How To Dress Like An Italian Woman Over 50+ | Style tips

[@AnaVogue]

Glad you watched 💛I added a list of products in the video description for you to check out!

[@Olaias1]

Yes they do. French women seem to wear a uniform.

[@emmalopez3744]

Loved it. Those long coats truly are beautiful and look amazing.

[@Dsky40]

Not to sound antiquated, but as a man, I appreciate the effort women put into turning out their best. Always compliment a woman on her efforts, because a lot of care has gone into a look and they always seem to have fun dressing. I had an extremely elegant mother, who insisted that we always looked our best. Even to this day at 53 years old, every little detail of my over all appearance is important. Shaving, bow-tie, scarves, over coat etc etc…..great video.

[@MRSASUSTAO]

As a woman, I appreciate the same effort from men.

[@azlynzzz5]

Sir are you taken?😅Just kidding! Thank you for valuing us women this way 🤗🙏🌸.

[@etiquetteconnoisseur6184]

The lower classed French do not dress well, however, the wealthy ones do.

[@HarpistJoanna]

I love it! Bring back the antiquated beauty of being well-groomed and well-dressed. As a youngish woman (39 ☺️) I appreciate seeing people looking well dressed. Several years ago, at a bagel shop, I noticed an elderly man, probably every bit of 80+ who looked so sharp from top to bottom. Neat as a pin, well-groomed with a nice watch, I was impressed. I wish I would’ve told him so. Every one of us has the opportunity to put out a little beauty, creativity and joy into the world by how we present ourselves.

[@Scheherazad100]

I feel most men do admire a woman who takes pride in her appearance. I receive compliments from both men and women when I'm in public. I always dress up when I leave the house, even if just going for coffee.❤

[@bernadettedevereaux8694]

I don’t want to start a battle but Italian women outdo French women by a mile. I say this as an American woman living in Michigan who especially loves watching KZbin videos of street-style in Milan. Maybe it’s because I grew up in the 1950s but I am nostalgic for the days when women looked put together whenever they appeared in public. Clothes fit better then because many women knew how to sew and made their own clothes. I know that those days are gone but I hung onto my sewing basket and sewing machine so I can do some of my own alterations, I have a good steam iron and a full length mirror for final inspection before departing from home.

[@edithpfaffli8955]

Sorry, this is about clothes not about style

[@penelope5500]

Yes, I remember in the 50's women going into town were in a smart suit, or dress, hat, gloves, heels. They looked fabulous. Sometimes I wonder if something like that will ever come back. Probably not, at least in my lifetime.

[@DMG64]

I absolutely agree. 😊

[@lawanyaarvind2810]

Wow..respect for you

[@TheresaReale]

Your tips are great...I have already incorporated the long camel trench coat into my wardrobe..... even my husband likes the look, and he doesnt comment on much! I will be looking to add some tailored trousers and silk blouses as well. I do already have some nice silk scarfs, which i have been using for years and have always loved the flair they add!! I will b looking forward to more of your videos!!

[@gemmina69]

I am an Italian 55 year-old woman and I am so pleased about your video. I agree on everything, I love old money style, quality over quantity. The white-haired women you show are very chic and refined, all of us will age, hopefully in this way, with class and elegance, which is innate most of the times. Thank you.

[@katalinmcewan]

I’m Hungarian, living in the UK. We seem to share the same aesthetic.

[@ohsostylish60]

Yes, I find that is innate in most Italian women ☺️

[@kaynethersole8106]

I love Italian styling, the best in the world I would say.

[@FurEliseTX]

Thank you for this video. I understand what I must do. Quality and craftsmanship are the goals!

[@esterambalu6828]

I love your tips 👌I love the way they dress up.please keep sharing the videos 👌👌👌❤❤❤

[@gretevandoren9688]

My favorite tip are the dresses you used be able to buy at any Tuscan market that came to any small town when I was a child in the 70s and 80s visiting my aunt. To this day, thanks to my mother and aunt, I prefer a beautiful dress for every day…even going to the supermarket. Mostly women my age wear workout clothes. I live in dresses.

[@HarpistJoanna]

I love dresses, too. It makes me sad that so many young, beautiful women shlump around in ugly sweats and hoodies and crocs. A dress is so flattering, feminine and can be very comfortable and practical, too.

