**Grandma Becomes a Fashion Sensation: The Rise of Legendary Glamma**

An 85-year-old Zambian grandmother finds fame on Instagram with her stylish looks, bridging generational gaps through fashion.


Margret Chola, known as "Legendary Glamma," captures hearts worldwide with her playful fashion journey alongside her granddaughter Diana Kaumba.



In a charming village near Lusaka, Zambia, a grandmother in her mid-80s has emerged as an unexpected fashion icon, captivating audiences with her vibrant and unique style. Known as "Legendary Glamma," Margret Chola gained widespread attention after participating in her granddaughter Diana Kaumba's creative fashion project, dubbed the Granny Series. This project has attracted a remarkable 225,000 followers on Instagram, where Ms. Chola showcases her stunning outfits and infectious spirit.

"I feel different, I feel new and alive in these clothes, in a way that I’ve never felt before," Ms. Chola remarked to the BBC, expressing her excitement for the attention. The Granny Series, initiated by Ms. Kaumba during a visit to Zambia in 2023, emerged as a way to honor family ties while simultaneously celebrating fashion.

During her visit, Ms. Kaumba seized the opportunity to dress her grandmother in chic attire from her collection, prompting Ms. Chola to say, "If that’s what you want to do, let’s do it – why not?" The authentic and whimsical photo shoots took place on the family farm, capturing Ms. Chola's glamorous outfits amidst rustic rural backdrops, such as ploughed fields and mango trees.

What started as a casual project took off in April 2024 when Ms. Kaumba shared photos of her grandmother in a striking red Adidas dress adorned with bold accessories, leading to overwhelming expressions of admiration from followers worldwide. As Ms. Chola shared her evolving style – from sequined tops to stylish wigs – she began to feel a newfound sense of purpose and impact in her life.

"At my age, I didn’t know I could make such an impact," she said. The vibrant colors, eclectic patterns, and accessories tell her story, as do objects that carry personal significance, like a cherished radio or a wooden stick used for traditional cooking.

The Granny Series is not just about fashion; it fosters a profound connection between generations while encouraging people, particularly the elderly, to embrace their individuality. Inspired by her grandmother's humor and courage, Ms. Kaumba has seen her project change lives, with several families now seeking her expertise to style their grandmothers.

Beyond mere aesthetics, Ms. Chola hopes her story serves as an appeal for self-love and acceptance, urging others to "live their lives and not worry about being judged by society." The bond formed through their collaborative journey highlights the transformative power of creativity, allowing Ms. Kaumba to understand more about her grandmother's life and struggles.

Ultimately, "Legendary Glamma" stands as a testament that age is no barrier to style, inspiration, or finding joy in everyday life. As their moments together are documented, both grandmother and granddaughter are redefining beauty standards and celebrating the joy of fashion for all ages.
