Love judi dench and so glad she didn’t go down the Joan Collins route or for that matter Brigitte Bardot. There is a happy medium! Not a fan of linen, looks like crumpled bedding after 10 minutes!
I have tried to emulate her hairstyle with limited success. Does anybody know if her hairstyle needs that wax stuff that you mould into shape?Or hairspray?
I did like her dignified understated outfits in the Marigold Hotel
Oh dear, Lessismore, I do most humbly apologise for my comment.. I just think that white is rather harsh after a certain age and perhaps a little colour would have enhanced the outfit.
She does look lovely, though - I went and tried to mess my hair like hers but, alas, my efforts did not have quite the same effect.
I am sitting here in my fetching navy blue cropped trousers (BHS circa 2014) and my even more ancient top from M&S (old but cool), bare-footed, hair a la Boris, daring to criticise the elegant Ms Dench.
Alexa my current haircut is very similar to Dame Judys, when I CBA to actually "style" it, I use a squirt of VO5 gel spray and poke it about a bit with my fingers.
You know you're either old overweight or both when you start wearing loose edge-to-edge full- length 'coats' over whatever shapeless garments you have on underneath or (an especial favourite of Dame Dench, Miriam Margolyes and the late Clare Rayner among others) half a kilim runner thrown over one shoulder...why? I've no idea. Not a scarf, not a jacket, not a pashmina. A huge dangling thing that serves no purpose.
