Getting your gear off in front of a stranger is not something you do every day. But a new exhibition of women aged over 50 photographed naked demanded exactly that.
Melbourne photographer Ponch Hawkes has shot a stunning black and white series of older women in the raw, resulting in a joyous representation of bodies in all shapes and sizes. Called 500 Strong , the exhibition celebrates womanhood generally and those featured specifically, breaking the bizarre taboo that suggests bodies of this ilk should not be seen.

While Hawkes says “most couldn’t give a hoot” about stripping off, others were slightly anxious, but all agreed it was an important thing to do. “It’s embracing the body whatever shape and size you are really.”
A callout via word of mouth and social media asked women across Victoria to get involved and the response was overwhelming. Hawkes shot the portraits in Melbourne, Geelong and Shepparton and found groups of friends came together, while others attended solo, their underlying motivation similar.

“Because they thought older women shouldn’t be excluded from the visual archive of our lives,” says Hawkes. “We don’t know know what the normal process of ageing is with women because we don’t see any images of them.”
Older women often speak of feeling invisible, of hitting middle age and finding their presence diminished. Even in art, representations of women beyond a certain age are limited.
That lack of visual documentation has negative health effects, Hawkes says, shutting down women having a comfortable relationship with their bodies, as well as a practical impact, making it harder for them to find employment.
“We are still held to the standard of young, size 6 models in fashion magazines. While there’s more diversity in the colour of people’s skin and their backgrounds, they’re still very skinny and very young.”
Participants could opt to remain anonymous, using a range of props to cover their faces, from fans and books to fruit, footies and saucepans, animal masks and seaweed; one even brought a chandelier.
Asked how they felt about the photo shoot, the women expressed everything from pride and fearlessness through to being thankful for their bodies. “At this age I am in my glory. I hold a lit chandelier because they throw glory”; “The fan is for hot flushes, the tattoo reflects making my mark and the flowers for a head and heart full of bloomings.”

One woman photographed said she googled ‘old women’ and ‘old men’ and found a thousand, mostly negative words, to describe older women, and only eight to describe men.
“As you get older, you want to say ‘I’m still here’,” says Hawkes. Among the participants are several women who’ve had mastectomies, others with double mastectomies and reconstructions.

The show is part of a broader event called Flesh After Fifty , the name a quote from movie star Joan Crawford, who at that age reportedly demanded a photojournalist shoot her naked, saying “Something happens to the flesh after fifty.”
It is the brainchild of Martha Hickey, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the Royal Melbourne Hospital, who through her research into menopause found women tended to think of that stage of life as an ending, rather than a beginning. She hopes to shift the narrative around older women and challenge many of the assumptions made.She makes the point that women over fifty will soon be the largest sector of society.
Lead curator Jane Scott says Flesh After Fifty is about promoting change in attitudes about what constitutes a healthy body image. “Older women are in need of the opportunity to celebrate their bodies and young women are in desperate need of positive images of mature women to alleviate the fear and misgivings they have about ageing.”
Across five weeks, Abbotsford Convent will host talks about positive ageing, physical safety, life post-COVID and mental health; films; circus and dance workshops; performance, comedy and dinners. Hawkes’ 500 Strong is a centrepiece of the event – and a world first.
“I didn’t realise that when I started doing this. It’s a really daring experience and a really trusting experience, that they would come to me,” she says. “Basically what this is doing is honouring women.”
Flesh after Fifty runs from March 4 til April 11 at the Abbotsford Convent. See fleshafterfifty.com.au

