Folk-music badass Joni Mitchell is not just 71 years old; she's the newest model in Saint Laurent's latest campaign.

It appears a growing trend in both beauty and fashion is to feature older women as the face of luxury, high-end brands. Mitchell yet again proves beauty is ageless.

The photos of Mitchell come as part of Saint Laurent's continuing Saint Laurent Music Project program.

Saint Laurent tweeted the following photos from Mitchell's home in Bel Air, California.

She wears the brand's “folk tunic” and couldn't possibly look more flawless.

We're super stoked to see each of these fabulous icons landing high-profile roles in fashion and beauty campaigns.

The beauty of these women is timeless and these refreshing campaigns unveil a much-needed step toward a more inclusive body- and beauty-positive community.

And as for Joni, well... you go, girl.
