At 68, Jerry Hall shows her grandsons how it's done
Jerry Hall may be approaching her 69th birthday, but the model, actress and style icon is just as in demand now as she was in the heyday of Studio 54. Hall holds a seemingly permanent position atop the glitziest of guest lists, and with a new Burberry advertising campaign to add to her illustrious portfolio, her post-Murdoch marriage era might just be her best yet. The Burberry campaign, released ahead of Mother's Day in the US (which will happen on Sunday May 11 this year), stars Hall alongside her daughters and grandchildren – Georgia May Jagger, 33, and Elizabeth 'Lizzy' Jagger, 41, with their respective sons seven month-year-old Dean and four-year-old Eugene. Hall looks fantastic in a trench dress inspired by the British brand's signature coat, while her family members wear various check print and military-inspired pieces in what Burberry described in a press release as a 'heartfelt ode to family'. It's also a tribute to Hall's fashion renaissance, which has been brewing for a while now, perhaps since she fronted Saint Laurent's spring/summer 2022 campaign in sharp tailoring and crushed velvet. These images recalled the time she wore Yves Saint Laurent's famous tuxedo in her first ever fashion show in 1975, as well as her closing walk in a Le Smoking tux during the designer's final show in 2002. Famously scouted while sunbathing on a St Tropez beach when she was 17, the small town Texan-born teenager was to become one of the original supermodels. She was a regular on catwalks and covers before her high-profile relationship with Mick Jagger, which spanned more than two decades, cemented her icon status. Synonymous with Studio 54 and Seventies glamour, Hall has remained relevant throughout the intervening years, but has returned to the spotlight of late. She's long been known for her signature beauty look – flowing blonde curls, deep side parting, bold red lip – as well as her disco-inspired fashion choices, from Halston silk gowns to Thierry Mugler suits via plenty of sequins. This glitzy style came to the fore when she played a starring role in a high-drama Dolce & Gabbana beauty campaign named 'Il Pranzo' (meaning 'the lunch' in Italian) in 2024. The short film shot by Steven Klein saw Hall command a table of other stars including her daughter Georgia May, dressed in a vinyl leopard-print trench coat and rocking her trademark red lip. Legendary make-up artist Sandy Linter, who worked with Hall from the earliest days of her modelling career, explains the ongoing appeal. 'Working with her was a joy,' she says. 'I did her first shoot with Anna Wintour and photographer Rico Puhlmann in Barbados for Harper's Bazaar in 1975. From there, she worked with every big fashion magazine and became a cover girl. From that first day, her work was, and continues to be, impressive.' Equally admirable is her ability to bounce back from adversity. In 2022, it was announced that Hall and Rupert Murdoch, her then husband of six years, were divorcing. News that the media tycoon instigated the split via email broke a year later, with sources quoted in a Vanity Fair article claiming that Hall was 'devastated', despite public claims that the former couple remained friends. Clearly, this has not been enough to stop Hall in her glamorous tracks. As well as fronting high-profile campaigns, she's become a regular on the fashion front row, especially at Burberry shows, where she has developed a slightly more pared-back aesthetic that's just as chic as her sultriest looks. She recently attended Burberry's autumn/winter 2025 show in London with her daughters, offering a wearable take on her signature style in a simple black dress worn with sheer tights and mid-calf boots – plus a vampy black leather trench coat to ensure that touch of drama remained in place. Her signature long blonde curls were replaced with a sleek straight look for this appearance, but it nevertheless continued a compelling case for embracing long hair in later life. It certainly doesn't hurt Hall's case that Seventies style is firmly in fashion, from an abundance of suede to an influx of floaty blouses. This is thanks in large part to the boho revival prompted by Chemena Kamali at Chloé, another fashion house with which Hall is intimately linked. Having walked in Karl Lagerfeld's Chloé shows in the 1970s, she was a natural choice to appear in a series of portraits released ahead of Kamali's first show as creative director in 2024. Hall also sat front row with Georgia May and Sienna Miller for the influential show, trading Studio 54 glitz for nouveau-boho romance in a classic beige trench coat, half-moon bag and thigh-high tan boots. The stylish mother-daughter duo were back on the front row for Chloé's autumn/winter 2025 show in Paris in March, with Hall channelling Parisian chic in an all-black ensemble that featured a lace-adorned silk camisole, leather jacket and corset-tie shoes. 'Jerry Hall [has made] an indelible footprint in the world of modelling,' says Linter. More than this, she's influenced the fashion industry at large, which looks set to continue as she heads towards her next decade.

