Question 15

Q“Good afternoon! Please, tell me to what age a woman can carry a fashionable now leather biker jacket and jeans but at the same time won’t look trying to look younger?” Svetlyachok, modniy.tv website user.

Evelina Khromtchenko answers the question.

The point is that one leather biker jacket can differ greatly from another one, and the same with jeans. Imagine a grandmother, who puts on a pair of low waist jeans from under which are seen pink thongs with fake diamonds, combined with a leather biker jacket, tied up by belts (not so characteristic for this age) and the back of this leather jacket is decorated with a heart, for example painted by hand and accompanied with some lettering, usually in English (something like “I won’t forget mother native”)… Certainly, I wouldn’t recommend this kind of outfit to a 70 years old lady.
But in case this biker jacket is made of tweed fabric and in case these jeans are dark blue without any inclusions of pastes, an embroidery or collages, why not? If the waist of these jeans is on the right place, if the unsteady zone is reliably covered with a T-shirt made of the correct jersey, in case this biker jacket has only a hint on the main function of driving the motorcycle, and actually it is just an interestingly decorated jacket, the woman at any age can wear it. If such things are somehow additionally painted, by sexuality, as a rule, certainly they definitely have an age barrier after which they shouldn’t be carried. But here is a question: is it necessary to carry them even if haven’t reached this barrier yet?
