Kinga Rajzak and Daga Ziober star in a dark yet [whimsical editorial](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow) in T Style Spring 2012 that focuses on the [feminine silhouettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/femininity-in-bloom) that are on their way back in style. The shoot is titled 'Cherchez La Femme' and features an almost creepy set of images of the two young models standing side-by-side that recalls the scene of the twin girls from 'The Shining.' Kinga and Daga wear similar looks throughout the story, including matching accessories such as black, chunky bauble necklaces, elbow-length gloves, hoop earrings and color-coordinated waist belts.

The 'Cherchez La Femme' editorial was shot by photographer Boo George and was styled by Vanessa Traina. The T Style Spring 2012 cover features songstress Lana Del Ray.
