The Twin Magazine 'Sitting Pretty' editorial combines geek chic and [glam grunge](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-october-collection) for a look seemingly caught in the middle and yet entirely its own. The outfits, which are perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon in specific and a [casual summer season](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit) in general, don't in any way compromise the woman's femininity. Although there is a tomboyish charm to each look, they allow people to focus on the innate beauty of the wearer--nothing more and nothing less.

Shot by photographer Amy Troost, the Twin Magazine Sitting Pretty editorial appears in the spring-summer edition of UK-based publication. It stars model Better Franke. The Dutch beauty was styled by Joanna Schlenzka, who focused on a wardrobe of [paisley prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Anna-Suis-SpringSummer-2025), beat-up converse and tartan patterns. Hairstylist Charles McNair and makeup artist Pep Gay finished the looks.
