When you are 20-30-40 years old, life is in full swing, you want colors and brightness. And not only in life, feelings and sensations. Each person is able to create their own present, set the mood and rhythm for the whole day. Youth is associated with brightness and emotionality. It is these features that can be traced in the wardrobes of young ladies. Middle-aged women try to be more restrained both emotionally and in the selection of outfits for their images. However, they do not always succeed in this, quite often notes of fun and mischief slip through and add color to life.

But what about women after 60? Are their wardrobes doomed to boredom and dullness? Unfortunately, modern stylists and fashion designers pay much attention to youth and freshness, sometimes forgetting about maturity and experience. But ladies in adulthood can also look stylish, sophisticated and elegant. It is enough just to carefully approach the filling of your wardrobe and create images.

Basic wardrobe 2022

If young girls do not really think about what must be present in their wardrobes, then fashion for older women after 60 is more concise and demanding.When going to work, going for a walk, meeting with friends, some kind of solemn event, to the theater, you need to approach the choice of clothes with maximum attention and care. Properly selected things create a single ensemble that reflects the sense of taste of women.

What does the basic wardrobe for older ladies consist of? For those over 60, stylists recommend the following selection of basic elements:

  1. dresses for every day (about 3-5 pieces of different styles, styles and colors);
  2. evening dresses (mainly made of silk or brocade);
  3. skirts for everyday use (as in the case of dresses, you should choose several different options);
  4. trousers (straight cut, wide cut, made of light fabrics for summer, made of dense fabrics for the cold season, an economical version of clothing for all occasions);
  5. classic jeans (two pairs are enough);
  6. jackets, cardigans, jackets;
  7. sweaters, jumpers, thin cashmere blouses;
  8. stylish blouses, elegant shirts;
  9. raincoat or jacket (better to have 2 different options for different occasions);
  10. coat, fur coat, sheepskin coat (depending on the preferences and tastes of the woman).

When choosing clothes, you must adhere to the rule: classic, conciseness, femininity and elegance. These criteria are taken into account not only in the styles and colors of robes, but also in the compatibility of different elements of clothing in a single ensemble.

Choose a style

Clothing for those over 60 should be both simple and elegant, concise and feminine. The right cut will emphasize the style of the lady. In the elegant outfits of women of mature age, you can see the refined and refined style of the Queen of England or the romance of a modern Frenchwoman.

Straight-cut dresses, mid-rise dress pants, below-the-knee skirts, a stylish, perfect thigh-length cardigan, a feminine trench coat, an elegant cashmere coat, a muted cocktail dress for an anniversary or other occasion, and much more - these are the items of clothing that you can meet in the wardrobe of older ladies.

Shading with color

The color scheme must be fully age-appropriate. Therefore, the use of some bright and flashy colors in clothes will look not only defiant, but also inappropriate for a pensioner. For women over 60, discreet, calm colors are suitable. At the same time, do not oversaturate your wardrobe with black things.

Black color has the peculiarity of emphasizing the pallor of the skin. Of course, this color has a place to be presented among the clothes of the fair sex, who are over 60, for example, in elegant straight-cut trousers or a midi-length skirt. At the same time, stylists recommend playing black with a combination of brighter elements, creating a single ensemble. A pastel-colored blouse or jumper will harmoniously dilute the blackness and make the image more pleasant and soft for the general perception.

To look stylish and appropriate for your age, you should choose things in the following colors: various shades of brown and gray, bright blue, muted blue, terracotta, burgundy, wine, cherry, mint, lemon, yellow, beige, milky, gray-white, pastel apricot , soft pink and others.

In one image, layering of colors should be avoided, one or two colors are enough. Women over 60 have excellent style and taste. Therefore, clothes with bright and colorful prints are not suitable for them.You can look at things with geometric patterns or prints in the form of ornaments. It is important that such drawings on fabrics look harmonious and not defiant, then the female audience “over 60” will look decent.

We take into account the height and type of figure

When the age is already over 60, then you have to pay attention to all the little things. It is especially important to take into account the type of appearance, physique, height. The appearance color type plays an important role in choosing the right color scheme for your wardrobe. Ladies of short stature should not wear cropped trousers that visually take a few more centimeters of height.

Also, for short women, elegant cardigans or jackets with an elongated cut, approximately to the middle of the thigh, are suitable.

To date, online stores offer a pretty good range of clothes for mature ladies. There are various sizes (ranging from petite to sizes for curvaceous ladies). According to statistics, size 62 is considered quite popular. In addition, there are models for women of various heights: for a height of 160 cm and above.

