Reacting to the post, a user wrote, “Finally you are here,” another fan commented, “Welcome to Instagram….. looking beautiful & elegant as always.” A comment read, “You look absolutely stunning and elegant.”

After sometime, she shared another picture of herself, which was rather a close-up. Sharing her thoughts, she wrote, “In the 70s the film and fashion industry was absolutely male dominated, and I would often be the only woman on a set. Over the course of my career, I have been photographed and filmed by many talented men. A woman’s gaze though, is different.

This series of pictures was shot by young photographer @tanyyaa.a_ in the comfort of my home. No lights, no makeup artist, no hairdresser, no stylist, no assistants. Just a lovely sunny afternoon together.

It’s such a pleasure to see so many young women working on both sides of the lens today. I look forward to discovering more such talent on Instagram.”
