🇬🇧 The style of people in their fifties

What should a person in their 50s wear? What style should (s)he adopt?

I'm Nycka, a stylist with decades of experience in the fashion industry and I work with personal image as a non-verbal communication tool. Personal style is also related to the individual maturation process. In this text I will talk about the style of people in their fifties.

Each person is a universe, and adult life is a continuation of the development process that we can consider starting when we are born. Every day we have opportunities to get to know ourselves, to review our beliefs, our preferences, our prejudices, fears and everything else.

A person in their fifties, like people in their forties, should already have a reasonable repertoire and emotional maturity. Not everyone does, but at that age they should. If you are a public person, a businessman or hold a leadership position, emotional maturity and repertoire are important for you to be professionally relevant. They are also important to guide your children, grandchildren and others to a more meaningful life and not be a boring person who cultivates habits that no longer have value in today's world.

It's no use talking about ageism if you act immaturely and don't take responsibility for your professional and style choices like an adult. If your image conveys immaturity, you are making the wrong choices. Maybe you lack self-esteem to invest in qualified guidance, like mine. Maybe it's just a lack of maturity.

In their fifties, the way people dress depends a lot on their emotional maturity, self-knowledge and self-esteem. A common mistake, especially among celebrities and artists who were successful when young for their beauty, is trying to maintain the appearance of when they were younger, without accepting the beauty that exists in maturity, without looking inward and observing new values ​​and new qualities that can be expressed through the way they dress, take care of their hair, etc. They seek an adolescent image and not a jovial image.

Having style is valuing what makes you unique and knowing how to use your appearance as a non-verbal communication tool. In your 50s you already have or should have enough self-awareness to have a different way of dressing by yourself, but that doesn't happen to everyone. And even among those who do, they are unlikely to master the use of personal image as a non-verbal communication tool. My guidance as your stylist can change that.

Sophistication is a desirable trait in this age group. People who are more self-aware tend to seek a more sophisticated personal image, in the sense that they value a personal image that has a value beyond aesthetics, that demonstrates their personality qualities, in addition to physical beauty.

Knowing how to use your appearance as a non-verbal communication tool will certainly contribute to your self-knowledge, your success in your career, in social and romantic relationships, the sophistication of your appearance and the clarity of your communication.
