jings I discovered a dog wearing a feather boa! I would guess that Raquel is in her late 70s.

jinglbellsfrocks Tue 25-Feb-14 13:23:23

always was a strapping lass

Bet she works out in the gym. Prob got muscles under that frock. I reckon she's thickened. hmm

jinglbellsfrocks Tue 25-Feb-14 13:24:14

She's only 73 anyway! hmm

soop Tue 25-Feb-14 13:26:20

You did scroll down a bit did n't you?

Elegran Tue 25-Feb-14 14:25:25

Leopardskin print dress?

I believe the skin on her shoulders and chest, and her still fabulous bosom, but that face has had a lot of moisturiser and a good layer of makeup.

jinglbellsfrocks Tue 25-Feb-14 14:27:31

Red dress in my link. Which does work!

Galen Tue 25-Feb-14 14:40:33

I would imagine if you relied on your face and figure for your living you would use everything that was available to help !
Actors and actresses just have to , to keep themselves in work and why not , I say !!

Sorry everyone I am not all that good with links.
It was supposed to be a picture of Raquel W at the Awards
She looked well for 70 odd smile

Having had an engineer here this morning I realised after he'd gone that I was wearing odd earrings [bet he thought 'dotty old woman' sad]. It made me look in the mirror properly. I put pretty much the same make up on each day and could probably do it with my eyes closed and, quite frankly that's how it looked. So, from now on I'm going to use the magnifying mirror. It's not a pleasant sight but I've been painting on eyebrows where I think they should be [not where they are] etc. And as for eyeliner and stuff like that; oh dear blush.
