Stylist Tells Us Clothing Colors And Patterns That Make You Look Older
According to fashion stylist and lifestyle expert Joseph Katz, who provides style commentary on his "The Katz Walk" YouTube series, classic prints like florals, paisley, and checks can work for or against you. The intricate details of each pattern will determine whether the garment makes you look older (like ditsy florals) or younger (like vintage paisley). In an exclusive conversation with Glam, Katz, who also offers Skype Style sessions, explains that while high-contrast colors and deeper palettes can land well in some cases, there are times when lighter color schemes are the most flattering in these prints.
Colors and patterns certainly count for a lot, but Katz stresses that fabrics should also come into consideration when creating a younger look. "Choose lighter fabrics, such as silk or jersey, which offer great drape and movement, rather than overly thick or heavy materials that can feel dated or bulky," he adds. "These details help create a look that feels contemporary and elegant."
