Why it works

• Clear audience labels: 'plus size' or 'after 50' is in 3 of the 3 fashion titles
• Titles use a rule-breaking hook: 'French Women Do' video has 1,632 views, 4 times the next fashion video (411)
• X versus tick thumbnails on 2 of the 3 fashion videos show the fix at a glance
• A French persona named in the about text and greeting viewers in all 3 fashion descriptions; one video opens on her own menopause tummy
• Both transcribed videos put the fault on the clothes or the old rules, never on the viewer's body
