Being fashionable and walking the ramp while wearing gorgeous outfits are often associated with younger people.
However, Nigerian filmmaker and artist Malik Afegbua is breaking this notion by creating images using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to show elderly people walking the ramp while wearing the most fashionable attire.
Malik Afegbua’s images of elderly models have blown up on Instagram, but they are not what they seem.
Instead, the pictures are the result of Afegbua’s imagination working in conjunction with AI software, showing older-looking models in beautiful clothes.
He knew he had created something special after he had posted them on social media. Especially after they caught the eye of the Oscar-winning costume designer behind the Black Panther films, Ruth Carter. “This is so dope!!” she wrote on Instagram.
