The Interview Russia 'Neo-Grunge' editorial puts a modern spin on the '90s grunge look. Although there only appears to be some minute differences between the two, they are enough to refine the style for contemporary times. From the use of slimmer pants, if still ripped up, to printed hoodies and more layers, the outfits are much more experimental. In a way, there is a bit of a futuristic appeal to the looks as well.
Shot by photographer Chad Pitman, the Interview Russia 'Neo-Grunge' editorial was captured on location at Dead Horse Bay, an abandoned New York beach. It stars Hot List male model Miles Langford. The United Kingdom looker was styled by Gro Curtis in pieces from Saint Laurent by Hedi Slimane and Yohji Yamamoto.
