When I first saw 'The Haunted' by Daniel Archer, I thought of [90s grunge fashion icons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freaks-store-1) like Courtney Love. Models Lara Lethbridge and Sally Gordon, who is also the stylist for this shoot, are adorned in [rosary beads, wooden crosses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintageinspired-jewelry) and angelic white knits. As they lounge languidly, scowling through [super-smoky eyes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/il-pranzo-campaign), I can't help but think that this is how grunge was meant to look--glamorous, but with a gritty edge.

For 'The Haunted' by Daniel Archer, the photographer was assisted by Phillip Papadis; Stephanie Walker is the artisan behind the models' makeup and hair.
