We’ve seen grandmothers rocking some incredible fashion pieces, but now it’s the men’s turn, and they’ve proven that they’re not going down without a fight.
85-year-old resident of rural Fujian Province, China went out to the city to see his grandson, who also happens to be a photographer. He received a warm welcome, but didn’t know he would be in for a very pleasant surprise.
His grandson, who goes by the name XiaoYeJieXi on the Chinese social media site Weibo, had the simple desire to give his beloved grandfather a tour of the city. But he was also planning to give him a fashion makeover, an idea that was inspired by the stylish lifestyles he saw of seniors living outside of China.
So after decking his grandfather out from head to toe, they traveled around the city, XiaoYeJieXi snapping gorgeous photographs the entire time.
The pictures were posted by XiaoYeJieXi photography, which then spread on Weibo.
He donned fashionable pieces like colorful three-piece suits, felted hats, and tailored denim
