Retirement home, but make it runway
Images: Maplewood Court
Residents at English retirement home Maplewood Court recently traded slippers for statement pieces, rocking bold wigs, oversized pearls, and colorful fits for a surprise photoshoot.
- The event was pulled together by staffers who sourced wigs, raided closets for accessories, and turned the afternoon into a full-on production.
- Makeup? Done. Photos? Snapped. Confidence? Through the roof.
It doesn’t stop there. The pics are getting printed, framed, and turned into a mini gallery inside the home, so residents can relive their supermodel era anytime they want.
