Survey #260—Full Response from Millie
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| Please list any other “wardrobe malfunction” you’ve experienced that we didn’t include above. | I own pieces that I wear regularly but need to be replaced because they're looking worn |
| Complete the following statement: “The biggest problem with managing my wardrobe is that __________.” | The biggest problem with managing my wardrobe is that my body shape is changing as I age and the styles of clothing I favored in the past (some of which are still in my closet that I wear regularly) don't fit the way they did before. I don't know what is appropriate for a person of my age to wear. I'm 67 years old and am still wearing blue jeans. They fit okay cause I'm slim, but am I going to be wearing jeans in 10 years? (I'm sure not going to wear polyester, elastic pants like my grandmother and mother did.) I need to find a middle ground where I look nice, not frumpy or like an aging hippy. |
| What specific categories or types of clothing do you most struggle to manage? | I don't struggle because a few years back I divided my clothes into fall/winter and spring/summer. I hang most all my clothes and I switch out the closet twice a year. It has helped tremendously because every time I put out the new season of clothing it seems like completely new stuff to me because it's been hidden away in a drawer for the past six months. I take that time to add in new pieces for the current season and dispose of items from the old season that's being put away (clothes that are stained or looking worn or that I've decided I no longer like). |
