We’ve All Heard Of Granny Chic But This 72-Year-Old Granddad Takes It To A Whole New Level!

He’s become an internet sensation in a matter of days and has been compared to Karl Lagerfeld but this unlikely male-model and fashion maverick isn’t your usual tall, dark and handsome type... he’s a 72-year-old Chinese man who decided to help his granddaughter model designs for her online boutique.

Leggy OAP Liu Xianping was helping his granddaughter unpack clothing from a delivery and decided to give advice on how she should style the clothes for her website. But instead of just telling her how to mix and match the garments, the quirky Chinese man decide to don the assortment of tops, blouses and mini-skirts himself and the pair were having so much fun that they decided to start shoothing Liu wearing the clothes.

Liu's penchant for over-the-knee socks makes him the perfect model

Speaking to Shanghaaist, the 72-year-old said “Why unacceptable (for someone like me to wear women’s clothes)? Modelling for the store is helping my granddaiughter and I have nothing to lose. We were very happy on the day of the shooting. I’m very old and all that I care about is to be happy.”

We just hope we look and feel as good as Liu when we’re in our 70s!
