What are the Best Fitting Pants for Women 60 and Older?

Finding clothes as you get older can feel overwhelming. Your body changes, and it takes time to adjust. Figuring out what fits and feels good isn’t always easy. But dressing as a woman over 60 doesn’t need to be difficult if you know what to look out for.

When you're shopping for a good pair of pants, there are a few things to look out for. Think about the fabric, the cut, the length, and whether they have any stretch or give.

Let's explore this topic a little further so you can dress for success (and comfort)!

The Pants Guide for Women Over 60: Key Factors to Consider

As we mature, we change, and that extends to everything from our personalities and preferences to our bodies. As our bodies change, what we look for in clothes often changes too. We start to care more about how things fit, feel, and move with us—especially when it comes to pants.

However, prioritizing things like comfort should not result in complacency or throwing style out the window. On the contrary. At Anthony’s we offer a wide range of pants for women over 60 that offer everything a good pair should.

What are the factors? There’s no one perfect pair of pants that works for everyone over 60. But no matter what style you like—skinny jeans, wide legs, or classic trousers—here are a few things to keep in mind when choosing the right pair.

  • Stretch: Choose pants with a bit of stretch, both in the waistband and in the legs. This adds comfort and makes it easier to move around.
  • Breathability: Pants for warmer climates should be breathable. Here at Anthony's home base in South Florida, we are all too familiar with the necessity of this tip!
  • Flattering Cuts & Styles: The cut & style of a pair of pants can make or break how it looks on you.
  • Fun Colors & Patterns: We believe that your pants should reflect your style, whether that’s elegant and muted or bold and colorful. Choosing pants and coordinating outfits should be fun!

Love the choices, wish they were linked so I could add them to my cart. Would prefer not to be called an “older woman” though…So many more PC options (mature, in her prime, wiser, etc) these days. Thanks for taking that into consideration for next time :)
