Kako je Lyn Slater (65) postala Slučajna ikona

Slučajna ikona – tako sebe naziva Lyn Slater, 65-godišnja profesorica Sveučilišta Fordham koju samo na instagramu prati više od 420 tisuća obožavatelja. Nadimak koji si je dodijelila govori o tome kako je postala modni uzor.

Naime, našla se je na pravom mjestu u pravo vrijeme, na Tjednu mode u New Yorku. „Zbigecana“ od glave do pete, za taj je događaj odabrala Yamamota i Chanelovu torbicu. Uz zavidnu figuru bilo je to dovoljno da zasjeni modele na pisti i postane meta modnih fotografa koji su pretpostavili da se radi o osobi utjecajnoj u svijetu mode.

No Lyn je taj trenutak iskoristila kako bi postala stvarno utjecajna. Pišući blog i objavljujući fotografije na Instagramu, postala je prava modna ikona ženama svoje generacije.
