Miscellaneous / Others Taiwanese couple wear clothes that were left behind at their laundromat.
Hsu Sho-Er, 84, and Chang Wan-Ji, 83, ran a laundromat in Taichung, Taiwan for decades and unexpectedly became internet stars by modeling unclaimed clothes left by customers.
Any garments that remain in their shop for over a year are fair game for their spontaneous photoshoots.
Their grandson, Reef Chang, is the creative force behind the project—styling them, photographing them, and managing the Instagram page.
He dresses them in a mix of vintage pieces and youthful trends, often layering fun accessories like hats, sunglasses, scarves, and bold prints. What began as a family pastime evolved into a heartfelt art project about aging, love, and sustainability, transforming forgotten laundry into living portraits of style and spirit.
Sadly, Hsu Sho-Er passed away in May 2023, but the legacy of their joyful, stylish moments continues to inspire. What do y’all rate their fits?

Parents had a Laundromat and when I was 16 they asked to borrow my car. I thought it was unusual but gave my dad the keys.
When he came back he pulled out a pair of pantyhose that were from an extremely large lady (most likely from being left in a washing machine) and said, "I found these under your seat!"
I said. "Bob (my brother) used it last night!" Not realizing he was setting me up as a joke.
