Is “sexy” what you want to be in your mid-80’s?

I give her 10/10 for doing this show, she is a very attractive women especially for her age. I would LOVE someone to glam me up, hair, make-up, lovely white teeth all the things that most of us are never able to have the opportunity to do. Well done to her I say. You only lives once.

I might try a modified copy of that from what I have in the shed.
A black teashirt with pegs and lots of black eye makeup.
Will send a pic if I do!

I actually think it suits her, good for her!

Exactly, Icandoit.
Have made a start by trying on my new Roman dresses. Might send the black one back, or I might glam it up +++.

Its fashion influenced by porn. Depends what you think about that I suppose.

The teeth is the most difficult and expensive thing.
Had hair cut for first time in 27 weeks. So pleased.

That outfit looks sad and unattractive to me - looks as if she’s auditioning to play a woodlouse in an avant garde play……

Why anyone would want to make her ‘look sexy’ I don’t know, but, give her love of vibrant colours, a slinky sequinned rainbow dress might have hit the mark?

Not keen on her ‘Kettlewell’ look either - colours too garish and too much going on!

Your first sentence had me spluttering coffee everywhere😂

It’s a NO from me as well, it just looks laughable.

I agree with this. My wardrobe is 90% black, I feel comfortable with the way I dress.
I think Pru just did this as a one off as her wardrobe is usually colourful. I cannot take it too seriously ti be honest.

This was a fashion show for goodness sake, she won’t be wearing it in Waitrose.
I don’t think anybody looks good in leather (or whatever this outfit is made from) apart from on their feet, or hands.
I like PL in the Kettlewell stuff she wears but I prefer something a little more subtle.

Fashion shows are meant to be art

She reminds me of the models of Vivienne Westwood; she was not pleased when they appeared on Wogan many years ago and the audience collapsed with laughter.
She may have been iconic, but I don't think her clothes flattered many women.

Absolutely not!

Allira if I had an event where it would work then probably but I wouldn,t wear it with trainers it would be very high heels and multiple silver bangles.I used to wear a similar dress in the 80s but it was silver ,I loved it.As to being sexy ? Well isn,t that like beauty,in the eye of the beholder and I know my OH tells me I.m sexy. 50 years after we met .I,m certainly not offended by it why shouldn,t women be sexy at 70 or 80 ?

My point is it doesn't matter if she looks awful or dreadful. She's 84 and she's done something different and probably for her, exciting. Good for her.

Agree.

Sexy that is not. Looks more like plastic bags sewn together. Still bet she had fun on the day, and wonder if she now thinks "what on earth was I doing"!

Yes, I think the trainers detracted from it somewhat, paddyann.

Personally I wouldn't have worn it, and it's not my idea of 0f sexy but I might wear the trainers 😃

I agree re sexy, that's a matter of opinion.

It’s sad that you don’t acknowledge Tina’s achievement despite all the adversity she had, she could still put on a world class performance at 80.

Imv the designers misused the word sexy.

The design quite clearly was influenced by the BDSM scene.

Not much use of imagination or innovation.

Come on, black and red? Hackneyed.

So full Mark's for getting the most attention for the least cognative outlay.

I love the trainers, wear many colours of Chuck's.

I agree that sexy is a matter of opinion - only two opinions matter, my husband's and mine - no worry, we're pleased each to the others looks.

I'm not as old as Prue but that outfit doesn't look comfortable to wear for any age group.
I do like comfy.

I don’t like her, but think she looks good in whatever she wears. Good head of hair and nice teeth. Trying new things keeps you young!

For this lady´s age, she looks fabulous, and is lucky with a great head of hair and nice teeth .. Good genetics ..

I think she looks vibrant.
(Not my color palette, however, lovely on her). I have never seen or heard of this lady before today.

Most women her age wear house dresses and slippers and are overweight and look horrendous and unkept as they do not go to the hairdresser and wear any good quality cosmetics.

Tina Turner was a stunningly sexy woman .. And phenomenal vocalist and dancer.

Eye of the beholder and all that, David, but I see where you're coming from. Nice one.
