The best looks from the Advance Style blog

Back in 2008, Ari Seth Cohen began photographing the most stylish women to grace the streets of New York City – but with one caveat, he decided to focus exclusively on the older set: ladies and gentleman in their 60s, 70s and beyond. It may have been considered a bold move at the time, but as evidenced by the explosive popularity of his blog Advanced Style since those early years, Cohen was tapping into a repository of sartorial wisdom that can only come with age. His pictures, but more importantly the ladies behind the photos, showcased an age-defying beauty, grace and of course, style, that challenged conceptions about ageing. The photos became so popular Advanced Style was turned into both a book and a documentary. It just goes to show that over-60s are the real style-setters! From big accessories to even bigger personalities, here’s a collection of our favourite fashionable moments from the Advanced Style blog.
