Photographer Baldovino Barani has captured a quirky editorial for the January edition of the South China Morning Post (SCMP) called 'Senior Citizens.' This amusing and superbly styled spread features models Meng and Patti Zhao dressed up as fashionable "grannies" as they take on the town.
The Senior Citizens editorial, styled by Cheryl Leung, provides a fun look at the day-to-day of two very stylish seniors. With curled salt-and-pepper hairstyles and bold red lips (the work of makeup artist and hair stylist Karen Yiu), the models showcase vibrant and punchy pieces from Marc Jacobs, Givenchy, Dior, Louis Vuitton and other designers. Head-to-toe prints, kitten-heeled mules, colorful head scarves, oversized sunnies and vibrant plastic visors are some of the items you'll find in this fun and fresh fashion shoot by Baldovino Barani.
