The silver fox effect: our obsession with men who age well | melly_singer

It only takes a quick Google search to find lists of “celebrities who age gracefully”. What’s interesting, though, is that these lists are almost always overwhelmingly dominated by men: George Clooney, Patrick Dempsey, Hugh Jackman, Bruce Willis, and so on.

With so much copy devoted to women ageing gracefully, and much of it through thinly veiled threats of invisibility and fear mongering to buy product X , it seems only fair the experts share their advice on how men can bridge that gap between their 40s and middle age with aplomb. She says men often have outdated ideas of age-appropriate dressing. “As men’s fashion became more tailored and tapered to the body, a man would typically say, ‘I can’t wearbecause I am not 25.’ But we need to get out of this baggy fit, front-pleat, cuffed, shapeless silhouette from the early 2000s.”