What style do you prefer

Stylish and trendy clothing for 60s and older combines chic and elegance. More and more attention is paid to the classics and tradition in outfits. Femininity and romance are also inherent both in individual elements of clothing and in images created by ladies. Despite the classical direction, the things of women of mature age are distinguished by a certain severity. This can be seen in the colors and styles of the outfits, indicating the style and taste of the lady.

What do we give up

As life dictates its own rules, so fashion has some age limits. Age gives restrictions in terms of the use of certain colors, styles, models.After 60 years, it is important to be able to emphasize your strengths and at the same time skillfully hide your flaws.

Unfortunately, the skin no longer has the elasticity and firmness that it had in youth. Therefore, you should not expose the décolleté area to the public. Cutouts on dresses, blouses and jumpers should be of such a size as to draw the attention of outsiders to the posture and sophistication of the figure, and not to flaws in appearance. Scarves will skillfully hide some kind of flabbiness of the skin, which is possible in adulthood. Today, accessory stores offer their customers an incredibly rich selection of various thin scarves, stoles and even shawls.

You should also carefully approach the choice of the length of dresses and skirts. The maxi length, as well as the length above the knee, are not suitable for women who are already over 60. It is better to give preference to midi length outfits.

The sleeve is another important point when choosing clothes. Most women will need to ditch short sleeves. It is better to look at options with long sleeves or three-quarter sleeves.

Shoes and accessories

The integrity of the image consists not only of clothes, but also of properly selected shoes and accessories. The main criterion for choosing shoes is comfort. That's right, shoes should be as comfortable as possible. Therefore, if it is convenient for someone to walk in high-heeled shoes, then why not wear such a model of shoes.

The ideal shoe option for women over 60 is shoes with a steady heel of medium height (usually 5-7 cm of heels). However, outfits can be different, therefore, shoes in the wardrobes of women of mature age should be present in different styles. Stylish sneakers or moccasins are suitable for jeans.Recently popular ballet flats will also find a response in the hearts of women from 60 years and older. Of course, at any age there are people who prefer extravagance and unusual bows. Today, it is hardly possible to surprise anyone with sneakers or tractor-soled boots, even if the age has crossed the mark of 60 years.

Maturity is the age when it is appropriate to wear hats, veils, stoles, shawls and elegant scarves. Having diversified her wardrobe with such accessories, a woman has the opportunity to create interesting images almost daily.

If we talk about jewelry, then there are also no special frames. Some stylists say that you need to stick to minimalism, while others, on the contrary, recommend wearing stylish massive products. However, they are unanimous in the fact that women after 60 can safely combine items made of precious metals and jewelry of an elite class in one ensemble.

Useful tips, thanks, this is what suits us "oldies".And I'm glad that the black color, which I don't like, and it doesn't suit me, doesn't take the leading place here. Soft colors are great!

For a Russian pensioner, it is difficult financially to take care of herself with dignity and dress decently. A trip to the hairdresser's "modestly" from 2 thousand rubles, at least sometimes updating clothes is also not very cheap. We spin as we can!

Thank you, but I would like to see a wardrobe for women whose height is 155-150 and below, but 58-62 sizes, believe me, there are not so few of us.

Start losing weight and eat less, as the great Maya Plisetskaya said.

Well, not everyone is as lucky as you. There are people with genetic completeness, and where should they go? Plisetskaya was thin all her life.

That's what I didn't see.

I'm over 60 - I wear jeans and leather pants, oversized clothes, sneakers and martens. 60-year-old women are active members of society, not old women.

Completely agree with you. 60 years is not a sentence.

At 70, I don’t want to wear black or faded clothes at all, they don’t suit me and depress me. I need color and so that they don’t constantly talk about sagging and old age. As Evelina Khromchenko says, there is only one fashion for everyone, there is no separate fashion for women and "old women".

Well done! Now is our time. What we want, we wear. The main thing is that we like our reflection in the mirror and cheer up. I do not believe that there are no shops with inexpensive clothes. A lot of inexpensive fashionable clothes are sewn by Uzbeks. Look! It's not a pity to throw it away at the end of the season.

I don't think it's right to buy clothes from Uzbeks and then throw them away at the end of the season. This is money down the drain, and outwardly the woman looks "so-so". We are not rich enough to buy very cheap things. I am 74, height 153 cm, weight 62 kg. I try to buy good things (even if only one or two a year), but they last a very long time and everyone says that I dress well and look great.So, dear women, do not lose heart. There would be a desire, but to look at our well-deserved years and we can do well !!!
