What Would You Like to Tell the Fasion Industry

2008-05-05T16:57:18Z

Having trouble finding styles you like? Tired of being invisible (as in very few models we can relate to?)Do we need some breakthrough stylin’ for our 50+Fabulous selves? I would be happy to tell the fashion industry what you want. Just let me know what’s bugging you about what you see in stores and in magazines.

Do you have to try on 10 pairs of pants to find one that fits?

I hate three-way mirrors, taking bundles of clothes into the dressing room to try on, spending all that time, and walking away with maybe one garment! I profiled Cricket Lee this month and she has taken on the fashion industry, trying to get them to adopt a standardized fit system! How great would that be? Once you knew your size, you could order on-line with confidence and only spend time in a dressing room to see if you liked the combinations you put together. Wouldn’t that be fantastic.

Would you like to see the fashion industry adopt standardized sizes? Please let me know if you agree…Yes or No.

What are the beauty and fashion challenges you face at 50, 60 & over?

It is no longer enough to consult with sales associates at cosmetic counters or clothing stores. They most often do not have the expertise necessary to address our needs at 50 and over.
