First ladies are known for starting fashion trends, but we have to admit: this one kind of took us by surprise. Dr. Jill Biden, aka Mrs. Joe Biden, recently donned a racy pair of fishnet-style stockings at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland. The 69-year-old paired the tights with high-heeled ankle boots and a leather-hemmed dress, prompting both criticism and praise in equal measure.
At what point do you dress your age. Not becoming, not appropriate and waaay to old for this look. https://t.co/tTJsx6dcro

I need to live in a world where a 69-year-old woman can wear a mini skirt and black tights without being told it’s inappropriate #firstlady #JillBiden pic.twitter.com/JllmrGoYCJ

Whether you love ‘em or hate ‘em, a particular group of women were taken with Biden’s style – and decided to imitate it. The New York Post cataloged several septuagenarians who embraced the eye-catching look. These grandmas had the gams to pull it off, too.

We say: if you’ve got it, flaunt it, no matter what your age. Sex appeal has no expiration date. Now: how long until we see a Joe Biden-inspired summer wardrobe for men?
