Biography
During the 1960s and 1970s, Rodin worked as a model before transitioning into roles such as owning a boutique in Soho, serving as a buyer for Henri Bendel, and styling for Victoria's Secret, as well as contributing to Harper's Bazaar and Vogue.
In 2008, she launched her beauty brand, Rodin, from her kitchen in Chelsea. Originally centered on facial oils, the product line later grew to include hand creams, body oils, fragrances, and soaps. The company was purchased by Estée Lauder in 2014.
After stepping away from modeling for four decades, Rodin resumed her modeling career in her sixties, collaborating with labels like J.Crew and The Row. Recognized for her unique look—characterized by silver hair, large glasses, and vivid lipstick—she has attracted considerable media coverage and a dedicated following on social platforms.
