Basic Trope: A visibly old character is portrayed as attractive.
- Straight: Alice is 65 and is very attractive.
- Exaggerated: Alice is 90 and is so attractive that Even the Girls Want Her.
- Downplayed: Alice is 65 and looks adorable, although not as good-looking as she was in her youth.
- Justified:
- Despite certain stereotypes, people generally find others of their own age attractive, and the whole cast is as old as Alice.
- Alice had plastic surgery.
- Thanks to good genes, healthy lifestyle and luck, Alice maintained her beauty.
- Alice naturally has white hair, which means as she enters old age, it's not nearly as noticeable.
- Alice ages like wine, no matter what.
- Inverted: Alice is an 18-year old Gonk.
- Subverted: Alice is rumoured to be the Hot Wife to Alfred's Ugly Guy... But once we meet her, she turns out to not be good-looking at all.
- Double Subverted: Except She Cleans Up Nicely.
- Parodied:
- Alice is presented as such despite possibly being the Gonkiest old hag ever seen.
- Alice's age is only an informed trait—her actor is a beautiful woman in her 20's, and there has been no attempt to make her look older through makeup or special effects.
- Alice is a Silver Foxy Vixen.
- Zig Zagged: ???
- Averted:
- Alice is old and unattractive.
- Alice doesn't look old.
- Enforced:
- The author is tired of the current phenomenons like Old Maids and wants to do what they can about it.
- The role was landed by a Real Life Silver Fox and the producers integrated this into her character.
- Lampshaded: "I've never seen any hot old women until I met Alice."
- Invoked: ???
- Exploited: ???
- Defied: ???
- Discussed: "Alice is old enough to be my mum! Why is she so hot?!"
- Conversed: "... Seriously, do you know any old people that hot in real life?"
