From top hat to toe - lucky ladies in Cheshire care home recreate iconic photos from their younger years

From top hat to toe - lucky ladies in a Cheshire care home have been given a chance to step back in time and perfectly recreate iconic black and white photographs from their past. Residents at Care UK’s Cranford Grange, in Mobberley, were given five-star treatment – and then looked in the mirror to find that they had been transformed into their younger selves from decades ago.

The incredible makeover came as three ladies from the home shared striking photos from their younger days, and the home got in touch with their families to learn more about these iconic looks. The ladies were treated to a morning of pampering – from hair styling to professional makeovers.

With customised props, no stone was left unturned in recreating their original looks, with the trio suited and booted to look the part. Local photographer, Katie Lucas, captured it all, transporting them back to a key time in their lives.
