Dear Iman,
Give your gays a raise.
Worshipfully,
Not Your Gays
Heidi, if you're reading this, THIS is how it's done. It's tasteful and appropriate, the print and color are gorgeous and flatter her, and the hair, makeup and shoes are perfect.
Our only criticism (come on, you knew we had to come up with SOMETHING) is that it doesn't seem to flatter her figure that much. At 52, she's still model skinny but the dress gives her something of a thick-waisted look.
Still, it's only a minor criticism because the overall effect is stunning.
EDIT: And because Iman is the quintessential Diva, it's appropriate that we also FINALLY have a new Dames and Divas Deathmatch on T Lo today! Go vote!

52?!?!
All that and her accessorizing is impeccable...David Bowie.

It's a touch Lily Pulitzer, but I like it.
Is it bad that a straight girl is MADLY in love with Iman? Seriously, I wanna be her makeup slave. Love love love to Iman.
Iman is such a class act; she is perfection. Too bad those damn Canucks got a hold of her.
She looks GORGEOUS! Especially the hair and makeup.
IN IN IN!!
That is perfection!
Except for the awkward fabric at the waist........STUNNING! Iman, would you lend me your gays for a day please? Love you, *kiss, kiss*
Gee, I don't know - that top is totally shapeless. Everything else is gorgeous, but the top needs to be better fitted.
MUST. HAVE. THIS. DRESS. She looks stunning!
Now THAT's what I'm talkin' about!
Check out the ruby ring too. No plastic bangles on Imam.
That color on her is perfection!
This is a class act. A woman who doesn't dress like a kid and looks fabulous.
That color is gorgeous on her, I also like the print. As far as the fit at the waist goes, It is a sarong style dress with the printed chiffon draped over a fitted sleeveless sheath. The belt is pulling the draped chiffon in at the waist. Very nice.
Isn't she the best? LOVE HER! She looks stunning.
LOVE. HER. Love the dress, too, although I agree the belt is not the perfect choice.
Simple. Effortless. Chic.
Perfection.
Iman is made of awesome.
WOW! What else can I say?
She's an amazing woman and she knows what looks good on her and has class.
By the way, boys, I'm loving the new features while we wait for the next season : )
I don't think Iman could ever be out.
About 10 years ago I saw her in person at a bookstore in NYC.
She's even more freakin goregous in person.
Iman is FIERCE!And the bitch doesn't age!
Gorgeous woman!! She looks fabulous. The one teensy weensy thing I would have changed is the color of the belt. Would have liked a shade of pink found in that amazing dress. Way to go, Iman, show us 50ish gals what it is all about!!!

She's a goddess! I loved when she said to Daniel V., "Your dress is a little bit boring. But that is OK, because I'm not boring." Hilarious!!
She reminds me of Dita Von Teese in these pictures; absolutely flawless.
I love the vibrant pink and beautiful ring. 52? That's amazing!
Her hair really is beautiful. I don't like the white belt, but the dress is a lovely color.
And living with David must be keeping her young, because she looks amazing. :-)
That color on her is nothing short of fabulous.
In general, I don't like one-shoulder dresses, but she looks fantastic, she really made it work.
the dress is simply divine. i love floral dresses. they're so feminine.
Iman looks beautiful as usual Heidi wishes she could look even half as good.
Iman looks nothing short of amazing. That color on her is to die for. However, as mentioned, the frock has a few minor fit issues around the bodice and waist (But,who knows? Perhaps it's really just the angle at which she was photographed).
Thanks for tossing in the Bowie pic. He's my English idol.
- edina -
Oh, my God, she's stunning. The first picture actually made me gasp.
IN.
It's Iman.

Apparently she's also missing an arm now, too.
100% agree with you, boys. The dress gives her some extra volume in the middle, but overall just stunning. And her skin just glows.
Perfectfor her. Tasteful and classy. Give her gays a raise, indeed!
Hell, I never had that body even at 22!
Ah hell, I'm still getting used to the new posting boxes. That last post was moi. :-)
*returns to internet idiot closet*
Last Sunday, I saw Iman out on 5th Avenue (twice), just walking around with her daughter. She was dressed shlumpy (baggy olive khakis & hoodie, no makeup), but she still looked amazing.
She definately wears the clothes - the clothes do not wear her, and that's why she can pull off looks that others cannot. It's a gift.

it always helps having David Bowie on your arm.
STUN. NING.
Cannot wait for PRC2.
That is one hot bitch. I love her!
David Bowie is a lucky lucky man.
Don't hit me, but I'm not loving her hair. Otherwise, she is just fabulous, a real class act, here.
All that, and Bowie, too. sigh....
Everything goes well with Bowie!
man she looks good.
She's excellence, and the same design but with a longer dress works wonders for her in this photo here: http://jezebel.com/383590/iman-pretty-perfect
obviously in
i like the silhouette and makeup and hair and basically everything but the print doesn't say 'fashion' to me
it would also look great in black, but maybe not on her
I saw more of these pics on Bowiewonderworld last night and some of the straight on poses give her figure more shape. But mainly there was the glow she was giving off showing off her husband, which she was really doing. She looked radiant!
Bowie's thin again and looking wonderful, and not botoxed or pulled and tucked! I don't think I could bear him doing a Kenny Rogers.

