The Stars of “Advanced Style”<\/p><\/div>\n

Take New York Times<\/em> street fashion photographer Bill Cunningham, add some Joan Rivers, Oprah, and Dr. Oz, and you\u2019ve got the formula for the documentary Advanced Style<\/em> (trailer here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Photographer Ari Seth Cohen profiles seven fashionable ladies \u201cof a certain age\u201d (60s through 90s) whose sense of color, textures, and bold accessories (clunky cuff bracelets, enormous earrings, and oversize rings and eyewear) he discovered on the streets of Manhattan. Amazing photos of one of them\u2014Tziporah Salamon<\/a>\u2014are included in this 40+ Style interview.<\/p>\n

The women all have a back story, and not everything in their lives is ideal, but they are at ease with who they are. As one woman remarks, \u201cI do a portrait with clothing. I build; I construct.\u201d<\/p>\n

Through Cohen\u2019s blog and book, also titled Advanced Style<\/em>, the women have been noticed by the advertising world in campaigns for Lanvin, and, oddly enough, KMart.<\/p>\n

While engaging and entertaining, the documentary devolves into one-line tropes about aging, such as, \u201cEverything I have two of, one hurts.\u201d But overall, it\u2019s worth trying on.<\/p>\n
