Joan Collins, 93, Showcases The Ultimate Effortless Resort Look For Older Women
Looking for fashion inspiration for your next vacation in the sun? Let Joan Collins' super stylish resort look inspire you. The 93-year-old actor and author shared a snippet of her vacation with her husband in France's Saint Tropez to Instagram, and fans were absolutely enamored with her look. She paired a breezy zebra print maxi dress with a wide-brimmed hat that was both gorgeous and perfect for keeping her skin safe from the sun.
It's the perfect resort look, not just because it's super comfortable, but because it's rocking animal prints, which are in vogue, while steering clear of the clothing print trends that are firmly outdated in 2026. Zebra print is extra appealing because its monochromatic palette makes it really versatile. It can look chic and effortless with minimal styling and can be the perfect base if you intend to dress it up a little more than Collins did.
But beyond the outfit, her accessories were in line with the jewelry trends that are perfect for older women in 2026. She ditched matching sets, and instead went for a modern cross necklace and statement earrings. It might be impossible to rate a look as perfect, but there's no denying that Collins nailed all the key points.
Joan Collins could have improved her makeup with a few tweaks
There's no doubt that Joan Collins absolutely nailed the vacation look, but her makeup wasn't as solid as it could have been. The actor rightly chose to keep her look simple with full coverage foundation, glossy pink lips, bold eyeliner that went over and under her eyes with a bit of wing, and super casual brows that complemented the simplicity of her outfit, but the application wasn't a slam dunk.
Her close-up selfie revealed that her foundation didn't give her eye area the coverage it deserved. Some of the key tips to keep in mind when applying foundation to mature skin involve using the right tools and following up with concealer. That helps to ensure full coverage, and concealer is perfect for any areas that need extra coverage.
Another part of Collins' look that could have been improved are her brows and liner. She chose super-thin arched brows, which really worked for her face shape, but she didn't fill them in evenly. Whether you're going for skinnies or fluffy thick eyebrows like Yolanda Hadid's 2026 Cannes look, the key is to fill them in gradually with a precise pencil and short upward flicks. But both the liner and brows look like they've wilted after extended wear time, which is a good reminder to strategize your travel makeup and pick products that can hold up to sun, humidity, and a whole day of activity.
