Woman, 48, slams trolls who say she needs to dress her age

A woman has slammed trolls on TikTok who say she should be 'dressing her age'.

Fritzie Cencil, 48, says she is often told to dress her age by other social media users, but doesn't pay them any attention, regularly sporting crop tops and showing off her toned abs.

You can watch a clip below:

In the video, Fritzie can be seen dancing in front of the camera in a navy denim set, with the caption reading: "When someone tells me to dress my age."

Despite some negativity, many followers are super supportive, with one person commenting on the clip: "Darn!! If my body is like that when I’m in your age I’ll wear whatever i want to!! You look great."

While another said: "It’s the vibes for me mama! I want to be like you when I’m older."

And a third added: "The last time I checked, the adult sizing are S,M,L etc and 8,10,12 and so on NOT by age. Keep shining."

Meanwhile a fourth wrote: "Age is just the numbers… keep yourself happy."

In another clip, Fritzie explained: "Born in the '70s, raised in the '80s, raved in the '90s. 2020s – I aspire to inspire before I expire."

Meanwhile she added in another: "At 48yo my life is better than when I was 28yo.

"Proud of the woman I become [sic]."

She added to the US Sun: "Dress whatever you want, age is not the definition of your fashion. Shout your style, not your age."

We recently told you how fashion expert Antonia Fifi - who is in her forties and goes by @tonififi on TikTok - has been clapping back at trolls who have also been criticising her outfit choices.

In one video, Antonia, who lives in Canada, can be seen walking through a festival in a cut out midi dress, captioning the video: "POV. You're over 40 and living life for YOU and not for approval."

In the video, Antonia had responded one comment, which said: "So if you 60 you will wear a cropped shirt? Dress your age."

And followers have been rushing to Antonia's defence, with one person commenting on the video: "I'm 31 but in 9 years I'll be wearing the same things and still going to festivals and raves getting 'old' ain't for everyone!"

While another said: "What does 'dress your age' even mean? You’re an adult, you make your own choices and can do what you want."
