The comment awakens a well earned nasty reply.<br /> I would say I have just started and have not yet gained as much expertise as you have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/3#post-1976788 Fri, 23 Nov 2018 19:15:51 +0000 Katerina 1976788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anchie, how incredibly rude, I can´t believe it! FWIW, I love your hair and it looks great worn down.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/3#post-1976580 Thu, 22 Nov 2018 16:45:40 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1976580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anchie, I’m amazed that people would actually say that, whether to a stranger or aquatintance. You could go a step past the “yes, practicing my spells” response to look the person up and down and reply “no, I lost out to someone with [offender’s most obvious trait] Or you take the high road as my son suggests and ignore them because they’re idiots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/3#post-1976515 Thu, 22 Nov 2018 11:55:38 +0000 Bijou 1976515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a beautiful woman and YES to rocking the trends at any age.</p> <p>It is great to see an older model who has not been photo shopped. I have always loved Kate Moss, but in many photos, they erase all signs of ageing, giving the message that she is less beautiful now than before.&nbsp;<br />When I was a moody teenager my Mother said to me, <br />"At 20 you get the face that nature gave you, at 40 you get the face that you deserve - so you had better stop frowning and smile a bit more..."&nbsp;</p> <p>This woman has a beautiful face, it does not look young or altered and I am thrilled to see her represent a company whose clothing seems so much more desirable than before.</p> <p><b>Anchie</b> - you are beautiful and have gorgeous hair.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/3#post-1976495 Thu, 22 Nov 2018 07:33:39 +0000 Greyscale 1976495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I noticed her too, and I love it!<br /><b><br />Jjsloane</b> - as for the Madewell to J Crew relationship, I'd say: Madewell is much more specifically trendy, aimed at a certain cool girl aesthetic. Quality is often actually higher than J Crew, and prices reflect it (things usually stay at full price). J Crew is caught in an unfortunate dilemma where their sales decreased, so they slashed prices, so they had to skimp on quality, customers were frustrated, and the cycle continues. I get the sense that Madewell's sales are impressively strong. They're the It brand for a certain demographic though I don't know if that demographic is upper middle class teens, urban twentysomethings, or what... Their stuff often feels young on me but I still find a few gems here and there. Salespeople there are quite friendly to me, but I do stick out as an older customer with edgier style.</p> <p>Regarding fit, at the lower end of the size range I'd say they're about the same, though I have no idea about other sizes. Madewell's style is more often relaxed cuts. J Crew used to be too straight-cut for me - cut for long skinny arms, long flat torso. Madewell has always fit my shorter, curvier frame better - but sizing is often inconsistent. Their jeans run large in my experience. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/3#post-1976322 Wed, 21 Nov 2018 18:40:54 +0000 Thistle 1976322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful model. It's so good to see some diversity in age. Would love more in body size, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/3#post-1976227 Wed, 21 Nov 2018 14:18:43 +0000 L'Abeille 1976227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an inspiration to see! (To me, the clothes she's wearing are wonderfully appropriate and up to date. The mattress on the floor seems weird though.)</p> <p>Anchie, how awful that people would say such things to you. I'm older than you so maybe I could carry this off better. But really, if it happened to me I'd fix them with a baleful stare and ask, if they really thought I might be a witch, is it wise to be rude to me? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1976088 Wed, 21 Nov 2018 02:37:10 +0000 Aquamarine 1976088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How did I miss this post? She’s stunning! She reminds me of a woman I saw this summer while on vacation at a beach community. She was tanned, fit, relaxed, and beautiful with long white hair. I immediately wanted to stop coloring my hair and grow it out </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1975984 Tue, 20 Nov 2018 20:03:23 +0000 Chris987 1975984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anchie maybe your comeback should be that you DID get the job at Hogwarts and your current job assignment is to test out some new spells, and you were hoping you could try them out on them.... At least you could introduce some humor ...:-)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1975899 Tue, 20 Nov 2018 15:34:47 +0000 Jamie 1975899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So inspirational!&nbsp; She is just lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974521 Thu, 15 Nov 2018 07:42:51 +0000 Janet 1974521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>She’s fantastic! I love that they didn’t photoshop her chin or neck, as I’m self-conscious of that area on myself. Plus I’m on vacation and long overdue for a hair cut/color (it’s going to be absolutely dire by the time we get home in two weeks!), and while traveling I rarely bother to blow-dry and style my hair, so I’m kind of loving the wild curly grey hair. Yay Madewell! Next time I need to jean shop I will definitely try them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974510 Thu, 15 Nov 2018 06:43:44 +0000 anchie 1974510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shevia - great comeback. Now I hope that someone will make such a comment again so that I can use it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974506 Thu, 15 Nov 2018 05:41:07 +0000 Jenni NZ 1974506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Go Shevia! That one's great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974480 Thu, 15 Nov 2018 03:27:26 +0000 Jaime 1974480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would love to see you with your hair curly Anchie. Tell the rude people that yes you did get the job and you also just put a curse on them. (Fantasy life comeback ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974479 Thu, 15 Nov 2018 02:55:46 +0000 Angie 1974479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, <b>anchie</b>. How <i>rude&nbsp;people&nbsp;can be</i>. I'm with <b>Jenni NZ.