Meet seven unique New Yorkers whose eclectic personal style and vital spirit have guided their approach to aging. Based on Ari Seth Cohen’s famed blog of the same name, Advanced Style paints intimate and colourful portraits of independent, stylish women aged 62 to 95 who are challenging conventional ideas about beauty, aging, and Western’s culture’s increasing obsession with youth. Filled with vitality, each vignette bursts with life and humour. Like the mantra for its characters, this affirming documentary reminds us that age is just a number and beauty is forever.
