The Anja Konstantinova x Gadir Rajab portrait series is the latest gritty phootoshoot to grace the pages of Australian fashion publication Oyster. The spontaneous editorial is said to document the aftermath of a wild night of karaoke and dancing.

Posing at a [Chinatown arcade setting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wildest-ones-yet), Priscilla's model Anja goes wild playing Asian dancing games and lounging at an empty cafe. The [gritty photo series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks) features impromptu portraits that are captured in the moment. The raw images are then layered atop one another and collaged to create a memorable fashion story.

The Anja Konstantinova x Gadir Rajab editorial exudes a carefree sense of spirit and embraces a wardrobe of [youthful raver fashions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gdc-x-hysteric-glamour). The edgy model proves she can have a good time anywhere she goes as she takes over a local city arcade and lets out her inner child.
