-piece. She captioned the post with a cheeky, "Am I crazy to post this ? Own your age ....it’s a proof you have lived ! Love to everyone ❤️😃" She accessorized the original swimsuit with a similar minimal look, beaded bracelets, a watch and a pendant. 



 

For those wondering how the 75-year-old stays in shape, sometime later, Diane shared another one-piece look for her followers, emphasizing on the importance of swimming. Flaunting a teal one-piece, with wet, messy hair, she captioned the post, "Swimming keeps a body in shape ! Even an old one !"



 

Clearly, the Belgian icon is setting goals in maintaining one's physique even at the age of 75. Not a stranger to "owning it", her book was also aptly titled, 'Own It: The Secret to Life' which serves as a blueprint for enjoying personal and professional success at any age.
