Fashion and the older man - style past 40 - Grey Fox scribbles in The Guardian

Monday, 27 January 2014

I thought I'd gather here links to some of my writing on The Guardian Fashion Blogs network. I'm doing this to make these posts available from here on Grey Fox and to ensure that what appears here is a more complete collection of articles on style and fashion for older men, men past 40 years of age - those of us in middle age. Some of these are revised versions of posts here on Grey Fox Blog.

Meet the bloggers, Grey Fox, the old blogger, goes large. Why I chose to write about older men's style here and in The Guardian.

Are men (especially older men) afraid of dressing well? Why is it that the man over forty is often reluctant to dress well?

Denim jeans and the middle-aged man Why shouldn't older men wear denims?

Where are the grey-haired men in advertising? Why do we see so few middle-aged, older, grey-haired men advertising menswear? Are we being ignored by the fashion industry?

Ageless style What suits the older man? How can the middle-aged man dress with style?

Shorts - an older man never grows out of them Shorts and the mature man. Older men are often criticised unfairly for wearing shorts. How can this be avoided?

Marks & Spencer Best of British collection An older man tries it on. Grey Fox emulates Oliver Cheshire.

    I wish I could look this good now, let alone when I'm older.

    Hi there Grey Fox,
    Great pair of Double Monk Strap shoes. Soo NOW. Seen in practically every men's clothing magazine and everywhere on line. A perfect shoe to add to a collection of tie-ups, slip-on, and dress boots. Perfect with a suit, jeans, or ever worn casual with shorts in Summer.
