Tough 90s-Inspired Lookbooks

The New OBEY WOMENS Capsule Collection Was Lensed with Attitude

Photographer Alexis Gross was behind the camera for OBEY WOMENS' most recent editorial.

The shots starred female muses Lillian Gates and Rene Ferry. The two posed together and on their own, against the backdrop of a dated living room's carpet, curtains and wooden walls. With the combination of their surroundings and the apparel they show off, the models, who were styled by Amanda Merten, are taken right back to the 1990s. This is further aided by their hairstyles and the accessories they wear.

Included in the new OBEY WOMENS capsule collection are velvety zip-up sweaters, pullovers and t-shirts -- all of which feature either the brand's name or the image of handcuffs dangling from a pair of bright red lips.