[@jillchristy3755]

I was truly hoping one of the Top 10 Tips would be choosing the A-line skirt or dress! No mention of dresses despite showing several of them with silk blouses and long coats.

[@Stephen-bg8ol]

As a man, I thank you for making America more beautiful.🙏

[@jrepub4958]

[@velvetindigonight]

Fab vid love the style of older Italian women. Thank you for breaking it down :)

[@PatriceStine]

I love the silk blouse & scarf idea! Seems to add such a feminine touch!

[@nancyreynolds7267]

I am glad I found you on the Web. Your video is very well done it says it all. Yes, Italian women dress beautifully and you sure know how to show us their style as well as how you apply to yourself. You are a very classy lady.

[@maureennkwe4178]

I loved everything about Italian style it me to know where to fix my wardrobe style

[@margaritaparanetti5469]

I definitely love italian style and italian women!!! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@nolabobo1]

the first time I went to Italy - the first thing I noticed as a teenaged girl was how FABULOUS the older women looked! No American women were put together like these sexy, vibrant Italian women in their 50's and 60's. Their CONFIDENCE was their greatest asset of all! But the one thing I disagree with the video about is - to this day - they do NOT wear light "natural" makeup - they always accent their eyes and are SO good with their own makeup. it is a very glamorous look ( but never overdone or too much ) Very "Sophia Loren "- who always wore black eyeliner and had a smoky sultry eye. I never see too bright colors on these lovely women ( or too bland) they know their faces and how to bring out their best features - usually their eyes and lips. And they really know how to accessorize! big, beautiful, rich-looking classic pieces. Just STUNNING!

[@jillchristy3755]

I have always loved ALL things Italian...unsure why, but I can spot an Italian bag in a long row of bags! It has cost me a fortune over the years, but they are still my favorite bags, small or large, and I adore them! (I do have a few shoes from Spain that are made exceptionally well, too!)

[@zoyakarpenko8344]

I adore Italian style, and after this video I will have one silk blouse and tailored trousers!!!😊 Thanks, greetings from Minsk, Belarus!❤❤❤

Fabulous video. Thanks. I recently discovered scarves and cashmere. Nice to know Im on the right track. Now to work on that always looking polished. Time to up my game. You’ve inspired me.

[@weinimaashio1545]

Classy thank you my dear ❤

[@gabiirimia5850]

I adore women over 50 who are flirtatious, regardless of hair color. The important thing is that they are not ridiculous and that everyone wears their age with elegance, femininity and grace. If she is well-groomed, feminine and elegant, even if she uses a walker or cane, she is the same woman you can admire regardless of age.

[@makenocommento-kj4gq]

@gab5880, Your Comment is 100% Correct, Italiano woman are bellissimo

[@classicG342]

Yes, taking care of oneself and dressing clean, neat and carrying oneself confidently will get one very far in life, no matter the age. I sense people respect the effort required for women to bother doing some rituals required to look great from morning-through-evening each day, and that is what really gets peoples' attention in a world that really is more slovenly and too casual than it should be (and is reflected in peoples' behaviors externally - after all, how many people would be foul-mouthed and have rude manners while wearing elegant clothes? whether young men or young women? Not many, I would suspect and that is why when uniforms are required in certain inner city schools the children outperform their peers in public schools in the USA.

[@jillchristy3755]

@@classicG342 Agreed~! I have said this for years. When my parents went to baseball games in the 1950's in America, they dressed up. Daddy often wore a narrow tie :--) and Mother wore a skirt or dress that her mother had made for her. It was perfectly tailored! I said then, if we had the same respect for players, cohorts, spouses, friends, and even enemies, today, we would be a much more civilized country. But instead, we sit at home and chat with people online in our slouchy clothes and make ridiculously harsh comments to people we've never met saying things we would never say face-to-face. I'm teaching my grandson to dress and behave differently.

[@noraderbedrossian4352]

The best video I watched on You Tube about style. I practice most of the ideas you mentioned. Thank you Ana Vogue. Would like to watch more.

[@zielonazabka5382]

I love good quality clothes ❤

[@juliea.tackettmph8349]

I especially love handbags made in Italian leather as well as sunglasses by Italian designers. Having visited Rome, I noticed that both women and men were upscale dressers, wearing clothes that were well-made. Nothing slouchy or messy!

