Christy Turlington has maintained her supermodel good looks well into her fifties.

On Friday the Vogue cover girl was seen outside the Chanel Tribeca Festival women's lunch in New York City.

The San Francisco native - who was discovered at age 14 in Miami - wore a cream colored top with a chic and long ivory woven button-up jacket.

The pal of Linda Evangelista also had on worn-in blue denim jeans that had stylish seams on the sides as she added brown mini pumps with a black toe.

The wife of filmmaker Edward Burns looked tanned and happy as she walked alone into the luncheon. In her hands was a clutch purse, glasses and what appeared to be a gift from Chanel.

Also at the daytime event were Katie Holmes, Ashley Benson, Joey King and Kerry Washington.

This comes after she revealed she has never had plastic surgery.

She told Vogue in 2023 that going under the knife was out of the question.

'I've always been consistent about my thoughts on this, and I think because I've said it so many times, I still believe it,' she said.

'But also those are my values.'

Turlington also does not use injectables like Botox.

In April she was seen on the cover of Harper's Bazaar magazine. She displayed her age-defying in high fashion.

Discussing her approach to modelling these days, Christy said: 'I can do a day here and there. But then, two days, I'm like, "Too much. It's too much."

'I feel lucky to have the option [to model]. It's still my livelihood.'

Having soared to fame as one of the 'original supermodels' of the Nineties, she detailed the contrast of shows - for fashion giants including Chanel, Versace, and Valentino - during her heyday with the likes of Naomi Campbell and Claudia Schiffer.

She regaled: 'The shows always felt a little like chaos. I think we, as models, will hold some of that energy and that tension, and it's not peaceful in a lot of those spaces.'

Elsewhere in the interview, Christy revealed that a nude photo snapped during her heyday was circulated among her 18-year-old son's high school peers when she attended one of his basketball games. 

The stunner, 55, looked nothing short of sensational in the new shoot, in which she displayed her age-defying looks by going braless in a number of looks

She heartbreakingly confessed that 'all [she] wanted to do was disappear' when she learned that the opposing team had bullied her son, Finn Burns, by passing around her nude photo from an old shoot.

She said: 'I was surprised it hadn't happened sooner. But at the same time, I was like, "This is so rude!"'

The runway legend recounted the incident during her recent photoshoot for the cover of Harper's Bazaar, which marks her 14th collaboration with the magazine. 

She noted that the school later got involved in the scandal, adding, 'I don't feel embarrassed about anything. Regretting things is a waste of time.'

Christy famously posed nude in a memorable 1995 photoshoot for Vogue Magazine. 

The cover model has been married to actor and director Ed Burns, since 2003 and they are the parents of two children, Grace, 20, and Finn, 18.

In the recent interview, the supermodel shared that it was her child who suggested she disable comments on her Instagram posts.  

'I don't have my comments on. My daughter told me to do that a couple years ago. I'm really happy that I don't [have to see the comments],' she said. 

'I can't say that I'm Teflon. I'm sure if I did read something that was pointed or mean, it would hurt me in the same way. But I also try not to give that much attention to any of it.' 

She admitted that she's a 'shy person' as she said, referring to her photo shoots: 'I like a quiet set. If I hear any dance music or techno music, I want to flee.' 

'Being a person who is quiet and studies people, I think I learned how to not stand out. My mom never said, like, "Oh, here's how you're going to protect yourself." I think I just really paid attention, honestly,' she added.
