Sue's blog: Helen Mirren's bikini body
Friday 18th July 2008
Did you catch that picture this week of Helen Mirren looking absolutely stunning in her bikini? God, wearing a bikini - most of us worry about putting on a swimsuit! Talk about a flat tummy - hers was and yet she looked so womanly, with curves in all the right places.
We were delighted to have Helen Mirren on our cover this year. She is such an icon. When I met her I realised that she loves dressing up, enjoys showing off her figure and doesn't think because you are of-an-age you can't wear certain things.
She has the right amount of confidence that women admire in a woman, so you imagine she doesn't care what other people think. She knows what suits her, she knows what she likes. She has an innate style that means she knows how to wear clothes and dress for the occasion. And she doesn't always take herself so seriously...
Ok, I'm sure she exercises and doesn't eat too much, but that for me is about having a degree of common sense. Helen has done more for woman of all ages by proving you don't have to be thin to enjoy looking good. You just have to be happy with yourself.
