The grunge look of the 90's has been given a glamorous twist in the photo series starring models Laura and Melissa by Janis Ann, a British photographer who splits her time between Amsterdam and London. Combining [Hollywood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hollywood-breakfast-club) hair and makeup courtesy of beauty artist Marta Roque with studded bras, baggy checkered button-ups and snapback baseball caps, the looks are casual and edgy.

Styled by Suzan Sea, the photo series starring models Laura and Melissa by Janis Ann really captures the era beautiful, even when it comes to the [Wu-Tang](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supreme-x-wutang-clan) tees and acid wash overalls. Shot on location on what appears to be the grounds of a school, the photoshoot has a youthful flavor in spite of the sensual nature of the poses and even the looks.
