Age/Style Question

[pooks]

Just curious -- a catalog I really like is:

http://www.territoryahead.com/

I've ordered a few things from it and have always had people compliment them, which is rare for me because I am not much about style or fashion.

I didn't notice until today that the catalog has no models. And then I realized that I'm not sure what demographic it's aimed at, age-wise. It's not that I care -- I know I like it and that's all that counts.

But I thought I'd ask here to get a feel for what age person it appeals to or is aimed at, because now I'm totally curious.

Check it out -- do you like the clothes or not? And are you 20s, 30s, 40s, or higher?

I know it's an odd question, but I guess it's also a slow Saturday night!

I love the stuff in Territory Ahead. I'd go broke if I allowed myself to order from it much. Bubba buys sweaters from it for me (he's such a sweetie. )

Oh yeah, older 40s.

Okay, I'm going to date myself, but as a 20 something, I'm saying I'd leave these clothes more to work-casual etc, and would suspect they're for a slightly older age group (then again, I have weird taste in dressing...)

[pooks]

I wondered about that, since I'm (hate this word) middle-aged, I wondered if I was the typical demographic.

I order from them too. I like their shirts and sweaters.

J Jill is my favorite though. I love J Jill.

I'm 54.

I like Territory Ahead. Can't afford their stuff, though.

Almost 40.

Well done, Pooks-ie
I bet Kitsune thought she was safe from us detectives over here!

Nice catalogue btw

[Kitsune06]

ARGH! Margo! You got me!

...maybe you're half right and I'm here from the '60s but only via reincarnation?

[pooks]

LOL! I didn't realize she was keeping it a secret!

Well, I'm sitting here sighing and thinking, man, I really AM getting old because I'm thinking the cutest clothes I've seen in a long time are in a middle-aged catalog. (I guess my tastes are finally catching up with my age -- late 40s.) (And I guess I just dated myself by saying "man" instead of "dude.")

[Kitsune06]

And here I thought 'man' was generally used instead of 'dude'.

[pooks]

Okay, now it's getting worse. I thought my gen said "man" and the next said "dude" and have we already progressed to another that has returned to "man" again? LOL

[Kitsune06]

Actually, I've noticed that style has a 30 year stutter. The '60s were surprisingly popular in the '90s (at least to us grunge rock fans, folks in the group I hung out with, etc) and now we have the Emo crowd, wearing clothes that were pretty popular (popular as in prevalent, not necessarily 'cool')in the 70s and early 80s. Anyone else notice this?

Tasteless Emo joke below... don't read it unless you'd get it...






"I wish my grass was Emo so it'd cut itself." See? Totally tasteless.

[pooks]

I love Emo.

And the 60s were worth repeating. God forgive whoever designed the 70s, and curse whoever thought they were worth copying.

[Kitsune06]

I think the '80s are far less forgiveable, with the neon pinks and greens that would make a RAVER's eyes bleed. Perms, rhinestone-studded denim jackets and that many sequins should be illegal. Straight-legged, high, high, high-waisted jeans with the bottoms rolled up, too.

Don't really fancy most of the stuff on there. Sorry.

Not because its for an older age group or anything, but more cuz of the target fairsheeon market.

My age? 97 years old. 3 more years.
