hollywood, senior style


This was passed along courtesy of my fsilm. What a fabulous idea! I would have liked to give a copy of this calendar to my grandmother, if she were still alive. She would have loved it!


"The Contilia Retirement Group in Essen, Germany made what is probably the best calendar ever with a few of their seniors.
According to German press, 5000 calendars were printed. And they were given out to residents of the senior center, along with relatives and staff.
The calendar models were interviewed about the project and said it was a ton of fun to dress up as their favorite actors.
The shoot was done with professional stylists and photographers to make sure everything looked as cool as possible.
"
