< Back Embracing the Change: How Menopause Transforms Our Bodies and Our Style Menopause Advice, Perimenopause, Post Menopause, Self-Care, Wellbeing Menopause is one of those things we don't always talk about openly, but it affects every woman at some point. It marks the end of menstruation and the beginning of a new chapter in our lives. While the changes can feel overwhelming at times, they can also be a powerful opportunity to redefine how we see ourselves and how we express that through our style. By Claire Causton, The Menopause Stylist Understanding the Shifts As we transition through perimenopause, menopause, and into postmenopause, our bodies go through a lot. Hormonal fluctuations lead to noticeable shifts: weight may settle around the middle, our skin can feel drier, hair might thin, and hot flashes become a regular visitor. Breasts may lose fullness, and joints might creak a bit more than before. These aren’t flaws; they’re signs of a body that has lived, nurtured, and evolved. Style and Self-Image With these physical changes can come shifts in how we feel about our bodies. Our old wardrobe might not feel right anymore—literally and emotionally. But this is also a chance to let go of trends that never served us and embrace clothes that truly fit who we are now. Style after menopause isn’t about hiding or shrinking. It’s about expressing our evolving identities with confidence, comfort, and authenticity. Dressing for the Body You Have Now Here are a few ways you can evolve your wardrobe to support and celebrate your changing body: 1. Fit Over Size : Dress the Body You Have Now Your body has changed, and that’s completely natural. Let go of the number on the tag and choose pieces that fit and flatter the body you have today. Feeling good in your clothes starts with how they feel on you. 2. Layer for Comfort and Confidence Managing hot flashes and sudden chills? Layers are your stylish solution. Choose breathable, natural fabrics like cotton, bamboo, or linen to stay cool and comfortable without sacrificing style. 3. Embrace a New Silhouette The shapes and cuts you once loved may no longer feel right—and that's okay. Styles like high waistbands, volume on the shoulders or tailoring can help you balance your features and support your changing shape. 4. Love Your Skin with Gentle Fabrics If your skin feels more sensitive, seek out fabrics that are soft and soothing. Skip scratchy textures and opt for natural, breathable fibers that are kind to your skin. 5. Ditch Fast Fashion Invest in better quality longer lasting pieces that will defy the short cycle of seasonal trends. These pieces will stay looking good for longer, will have better tailoring for a better f it and you will feel the benefit. Confidence is Always in Style Menopause is a transformation, not a decline. As our bodies change, so do our priorities. Many women find this stage of life freeing—a time to dress for themselves instead of for trends or expectations. Style doesn’t have an age limit. In fact, some of the most stylish, inspiring women are well over 50 and owning their look more than ever. Use this time to discover or rediscover your personal style. What makes you feel powerful, beautiful, and like you? Your Wardrobe, Your Rules Here are some practical tips for building a mid-life wardrobe that feels both stylish and empowering: • Ditch the baggy coverups and add some tailored layers to level up your look • Wear those save for best pieces dressed down with flats and a casual jacket • Use accessories to add personality and draw attention to features you love • Be brave with colour, prints and textures in ways that make you feel good • Let go of any clothes that no longer make you feel confident, comfortable, or aligned with who you are today The Bottom Line This is your time . Menopause may bring changes, but it also brings clarity, strength, and a new sense of self. Let your style reflect that. Choose clothes that make you feel amazing in the body you have right now. Style is more than what you wear—it’s how you show up for yourself every day, with confidence, pride, and unapologetic joy, no matter your age, size, or stage in the menopause journey.

< Back Redefining Healthy Ageing: Menopause as the Gateway, Not the End Challenging Old Narratives: Menopause has long been painted as the start of decline. Lifestyle medicine reframes it as a gateway to healthy ageing. Midlife is an opportunity to protect health for decades to come A Pivot Point in Women’s Health Evidence shows that lifestyle choices in midlife have long-lasting effects on health outcomes: Bone health: Weight-bearing exercise and adequate vitamin D/calcium support stronger bones. Heart health: A Mediterranean-style diet and regular physical activity reduce cardiovascular risk. Brain health: Quality sleep, lifelong learning, and social connection help protect memory and cognition. Emotional wellbeing: Purpose, community, and mindfulness practices act as natural mood stabilisers. Menopause as Motivation While hormone changes are not fully within our control, how we live each day is. Menopause can be the turning point where women actively choose to build strength, energy, and resilience for the years ahead. The real question is not “how do I get through menopause?” but “how do I thrive in the decades that follow?” Lifestyle medicine provides the practical steps to make this possible.