Now these are some sexy mother strutters.
Cutting hourglass figures in the trendiest fashions, top models over 50 are re-emerging as timeless beauties on social media timelines everywhere.
In fact, supermodel Paulina Porizkova , 56, recently emphasized to Page Six just how important it is for the fashion world to begin embracing the beauty of women of all ages.
“I think we’ve made enormous strides in accepting all different sorts of beauty,” she said. “But age, ageism, that’s kind of like the last frontier.”
And like Porizkova, pioneering runway slayers of the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s like Naomi Campbell, 51, Cindy Crawford, 55, and Christie Brinkley, 67, all still look picture-perfect in their bikinis and bodycons.
So whoever said “ age before beauty ” must not be following these classic cuties on the ‘gram.
Here’s a roster of the digital catwalk’s most enduringly hot models.
No need to double-check your calendars — it’s not 1996 — Helena Christensen is just still smoking hot. Laced in naughty-girl noir lingerie by Coco de Mer, the 52-year-old supermodel put social media in a chokehold last week when she shared sultry snaps of herself in bondage-inspired intimates on Instagram.
No stranger to showing off her goodies in silky underthings, Christensen recently reprised her role as a Victoria’s Secret runway babe, posing for the high-end panty and bra brand’s holiday campaign in December — 24 years after she made her debut on the VS stage.
Ring the alarm, she’s the hottest new mom. With her brand new baby in tow, Campbell, 51, continues to reign as mother superior of the supermodel assemblage . With a body that just won’t quit, the 5-foot-10 CFDA Fashion Icon Award winner commanded the May 2021 cover of posh pop culture periodical V Magazine in an all-black Tom Ford bikini with a cropped jacket and thigh-high boots by Burberry to match. Talk about hitting the badass mother lode.
It’s hard not to slay on Instagram when “fierce” is literally in your name. Macpherson, 57, is flexing her toned legs, tight abs and tongue-wagging tush for her more than 584,000 online followers — and they’re loving every inch of the 6-foot-tall seasoned supermodel.
Nicknamed “The Body” in 1989, the Australian stunner is still living up to her sobriquet by taking good care of her body with products from her plant-based wellness company, WelleCo . And with an apple bottom like hers, the mom of two deserves two big green thumbs up.
From starring in the 1978 film “Pretty Baby” to beaming in 2021 as a foxy leading lady, Shields, 56, has got it going on — and her “it” factor just keeps going and going. After recently giving Instagram fans a peek at her lusciously plush cheeks — a sexy swimsuit shot captured by her good friend and fellow fox Helena Christensen — the 6-foot-tall showstopper re-solidified herself as one of the most darling dreamboats the modeling and movie world has ever seen.
Glamour grandma of four, Johnson, 68, is just as stunning now as she was when she debuted as the first black model to grace the cover of Vogue in 1974. Whether flexing her lusty, long legs poolside or posing alongside her daughter Anansa Sims, 42, for Elle Magazine, Johnson is living proof that age ain’t nothing but a number.
On the brink of humanly impossible radiance, there’s Christie Brinkley. The OG of the hot girls, Brinkley, 67, is still sizzling up swimsuit season with the same fire as the previously unprecedented three-time cover girl of the iconic Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues between 1979 and 1981. The mouthwatering mama of three — including model daughter Sailor Lee Brinkley-Cook — recently flaunted her flawless figure on the beaches of Parrot Cay island in Turks and Caicos. And from sea to shining sea, this American beauty will forever be a shore thing.
Stop what you’re doing: It’s time for a Paulina appreciation pause . With a body that deserves a round of applause, Porizkova, 56, stole the show on Instagram this week, showcasing her incredibly sculpted curves in a gold string bikini. The Czechoslovakia-born bombshell, who is dating director Aaron Sorkin , checks all the same boxes she did when her banging beach body first rocked the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in 1984. Now that’s a tidal wave of everlasting T&A.
The babe with the beauty mark continues making her mark on beauty. Shining as the supermodel standard, Crawford, 55, spent the latter half of May stunning on the sands of Miami Beach , where she and husband Rande Gerber just purchased a $2.3 million penthouse. And whether she’s seductively sucking down a can of soda in 1992 or sensually soaking up the sun last month, it’s fair to say that the 5-foot-9 masterpiece and mother of model Kaia Gerber is the perennial gift that keeps on giving.
From dazzling as the pièce de résistance on runways in Paris to palming a peach on Sundays in Atlanta, Cynthia Bailey’s beauty abounds. Before becoming a fab fixture of Bravo’s “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” the 54-year-old took the fashion world by storm with her striking features and faultless frame. And Bailey recently blessed fans with glimpses of her bodacious body in a bathing suit while filming scenes for the forthcoming “ Real Housewives All-Stars ” in Turks and Caicos.

Sofia Vergara recently turned 45 on July 10th and she’s proudly flaunting her birthday suit.
The “Modern Family” star posed completely nude for Women’s Health’s Naked 2017 issue. And the highest-paid television star in the world claimed flaunting her curves was a breeze.
“I’ve always been very comfortable with my body,” the actress told the magazine . “You know, I’m Latin so we grow up going to the beach in a G-string. I used to do work for the Latin market in my 20s. Like I would do calendar shoots, very sexy and everything. And you know things have changed… how much you take care of yourself is a reality. We all age and you have to embrace it.”
However, Vergara admitted she was a bit nervous about the upcoming photo shoot. Right before, Vergara was filming “Bent” in Rome and “ate like an animal.” She wasn’t exercising and then two days before the shoot, she came home with pneumonia. Looking over at photos of potential poses sent by the creative team also didn’t help.
“They’re all of tall models holding their boobs with one arm,” she said. “But I can barely cover my boobs with two arms — I’m a 32-triple-D! My boobs are real, and I had a baby. If I grab them, I can’t even cover the nipple!”
These days, Vergara is attempting to have a regular fitness routine, but even she gets tempted to stay in bed.
“Like I find any excuse not to do it,” she said. “[I’m] Taking a couple of yoga classes. I’m very bad at it. I don’t have much patience. So I’m always trying to find something that I can do."
She also added, "I don't know if I'm strong. I have bad knees and very thin bones; I can barely do a pushup. I wish I could be a little more athletic, but when you're born with these gigantic boobs... I've had them since I was 13 and they've gotten bigger when I was pregnant and had the baby."
And even though her husband, "Magic Mike" actor Joe Manganiello, is a lifelong athlete, she still can't seem to enjoy any workout sessions, either alone or with her beau.
"It's like torture for me," she explained. "I'm in a bad mood two hours before, I'm in a bad mood while I'm doing it, I'm in a bad mood at the end because I have to schedule the next class."
Vergara did say it’s gotten easier for women like her to proudly embrace their shape in front of cameras.
“It’s not just the Barbie doll on the cover,” she said. “It’s real women. So it’s getting better. I think before it was a little bit more strict to how women were supposed to look... It's not about having muscle or cut abs. I don't have abs because I'm not 'I need to be a fit model with the perfect body.' That would take too much effort!"
