“I think maybe the older some of us get,” she says, “the more specific we get.
The style is inherently practical and distinctively hers. You just need one thing that becomes what you are.” MacGraw’s accessories are multipurpose: beads stay on display at home, shawls and collected textiles get thrown over the sofa or picnic table when she’s not wrapping them around her waist to cover up yoga tights or her neck to ward off the cold.
“The fun is how a really simple white T-shirt, a pair of good jeans and a decent pair of boots can be made fabulous with a beautiful shawl from West Africa and some beads. “The healthier we live, the better we look, that’s just how it is.” “I’ve done enough yoga and Pilates to be able to stand up straight, you know?” says MacGraw. The complement to the uniform is basic good health. I think it’s great to have kind of a base uniform.”ĭon’t forget healthy habits. “I think it’s great to find something that really fits,” she says, “that’s really flattering, and not get the other 40 versions. I like very simple stuff, and I love accessories, and that’s pretty much how I dress.” Because she likes to travel light (which means never having to check baggage) MacGraw has her base wardrobe down to a science: black, blue and white jeans black and white T-shirts from Three Dots ballet flats, boots and great sandals. Insecurity makes a lot of women put themselves together in a way that doesn’t flatter. “I’ve always liked really simple, well-cut stuff. Which means, dress any way, but be authentic.” For the most part I think it would be great if we women got a real sense of who we are and dress like that. To be a fashion groupie is something very, very few people can pull off. “The luckiest thing is that after awhile you have a very good sense of what works for you,” MacGraw says, “and you don’t make the dreadful mistake - it’s very human - of saying, ‘Oh, this year, lavender see-through slips are what we all should wear to look younger.’ Well, not on me.
