As much as I hated grunge as a kid, I can not help but drool over the 'We're Being Watched by Experts' in Test Magazine. Model Amber Le Bon executes the [grunge style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freaks-store-1) perfectly while mixing in a fresh new appeal to the popular style of the 90s.

Every shot is so darn [effortless](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knys-fall-2025) and the badass appeal basically oozes off of Amber Le Bon. The 'We're Being Watched by Experts' in Test Magazine was shot by Niclas Heikkinen and styled by Anders Sølvsten Thomsen. Be sure to check out the gallery for more grunge glam.
