I used to volunteer at the LA County Museum of Art. During my time there, I saw the senior discount age upped twice. And we\u2019ve all seen that meme about being in <\/span>your 30s<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n In the 1980s, being in your 30s meant being a balding George Costanza from <\/span>Seinfeld<\/span><\/i>. Today, it means Timothee Chalamet (who is almost, but not quite 30).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n So what does <\/span>old man style<\/span> mean these days in the face of all of this?<\/span><\/p>\n I\u2019d say calling a man who is blessed enough to make it to his mid-60s and beyond is an older gent. But just because you\u2019re in that age range doesn’t mean you have to toss out every youthful thing in your closet. <\/span><\/p>\n Moreover, these days, your 50s are the new middle age, and your 40s are even young-adjacent. And <\/span>that <\/span><\/i>doesn\u2019t mean you should be putting off evaluating what garments worked in your 30s but may not work anymore.<\/span><\/p>\n Navigating fashion in the back half of life is especially important for <\/span>grown men<\/span><\/a> of modest height. Shortness is inherently youthful. We have to bring a balance to that. Men’s clothing and style<\/a> reflect personal identity, combining comfort with trends to create a unique look that suits various occasions and expresses individuality.<\/span><\/p>\n