I agree about the perfect hair and makeup, but am I the only one who doesn't love this dress? It makes her look like she has no waist, and the length is just wrong. This hemlength is not flattering to anyone. It can be just above the knee without being too short. Lower calf length would also be gorgeous.
Oh I forgot! Happy Anniversary David and Iman! 16 years today!
BrianB
Whatta doll!
Yes boyz, I agree. I like 95% of this ensemble. I don't like the pattern though, it reminds me of one of Mrs Roper's mu-mu's.
Iman is always IN!
No question, it's Iman, she's always IN. What a classy, beautiful lady she is.
Fabulous.
I HATE one-shoulder dresses.
Slightly OT - there was a perfect storm of pose and shadow in those pics that gave Iman some serious cankles.
OUT. She looks like a housewife from the 50's. And she's wearing way to much makeup for her age. Her hair's nice though.
She looks fabulous. She could look MORE fabulous with a dress that better flatters her figure, but I ain't gonna quibble.
What she wore is gorgeous and age-appropriate without being dowdy. Plus David still looks great!
I would love to accessorize with a rocker. I'm 52 and in great shape too. Where do I get one??
52?????? No way. That's genetically impossible.

Maybe, on planet Fabulon.
In and fabulous
I don't like her lipstick shade but that is irrelevant. She looks stunning. The dress is divine, her hair beautiful, fab shoes... this is how you do it.
See, celebs? You don't need to look like an asshat in public.
Sewing Siren, I love it!!
Maybe, on planet Fabulon.
What's interesting to me is that I get the quibbles--fit issues, wrong length, dated print--but it doesn't seem to matter --- she still looks amazing.
Love her, she's my new girl crush!
And notice, no 'tea party' bling with mismatched necklaces; she's sporting a nice ring (that's some rock) and a stunning broach (antique perhaps?)
So where is the attention? On Iman's fabulous face, not on her jewelry collection. Smart woman, clever gays.
I won't repeat the nit picky comments posted before, although they're mostly valid. My one personal problem with Iman is her accent; it's like fingernails on the blackboard to me. And yes, I realize that Somali is her first language, not English. It's just an aversion I have to certain heavy accents... think Frances McDormand in Fargo. I have to watch that movie on DVD with the sound off and the captions on - the accent is that annoying to me.
I kind of love her, but I'm not crazy about the dress. The thick around the middle makes it look like she has a booty. I do MOT think Mrs. Bowie has a booty.
In. SO SO IN.
I love her nonchalantly displayed polio vaccination.
doh.. MOT??? i mean NOT! This is what happens when you type one-handed with a screaming baby on your lap!

ROFLMAO.
On anyone else, this would look like catalog resort wear (or yes, Bill, Lily Pulitzer). On Iman, it just looks like an opportunity wasted. She usually wears something much more fitted and cool.
52, oh, sigh. She is stunning and ageless--what a wonderful role model for women of any age.
Amazing--
and probably she (her gays) put it all together is 10 minutes.
That is how it should be done!
Confidence in herself must be her number one asset.
She just glows and makes David look better.
Just an observation: Looks like Iman has cankles in that pic. I never noticed that about her before....FYI: our Laura has one of the best sets of legs I have ever seen. She can put anybody to shame.
By the way, isn't it about time for another "Laura" post, maybe take us on a tour of her studio which I read she had.
"Ziggy played guitar", grew up, and married Iman. I bet the Spiders are sooo jealous.
She & Tim should team up and take on the "Housewives of ... Wherever". Finally, a smackdown I'd pay to watch.

Iman spells class!!! Never knew she is 52. She's still gorgeous with impeccable taste!!!
the top is really bothering me because it makes her boobs look low. makeup is flawless, colors are gorge
Hmm, impeccably coiffed, shod and accessorized, and I think the color of the dress is stunning on her. The length is flattering, but appropriate for a woman of a certain age (though, considering her knock-out gams, she could definitely go shorter if she wanted).
However, I do not care for the fit of the dress in the bodice and at the waist; it bulks her up, and gives her an odd mono-bosom.
But, on balance, she's IN!
CLAS-SY!!!!! love the color, love the print, the belt is a little so-so, but the length, perfecto! of course, like gotham tomato said -- she can pretty much wear anything and look faboo.
She looks GORGEOUS!!!!!!

Perfectly accessorized with her David :-)
the woman weighs about 15 pounds and you still call her "thick-waisted"? STOP.
ya think? sorry, out, I mean she's gorge,but the dress and white shoes and belt? no. and the pin? no.
DAVID BOWIE! Seriously, who is more fashion forward/fashionable than this guy? His friggin mug shot is better than 90% of most models photo shoots. If ever a celeb should be a guest judge, it's him (though he'd most likely never do it).
Stunningly beautiful woman and the hair and face are magnificent. But I hate the dress. Sorry.
INNNNNN!!!!
Iman will never be out.
