Philippe Dumas: a model in his sixties - his beard changed his life

Philippe Dumas - a model in the 60s

Although we associate modeling with youth, Philippe Dumas is proof that it's never too late for anything. Where there is a will there is a way. Philippe Dumas is a lawyer by education, but has worked in the film industry and advertising all his life, and is spending his third life as a photo model.

Just before he turned one 60 years, is Philippe Dumas decided to let it go grow a beard. This simple decision turned his life upside down. "I left my beard as it was and was sure it would be useless, but people liked it. A lot of them told me that, so I decided to become one model.”

It's never too late to make your dreams come true.