[@darnellscollier]

Thank you.

[@craftbird1]

I love scarves

[@lameiser]

I have heritage from Sicily, so I am an Italian woman. I have been to Positano, Italy, and I wear dresses always. I wear natural makeup, get my hair done weekly, and adore silk blouses and tailored clothing. I have a signature scent, Shalimar, which I have worn since I was sixteen, and I have several special pieces that I inherited that I use with my outfits. I also have many cashmere ponchos in neutral colors. I wear alpaca capes and have two special Irish coats for winter. I have yet to find the perfect raincoat--still looking.

[@lauradutton6048]

Thank you. I enjoyed the tips, especially the one about the trousers. I live in Texas where it gets quite hot so I often wear looser fit pants but I could definitely buy a lightweight fitted trouser. Time to take my look up a notch! You have inspired me.

[@maryrankin9869]

Loved this video. My mom has Italion heritage and has taught me some of these important tips. Now that I am 66 I am more than ever determined to get it right. I look forward to your videos. Not sure how I found it this evening. Thank you so much.

[@angelatrester3330]

Love this video. I love dressing in an elegant style and you are very good at showing us how to do just that. I will be looking for a good pair of tailored pants, adding some silk blouses and some basic cashmere sweaters. I also love your glasses. I am wanting to start wearing glasses more often and not my contacts all the time. Your black classic eye glasses are so chic.

[@classicG342]

Oh, so pleased to find and subscribe to this channel. Finally, we older ladies get some attention here (not found on other fashion channels!). I enjoy all the tips you mention and having been in Italy often over the years, I can attest that they are accurate perceptions and very helpful. I still have a TODS tote bag (now 22 years old and in mint condition); it is in a taupe color and I just love it. Hopefully, TODS is still "quiet luxury" today - if not, I still love the Italian leather quality of those bags and of course, the shoes. In fact, a video on shoes for older women and accessories such as jewelry may be helpful as well, for those of us not up-to-date on perhaps the latest European fashions for those of us who like the "quiet elegance". Thank you for posting this episode. I look forward to more videos and will definitely start watching all of your past videos as well.

As an Italian living in America, I am never without my long hair always fixed when I go out, small gold earrings, a touch of mauve lipstick for my smile, my scarf on my leather handbag and comfortable leather pointed flats or kitten heels. Feeling beautiful is a tradition in my family, from the women who have taught me to be grateful for who am and for each beautiful day I’m given.

Tips for trousers: have the side pockets sawn shut, it will give a sleek silhouette and a very polished look with no pocket bulges.

In the mid 80's I spent a month in Rome. Lots of times I would sit on the Spanish Steps on watch the fashion show. There were so many elegant Roman women, dressed up and walking in heels! Many times a man would be carrying their packages. I am so happy I was able to experience that. It has stayed with me all these years. I have traveled throughout Europe and no other fashion experience has even come close!

[@kgold5962]

I've been to Paris numerous times and I've been to Italy twice. It is my personal opinion that the stylish Italian women outshine the Parisienne women. Both are very classy but the Italian women have something extra. A certain je ne sais quoi, if you will. Thanks for an inspiring video.

[@classicG342]

I have to agree, I noticed many expensively dressed women in Paris who had very unkempt, even greasy hair. Sometimes publicly sniff those hairy armpits while wearing sleeveless dresses, and then reach into their handbag, pull out a parfum bottle and commence to spraying both 'pits' liberally - all while strolling with their elegant beaux!

Where you have to showel the snow for an hour before you can get out of your driveway or a house??? Thank you!

French and Italian women have a little different style. At sweet sixteen with 66 years of experience I guess my Italian DNA inherited from my father explains my style. I take tips from both French and Italian women. Simplicity is the key. Though there are times I break out the more creative side of my personality. Everyday is a special day so celebrate it I always leave the house dressed up. I do it for me, however I do attract a lot of attention. I live in a beach community environment that includes a variety of immigrant too from many countries, therefore my polished style does get attention. I've been this way with my fashion style since a teenager. I stood out there too in a rural town of 1,500 people. It's my Brand and I love my sense of fashion. Young men even pursue me at 82 years young. I've been compartmentalized byy men of all ages, women, too, as "hot" at 82 It's a curse and a blessing.❤❤❤❤❤
