Every step tells a story of confidence and community. The Detroit Area Agency on Aging is celebrating older adults who are showing that age really is just a number—and that living well never goes out of style.
"Women and men can carry themselves with dignity and charisma and poise at any age in life. It's just a matter of attitude," Sheryl Johnson-Fambro said.
That attitude was on display inside Michigan Central Station, with models bringing plenty of energy and even more sass.
"Come out and see that we still got it," Randy Henry said.
And they definitely still do. For many, this runway isn't just about fashion—it's about celebrating life, laughter and the joy that comes with aging.
"We had the young phase, we was buck wild. We had the work phase, family and kids. Now this is our time," Henry said.
