@dw.africa: At 85, Zambian grandmother Margaret Chola, popularly known as Legendary Grandma, is challenging stereotypes about aging and making waves in the international fashion world. What began as a creative experiment in 2024, when her granddaughter, New York-based stylist Diana Kaumba, dressed her in high-fashion outfits and photographed her against African landscapes, has grown into a global sensation. Her striking looks have captured attention on social media and reached international audiences, including an exhibition in London. Beyond the colorful outfits and bold poses, their project celebrates African culture, the beauty of growing older and the power of storytelling across generations, proving that age is no barrier to creativity, confidence or style.#dwafricasocialmedia #zambia #lusaka #zimbabwe #southafrica
