50岁时该如何着装？

The pursuit of individual and personal style becomes so much more important as you get older. When I look at my clothes at home, I don’t think my style has changed very much since my early 30s. That was when I settled on something. And if I could be 38 again, I don’t think I would dress any differently than I do now, at 50.

当你年纪越来越大时，追求自我和个人的风格变得日益重要。在家里看着我的衣服时，我认为我的风格自30岁出头后就没怎么变化过。那时我刚安顿下来。如果我能再次回到38岁，我认为我的穿衣风格与我现在50岁的风格不会有什么差别。

That said, some elements of the way I dress have been constant since I was a teenager, when I became obsessed with a Bruce Weber Vogue shoot based on Edward Weston and his women. I remember taking the magazine into Exeter to get my hair cut like the picture, then buying a fisherman’s jumper in a sailing shop. I bought a grey pencil skirt, dug out my school shoes and ankle socks, got my dad’s overcoat and got the look. I still dress like those pictures in a way.

这就是说，我穿衣风格中的一些元素自我青少年时期起便一直如此，那时候我十分痴迷于《时尚》杂志布鲁斯•韦伯摄影师所拍摄的爱德华•韦斯顿和他女人。我还记得当时我把杂志带到了埃克塞特，让理发师把我的头发剪成图片上的样子，然后在一家航海商店买了渔夫的工作装。我买了一条灰色的铅笔裙。找出了学生鞋和脚踝袜，穿上我父亲的外套，得到了我想要的外观。在某些方面，我的穿衣风格与这些图片仍然十分相似。

There’s an abiding perception that the high street doesn’t serve older women very well, but in my view it’s better than it has ever been. The choice is huge – whether that’s Topshop, Uniqlo or Cos. It’s not one stop that gives you everything you want, more that everybody offers something very different.

有一种持久的观念认为主街道并不太适合年纪大的女性，但在我看来，主街道比以前好多了。选择很多——不管它是Topshop，优衣库还是Cos。

The key is to be true to yourself and confident about what you like. It’s not necessarily about what’s in fashion, it’s what you love for you and your style. I have never been comfortable in structured clothes, for example, and I accept that. I’m lazy in a way. I can’t wear high heels because I can’t walk fast enough in them. I like to feel I can move around and get everything done. I’m also not somebody who scrutinises every detail or seam, looking at the construction. I like clothes that give you the effect of what you want.

关键就是要对自己真实，并对自己喜欢的东西充满信心。这并不一定关于流行什么，这是关于你自己喜欢什么以及你喜欢什么风格。比如,穿结构化衣服时我从未感觉到舒适， 我接受这一事实。在某种程度上来讲，我有点懒。我不能穿高跟鞋，因为穿上高跟鞋，我就不能走的很快。我喜欢可以任意移动并完成一切的感觉。我也不是那种会检查所有细节或缝隙，监测制衣过程的人。我喜欢那种能让你得到你想要的效果的衣服。
