British fashion designer Vivienne Westwood has revealed the secret to her youthful look, and it might surprise or irk you. Or both. The 76-year-old designer recently told reporters at a fashion show in Paris that she stays youthful by showering once a week.

“Don’t wash too much,” a report on the ‘Guardian’ read.

If that does not surprise you too much, her husband Andreas Kronthaler added: “She only takes a bath every week. That’s why she looks so radiant ... I only wash once a month.”