How to get the Saint Laurent SS25 runway look for way, way less
Fashion by Camille Macawili 4 hours ago For SS25, Creative Director Anthony Vaccarello continues to evolve the Saint Laurent aesthetic with mannish tailoring blended with unexpected bohemian details. The mood for the season is refined, timeless, intellectual, and romantic – and the Hollywood celebrities and tastemakers such as Hailey Bieber, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Elsa Hosk are here for it. The campaign, photographed by David Sims, features Hollywood icon Michelle Pfeiffer posing against city views who embodies the Saint Laurent woman. Here, Emirates Woman breaks down the Saint Laurent SS25 runway look – and how to shop it for less. Tailored oversized suit Sharp suits are key. Instead of rigid silhouettes, opt for a fit that is slouchy and oversized (think: Yves Saint Laurent Le Smoking tuxedo). Look to brands such as The Frankie Shop and Zara for an impeccable set without overspending. Bomber jacket Complete the corporate look and inject a nonchalant and cool vibe to your outfit with an oversized bomber jacket. Button down shirt Opt for a striped or a crisp plain shirt that you can accessorize with a slim sleek neck-tie to take the look up a notch. Pointed pumps Balance out the masculine silhouettes with a sky-high pair of pointed pumps. Penny loafers For a laidback look, a pair of loafers does the job. Search for a sleek patent material to give off a sophisticated and polished appeal. Gold jewellery When adding the finishing touches such as earrings or bracelets, remember to go big or go home, to inject a dose of femininity. Oversized sunglasses A Saint Laurent look is not complete without a pair of bold statement eyewear. The key to nailing the look? While the whole look may seem traditional and structured, fluidity, ease and a cool attitude is all you need. For a bold impact that's easy on the eye, stick to a muted colour palette of deep greys, rich chocolate brown, and burgundy red. Swipe through the gallery below to nail the Saint Laurent look for less: – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram Image: Instagram @danixmichelle, @rosiehw, @hoskelsa

Saint Laurent closes Paris fashion week with bold statement of intent
Saint Laurent has cross-generational cool. On the last night of Paris fashion week, Kate Moss sat next to Catherine Deneuve, both in black tailoring, sheer blouses and high heels. Pedro Almodóvar and Rossy de Palma smiled for the cameras, while Hailey Bieber and Charli XCX kept their shades on. Saint Laurent's daytime silhouette this season is an inverted triangle, with broad shoulders narrowing to slim skirts and sheer tights. For evening, it flipped upside down, with slinky sweaters and grand ball skirts. The colours were of cocktail ring gemstones: emerald, sapphire, ruby and garnet. There was leopard print, naturally, in silk blouses with a silicone gloss. With slicked-back hair, shards of rock crystal jewellery, hands nonchalantly in pockets – nothing so mundane as a handbag here – the models oozed aloof Parisian chic, sauntering easily in spike heels to the voice of Nina Simone. Designer Anthony Vaccarello said before the show he wanted the look to be clean, no ornamentation, no decoration. 'Simplicity of silhouette – as if created with a few pencil strokes – has defined the Saint Laurent ideal.' Under Vaccarello, the house of Saint Laurent has its sights set bigger than fashion. Not content with being one of the leading names in style, the company has ambitions to be a cultural powerhouse. This show was moved from its usual slot at the beginning of Paris fashion week to the end to avoid a clash with the Oscars, because Saint Laurent Productions is now a fully-fledged movie studio, producing the multi Oscar-nominated Emilia Pérez. The fate of Emilia Peréz was torpedoed halfway through award season by the disclosure of racist tweets by star Karla Sofia Gascon, but this has not deterred Saint Laurent, which has also produced Parthenope, a new film by Paolo Sorrentino. Film is seen by Saint Laurent as a platform to amplify its cool image beyond style into the broader culture, and Vaccarello recreated Yves Saint Laurent's famous 1966 Le Smoking tuxedo jacket for the actor Celeste Dalla Porta to wear on screen. A Saint Laurent-backed project with the director Jim Jarmusch is also in the works. Saint Laurent's cultural ambitions are also reflected in an ambitious revamp of its Paris flagship boutique in collaboration with the Judd Foundation, which promotes the work of the late American artist Donald Judd. Furniture by Judd is for sale at the Paris store, displayed alongside Saint Laurent evening gowns and handbags, while an exhibition of Judd's woodcuts and prints is on display on an upper floor. The house has also diversified into the restaurant industry, with the opening of a Paris branch of LA's Sushi Park.
