Your Size Changes

As you age, your fashion preferences change – and so does your sizing. So, remember that when our bodies evolve, it’s important to be mindful of the clothing we choose – not only for comfort, but for safety as well.

As we get older, our body sizes change and our general physique shrinks so it’s easy to fall into the habit of buying oversized clothes for comfort. However, injuries can happen if your clothing is too loose: sleeves could get hooked or feet could stumble on trousers that are too long.

At Country Collection, we understand this issue which is why we specialise in offering stylish, yet generous sizes for our older women's fashion. We pay close attention to customer feedback, ensuring that our sizes are tailored to flatter, without getting in the way of your daily activities.

Choose Fuss-Free Clothing

Clothes for elderly ladies should be easy to wear, which means no garments that have small fiddly zips or frustrating buttons. As we all know, dexterity and hand mobility can deteriorate with age, making fastening and unfastening these features more difficult.

To prevent stressful and time-consuming situations, Country Collection offers a variety of fuss-free clothing that’s comfortable and convenient. This range includes front-fastening bras, pull-on skirts, wrap around cardigans, and open back nightdresses that offer superb comfort as well as ease of dressing.


Add Layers to Your Outfit

The sophisticated layered look is an essential fashion tip for elderly women as it provides great style and warmth – and it works for everyone. By adding or removing layers depending on the weather, you can always look great and stay comfortable while transitioning between warm and cold environments with ease. 

Layering your clothing allows you to create chic, unique looks while providing the necessary warmth to keep you comfortable. Layering is a great way to add depth and interest to your outfits. Combine different textures and fabrics to create a stylish and practical ensemble.

Find Your Own Style

To identify your personal style, it’s important to embrace key trends and create a look that reflects your personality. Search for pieces that make you feel confident and comfortable, then you can easily find your signature style.

You can find inspiration for clothes for elderly ladies from our models’ outfits and try to incorporate a variety of patterns and materials into the wardrobe. Even leisure trousers and a top can be made stylish with a silky scarf, or a plain cotton top and skirt looks on trend with the right accessories.

Dressing well when you are over 70 is about embracing your personal style, feeling confident, and prioritising comfort without sacrificing elegance. Style has no expiration date and often, women in their 70s have the wisdom, confidence, and self-awareness to wear clothes beautifully and with intention. Exclusive prints, an uplifting colour palette and a focus on easy-to-wear styling whatever your age. While neutrals are always a great choice, don't be afraid to experiment with colour. Bright hues can add a touch of vibrancy to your wardrobe. Consider incorporating colourful accessories like scarves, jewellery, or handbags.
