[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like I am in the exact Madewell demographic: 40, in a creative field, casual dresser. I feel like I should like their stuff but everything looks very ugly to me. I accept that I am getting old and out of touch, but am I THAT out of touch that I no longer recognize fashion? Am I wrong or is Madewell full of aggressively ugly clothes?[/quote] Im 42 and in a creative profession and I completely agree. The clothing is not flattering, particularly for slim people. Casual clothes that work for me and look flattering: COS, Free People.[/quote] Order or are there COS stores anywhere?[/quote] There's one in Georgetown... It's owned by H&M and better quality than fast fashion but not really premium. Personally I find the silhouettes too long/baggy, as if these clothes are made for tall people. Trying on is a must...[/quote] It's a good casual option... They do use real fabric (silk, cotton, wool) and I find they know how to cut clothes to nip in at the natural waistline, so it looks flattering, especially on taller slim people. I like COS. My most eye catching casual outfit is from there (a long skirt and crop top, extremely hourglass-creating.) But the bulk of my casual clothes are from Free People, and I started buying Levis for pants and they are just great.[/quote]
