Answer 1

Well, Im 24 and know a LOT of people my age who love to shop and Hollister and american eagle because their clothes are comfortable and decently priced. usually, I get clothes for class at these places because they have cute things that really match my style.
A lot of people who are my age and older will generally shop a LOT at macy's, dillard's, express, learner ny, anne taylor, and get a lot of ralph lauren clothes.
I think you are right though- when you see a 30 something trying to dress like a 16 year old, it is pretty weird looking. They should try to dress more "adult".
and yes- generally stores like that are targeted towards 17-20 year olds.

Answer 2

I seem to recall that none of the stores you listed have any real "age group" sign. Though, as a person in my 30s, I just personally don't like shopping there. I am considered "old school 80s preppy" and none of these stores cater to that.

The quality is not that great and I they are a bit skimpy for me to wear to work environment at any of these stores. I also find it difficult to find sizes there over a size 10. So really honestly don't shop there anyways.

So I don't totally agree with you at all. I actually do shop at a lot of the same stores as my mom, who is in her 50s. But it is more a fact of body type than age. I am too curvy, size, 12 - 14 and stores like Wetseal, Hollister, AF, Charlotte Russe, etc. do not cater to that size group. I tend to shop at places like Banana Republic, J. Crew, Macys, Nordstroms that offer trendy stuff in a wider range of sizes and are more work appropriate.

Fashion is what you make of it. And any store whether is AF, thrift shop or main stream mall dept. store, shouldn't matter.

Answer 3

Your totally right adults shouldn't shop at those places but some do anyways because they want to look younger.But also i think 25 year olds shouldn't really shp at those places i think like 14 to 20 year olds should shop there.

Answer 4

well, i think that to some extent 25+ year olds can be "trendy". there is no doubt that they want to fit in, especially if they have children they do not want to be considered "lame". they can still shop there, but they shouldn't be buying what they're daughers are buying...those stores, also, are made for whoever is going to go in and give them money!

Answer 5
