They wear the latest fashions with the most up-to-date accessorise(配饰).Yet these are girls in their teens or twenties but women in their sixties and seventies.A gengration which would once only wear old-fashioned clothes is now favouring the same high street looks worn by those half their age.
Professor Julia Twigg,a social policy expert ,said ,“Women over 75 are now shopping for clothes more frequently than they did when they were young in the 1960s .In the 1960s buying a coat for a woman was a serious matter .It was an expensive item that they would purchase only every three or four years — now you can pick one up at the supermarket whenever you wish to .Fashion is a lot cheaper and people get tired of things more quickly .”
Professor Twigg analysed family expending(支出)data and found that while the percentage of spending on clothes and shoes by women had stayed around the same—and 5 or 6 per cent of spending—the amount of clothes bought had risen sharply.
The professor said,“Clothes are now 70 per cent cheaper than they were in the 1960s because of the huge expansion of production in the Far East.In the 1960s Leeds was the heart of the British fashion industry and that was where most of the clothes came from,but now almost all of our clothes are sourced elsewhere.Everyone is buying more clothes but in general we are not spending more money on them.”
Fashion designer Angela Barnard ,who runs her own fashion business in London ,said older women were much more affected by celebrity(名流) style than in previous years .
She said ,“When people see stars such as Judi Dench and Helen Mirren looking attractive and fashionable in their sixties ,they want to follow them .Older women are much more aware of celebrities .There’s also the boom in TV programmes showing people how they can change their look,and many of my older customers do yoga to stay in shape well in their fifties .When I started my business a few years ago .my older customers tended to be very rich,but now they are what I would call ordinary women .My own mother is 61 and she wears the latest fashions in a way she would never have done ten years ago.”

他们穿着最时尚的衣服和最前沿的配饰.这么搭配的是二八年华的少女而不是那些七老八十的老太太.而今一度只穿过时衣服的那一代人,如今热衷于他们小辈才会穿着的流行服饰.
社会学专家Julia Twigg 教授说:“如今年龄超过75岁的女性,比起二十世纪六十年代,在她们年轻时更频繁地买衣服.在那时,女性买新衣服是一件大事.这是一项很大的开销,一般每三年或者四年才会做.而现在,你可以去店铺里随便买你喜欢的.时尚变得便宜了,同时人们追求新鲜的念头也越来越多.”
教授xx分析了家庭支出的数据发现,尽管女性购置衣服鞋帽的比例保持在百分之五或六,但是购买的数量已经大大增加了.
教授说:“因为远东地区的出产的产品激增,现今的衣服比二十世纪六十年代便宜了百分之七十.在1960s,利兹是英国时尚工业的中心,几乎所有的衣服出自于利兹,但是现在我们的衣服基本上都来自于其他地方.人们买了更多的衣服,却花了更少的钱.”在伦敦拥有她自己的时尚设计公司的时尚设计师 Angela Barnard 这样说,她也说如今的老太太也比以前更容易被名人效应所影响,当人们发现年过半百的Judi Dench 或者 Helen Mirren依然光鲜亮丽,时尚抢眼的时候,人们就会想去追逐那种潮流.年纪越大的女性越注重名气、品牌.那些教人们怎么化妆打扮的电视节目也越来越热门,许多年纪大的人为了保持身材而学瑜伽.几年前当我开办我的公司的时候,我的很多客户在那时想做个有钱人,但是今天,我想,我会叫她们作 普通的女人.我母亲今年61岁,她打扮得非常时尚,而这,如果十年前,她绝对不会做的事.
虽说水平有限,但应该差不多了.辛苦.
