Beauty never ages! Middle-aged and elderly women in China pose in their bikinis for pageant which shows that you don't have to be young to be fabulous

But one contest with a difference in China shows that older ladies can be just as fabulous, as they posed in their bikinis and elaborate costumes.
The show featured over 500 women, with some as old as 80.
They stood together and posed for photographs at the pageant in northern China's Tianjin Municipality.


Some of the women brandished parasols and wore angel wings as they struck poses for waiting photographers.


















According to Chinese state media, the pageant was held to encourage positive attitudes about ageing.


It is the second year that the pageant, which is run by a local charity, has taken place.
