. “I never wore bras until I was 50,” she says. “I didn’t need them. Around 50 – or maybe it was 47 – I got a hold of an underwire bra, I think in Paris. And I picked one up and I put one on and I suddenly looked 30.”
This love affair lasted for about a decade. “Then around 60, I started taking them off in the backs of cabs, covertly, so the drivers couldn’t see. I’d unsnap them, pull one shoulder out, and stuff them in my purse. But ever since then, since 60 or maybe 57, I had been looking for a decent bra and I couldn’t find one.
Still, she wanted beautiful undergarments, and looked the world over for the best. In addition to the bra she found in Paris that sparked her interest, she shopped at a renowned lingerie store in St Barths and even paid a visit to Queen Elizabeth II’s corset maker. “I only went once, but I never forgot it,” she says.
Despite having a prolific, decades-long career, when Hutton was approached to appear in the campaign for CUUP she says, “the hairs went up on the back of my neck… Those images can be so lurid, especially when you’re 422.” Her fears were assuaged when she learned that Nataf, a close friend, would be photographing the shoot. Hutton posed with the minimalist bras peeking out from under button-down shirts and blazers worn with jeans: natural, effortless.
