Martha Stewart refuses to ‘dress for her age’ as she hates the concept
The former TV host, who has been trolled for posting so-called ‘thirst trap’ photos on her social media despite the fact she’s aged 82, added she doesn’t think about ageing and refuses to comply with anyone’s idea of how older people should behave or dress.
She told Page Six Style when asked if she has any plans to change her wardrobe as she ages: “Dressing for whose age? I don’t think about age. I think people are more and more and more (fabulous) than they’re ever been in their senior years, and I applaud every one of them.”
Mum-of-one Martha, who was a former teen model and whose daughter is broadcaster Alexis Stewart, 58, added: “I’ve dressed the same since I was 17.”
She also insisted: “If you look at my pictures on my Instagram, I look pretty much the same.”
It comes after she shrugged off criticism over the summer for sinking a “small iceberg” into her cocktail on a cruise from Greenland from Iceland.
She showed off her drink on an Instagram Story during her holiday, sparking massive backlash from fans of her use of pieces of naturally formed bergs in her booze amid the climate change crisis that has seen wildfires sweep the globe.
Martha was accused of posting a “tone deaf” update on her social media in August by bragging about her use of the ice during a Swan Hellenic cruise on the SH Vega expedition ship.
She captioned a carousel of photos of her break on social media: “End of the first zodiac cruise... into a very beautiful fjord on the east coast of Greenland.
“We actually captured a small iceberg for our cocktails tonight.”
Her post included a snap of chunks of ice on a drinks cart and others toasting with their drinks.
Despite being slammed for their use of the ice, Martha hit back on Instagram by posting an image of an iceberg with the caption: “Pleated iceberg. perfect for cocktails!”
She also reposted a Washington Post article with the headline, ‘Martha Stewart put an iceberg in her drink. Experts say it’s no big deal’.
