That depends on what you mean by "old." Many of the successful black models today have been modeling for decades and in that sense are older, age-wise (Naomi Campbell, Tyra Banks, Iman). However, there has never really been a huge demand in the fashion industry for models of color, especially black models. Many top designers refuse to use black models in their shows (with the exception of young models such as Chanel Iman), and it continues to be difficult for black models to break into the industry in this way. So black models are not getting "old" because they were never really in high demand to begin with. If anything, many black models are being excluded from the modeling industry and miss opportunities that often get passed to other ethnicites.
