71.
The Hollywood icon was chosen by the world famous tyre company ahead of a
bevy of younger beauties.
Loren wears a see-through black dress and diamonds in the shot, which has
been described as "very tasteful".
The actress - who has previously turned down dozens of offers to do
revealing photo shoots - agreed to do the calendar because of its legendary
reputation.
Loren is quoted in Britain's Daily Telegraph newspaper as saying: "I enjoyed
myself while posing. It was as if I was a little girl again."
It had been rumoured the Italian beauty would pose naked for the calendar.
But her publicist, Enrico Lucherini, is quoted in Britain's Daily Mail
newspaper as saying: "Sophia is in the Pirelli calendar but she is certainly
not nude.
"In the Sixties she had hundreds of offers to pose nude but she turned them
all down. But she still looks fantastic now.
"She will be 72 next birthday and she still has a figure that would be the
envy of women half her age, but she would never pose naked."
