I’m 80 years old and fashion lets me challenge the barriers of prejudice. To quote Iris Apfel “Who said an old broad can’t look fabulous!”
We would like to thank you for supporting Barbara E. Matson in this years competition. Your participation allows us to empower the Elton John AIDS Foundation in their mission to end AIDS for everyone, everywhere.
What makes your style stand out?
It is fun, comfortable, elegant and a bit sassy. It challenges ageism and stretches the paradigm of what 80 years old should look like by mixing many styles—boho, minimalism, maximalism, goth, punk, classic. It supports joy.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
Winning $20,000 to help the Front Door Communities Boutique provide services to homeless women and men.
What would you do with $20,000?
