Is Johnny Was for older women?

Anonymous
I'm a big fan and 50 but I loved them in my early 40s. It just depends on what piece it is. I like embroidery and I'm into high quality material and comfort. They size liberally so a Sm in this brand usually works for me when in others I'm a M.

I don't look at branding like that either - if the brand has good design - it's good design. I loved Eileen Fisher at age 30 and I still love her today - it's minimalistic and typically comfortable. Everyone is going to sell a skirt, a shirt, etc. It depends totally on the piece you are looking at but design typically follows a pattern. In the case of Johnny Was they do a lot of embroidery.

There collection is a hit or miss but if you got the $$$ to spend on lux boho look, its a good brand to watch for occasional fun pieces to add to your wardrobe.

My MIL gifted me some pieces about ten years when I was newly married and it my late 20s. I can say those items still look new. I think of her when I wear them because she’s sadly no longer with us.

The quality is excellent. I buy things if I see something I like. It’s really hit or miss but there are some really fun items you can find. And I love that the quality still seems high. I hate fast fashion and want things to list. JW delivers on that. I tend to like Alice and Olivia, Rails, Zimmerman for a splurge item.

summer 2024 and some velvet tops in winter 24 are def my style and not even too flashy or old looking. love that I can wear very tight velour/fake velvet pants with the blouses that go right on the butt and be casual yet semi-formal in a house during the holidays or during school events. i think the prices are high even on sale but these are pieces you will have forever and I am one of those people that uses the same handbag for 5 to 16 years (true story) so I don't like to spend on cheap things esp now that i have been working at home and wear the same 2 outfits every christmas for the past 4 years and just change them up a little (as long as they fit, they are classics)

Their blankets are amazing and worth the $250 price. I've given them as gifts. Dog beds are also super cute.

I am older. I think it works for older. Think Lily Pulitzer garish well off older.

It's garish, eccentric older boho.

More subtle, outdoorsy older boho would be Sundance Catalog.
