Yappy Hour with Ari Seth Cohen

Ari Seth Cohen is a freelance writer, photographer, and blogger based in Los Angeles. Cohen grew up in San Diego and moved to New York in 2008, where he immediately noticed a vibrant community of older women with grand personal styles. This eventually led to the creation of Advanced Style, a blog devoted “to capturing the sartorial savvy of the senior set.” Over the past ten years, Advanced Style has appeared in national media such as The New York Times, The New Yorker, Los Angeles Times, The Huffington Post, Vice, New York, The Fader, Vogue Japan, Vogue Italia, Elle, Elle UK, The UK Telegraph, Forbes.com, and internationally broadcast news and fashion programs. He has since published Advanced Style The Coloring Book, Advanced Style: Older and Wiser and Advanced Love. Cohen brought his colorful subjects to the big screen in the critically acclaimed Advanced Style Documentary. In 2015 New York Times fashion director, Vanessa Friedman, credited Cohen with creating a movement which has led to more age diversity and increased visibility for older models in popular culture, fashion and advertising.