&nbsp;</b>You need a good comeback response.</p> <p><b>Jeanne</b>, exactly the opposite! Madewell is the better quality version of J.Crew. A lot more neutral and casual - but definitely better quality and higher end. Suppose to cut across all age groups.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974471 Thu, 15 Nov 2018 00:54:56 +0000 Jjsloane 1974471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous! I am a bit confused since I always thought of Madewell as the more youthful Juniors line of J Crew. Like the Old Navy to Gap.I equate it with lesser quality and smaller fits. Is this changing or untrue? I have not found Madewell to fit me except for a pair of jeans I recently purchased at the Rack.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974464 Thu, 15 Nov 2018 00:03:30 +0000 jill58 1974464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anchie, that's ridiculous. You're beautiful and your hair is lovely. I particularly like it worn down </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974463 Wed, 14 Nov 2018 23:51:33 +0000 Jenni NZ 1974463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Anchie, that is awful. You need to find a good comeback response to that one that makes them think and feel bad all at the same time. I noticed a stunning older woman perhaps 70 at breakfast at the hotel we're at yesterday- long white curly hair, kind of boho top and sandals/jewellery. Rockin' it like this Madewell model!<br /> And brands using older models def makes me happy to support them, all else being equal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974428 Wed, 14 Nov 2018 21:07:33 +0000 anchie 1974428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I feel inspired. I like her hair. I always try to straighten mine, but if I left it air dry with some product it gets waivy like this. I am tired of witch comments - too many people asked me if I got the job at Hogwarts, and I hesitate to wear it long and down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974419 Wed, 14 Nov 2018 20:27:43 +0000 Scarlet 1974419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't read the comments yet, but one thing that strikes me about the images is I appreciate seeing an older woman with long, grey hair. Most women tend to go shorter with their hair as they age, but I can't imagine that ever working for me and my wild hair. This is a nice alternative look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974345 Wed, 14 Nov 2018 15:51:24 +0000 Marilyn 1974345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974293 Wed, 14 Nov 2018 09:41:26 +0000 lyn67 1974293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love her and all the shots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974281 Wed, 14 Nov 2018 08:14:57 +0000 CocoLion 1974281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for sharing Angie! &nbsp;I was borderline stunned that they didn't photoshop her neck. &nbsp;You almost never see that. &nbsp;I want to know more about her and this campaign. </p> <p>This campaign makes me feel more comfortable about walking into a Madewell now.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974258 Wed, 14 Nov 2018 02:20:45 +0000 cindysmith 1974258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is awesome! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974190 Tue, 13 Nov 2018 19:45:06 +0000 Katerina 1974190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this, thank you for sharing!<br /> Fantastic use of colours, too .... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974165 Tue, 13 Nov 2018 17:18:43 +0000 unfrumped 1974165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great sharing; I’ve noticed her before.<br /> To me marketing includes both the “imaginary life” fantasy appeal AND the “ I can actually see wearing that”— the relatable idea per lisa p.<br /> I understand they’re going to still use models that look way more conventionally “ good” than “ average” folks. </p> <p>When looking at some more “ mature” bloggers I get mixed feelings— sometimes it’s wow, great, and sometimes, if that’s how that looks on “ us” , I would make some ... adjustments. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974150 Tue, 13 Nov 2018 15:40:29 +0000 viva 1974150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is just what I needed to see this morning!

I noticed her right away too. So refreshing. One thing I love about Madewell is although the sales associates in the stores I frequent are unfailingly young, they make me feel right at home. And this model only reinforces that feeling. Good on Madewell. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974113 Tue, 13 Nov 2018 13:11:02 +0000 RobinF 1974113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I love her and pretty much everything she is wearing!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fab-model-madewell/page/2#post-1974080 Tue, 13 Nov 2018 10:37:12 +0000 Carla 1974080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>She’s absolutely gorgeous. I love the confident side profile pic of her beautiful, strong nose. Maybe one day, when I’m big, I’ll be able to do that too </p>
