Yet here I am, with not one but SEVERAL reasons why women’s clothing sucks.
You should think that with all these choices we have, there’s nothing to complain about.
We are blessed with are a plethora of choices, when it boils down to women’s clothing. Notice that industry standards for clothing sizes are voluntary, said Forbes. Basically, which comes in specific sizes on the basis of waist and inseam length, women’s sizes are completely illogical and meaningless, unlike men’s clothing. As a result, the main reason why I have only two jeans pairs, and basically only wear leggings, is since I hate shopping for jeans. Next are the sizes. They’ll advertise a really new bra by showing dimly lit women sauntering around on a bed. Take Victoria’s Secret for instance. They’re rarely advertised for women, not only are they priced like they are dipped in gold and stitched by Jesus Christ. Conforming to a really new study in the International Journal of Fashion Design, american women are on average between a misses size 1618, or what’s considered a plussize 20W, Technology and Education. Top-notch feature on R29 to date!
Her skin just glows.
Oh, Beatrix -you are my newest and most powerful inspiration to continue to apply sunscreen daily.
Still not there. However, I’ve noticed on The Sartorialist as well, that the older subjects look straight through the camera. That said, I have been practicing that look. I love the way de Menilpierces the lens with her gaze. I love seeing mature women who really know who to express their own personal identities with confidence and panache! Of course I love it! Inspiring! My mother and I checked it out gether and enjoyed it very much.
Thank you a lot for doing this! Thanks very much for showing that high style is possible at any age, and that it transcends the latest trendy young things. It’s nice to know that you can be fashionable at any age. Notice, very beautiful women. Really just like this article, have more articles really like this. Now look. Get sick tired of always seeing teen and young adults who have no fashion type sense. One can be stylish at any age. With that said, this feature is wonderful, and a huge encouragement to those of us pushing 60, 70, and so on. While liking how you look, and expressing yourself as YOU, not an attempt to conform to some destructive cultural ideal, it seems that style now is yourself. On p of that, my MIL turns 70 this Oct. She’s still got it I can tell you that, as a former model and beauty queen.
I love seeing women can’t be a goal. For example, I’m grateful to see those who’ve accomplished it. Keep reading. I’ll never be 18 again. Women in this story inspire me more than any up and coming model can.
For example, love the advice on sunglasses and Christophe de Menil’s stingray necklace is downright badass! Love this! What a cool article to post! Love to see more of her! Let me tell you something. Style is timeless, these ladies are fearless! Now please pay attention. So it is awesome.
I love that most of the women used blackish in their looks.
Grey is always a great base color, chic and sophisticated, as a staple.
Love this. They have life lessons to share, opinions that have developed over time, and most importantly a feeling of selfawareness that is almost impossible to obtain as a teenager or 20 something. Oh my gosh. Also, I seek for to read/see more! Mostly there’s a lot more inspiration to be found in those who have lived through far more than your reader. It’s a well I love this article!! Do you know an answer to a following question. I can not see what’s wrong with calling them old people isnt the point that theyre not striving to pretend they’re younger or sugarcoat it?
How wonderful to come home and link from my email to this slideshow and the wonderful comments.
I’m 55 and needed this.
Good to know I’m not alone in refusing to abandon my love for style as I age. It’s so easy to give up style when all we see in the media is girls in their teens and twenties playing at being fashion icons. Essentially, love Mary’s quote. I have a secret obsession for older, stylish women as they truly exude power and beauty. So true! Essentially, they’re style is a honest reflection of their experiences and life. I hope I’m this stylish when I’m hitting 70! Thanks Ari, for showing that style just gets better with age.
