Crawford appeared to suggest in an interview with United
Airlines magazine Hemispheres last week that she would quit
modeling when she turns 50 on Feb. 20.
But on Monday she wrote on her Instagram page that "not all
headlines tell the whole story."
"Every year, I tell my kids I'm retiring. It's a running joke in
our family. And yet every year, opportunities pop up that really
excite me. While it's true that I'm eager to shift my focus a
bit to concentrate on my businesses, friends and family — I'm
not making any final statements," Crawford wrote.
"I have loved being part of the fashion industry for the past 30
years — and if that time has taught me anything, it's this:
never say never," she added.
Crawford became one of the first and best-known supermodels in
the 1980s and 1990s, appearing on runways for the likes of
Chanel, Christian Dior and Valentino.
She stepped back from full-time modeling some 15 years ago, but
is currently the face of French fashion house Balmain's
spring/summer 2016 fashion campaign along with fellow veteran
supermodels Naomi Campbell and Claudia Schiffer.
