Pretty in Punk

I love Corinne Day, ever since I was 17 and did my first photo project on her iconic Fifteen shoot for The Face I have been enamoured by her style and representation of grunge and punk subculture.
These shots are from 'Pretty in Punk' - Chinese Vogue September 2008. I often find that there is something quite tacky about grunge editorials...perhaps because of all the subcultures, grunge has always seemed to be the most aesthetically unconscious. But Day pulls it off every time due to her documentary approach to the theme...and in this case, some sharp styling :)
