This spectacular 'Like Mother Like Daughter' series was captured by photographer Yolanda Liou. Based in London, she teamed up with fashion blogger Lilly-Jo Cullen for this beautiful project. The story of this series pays tribute to the streets of Brixton -- the place where Lilly's mom grew up.
The shoot will evoke a sense of nostalgia for 90s babies. The formula for 'Like Mother Like Daughter' combined stunning old pictures of Lilly's mother in her youth and placed them beside current photographs of Lilly dressed in recreated retro fashion by Beyond Retro.
Side by side, Lilly and her mother could pass for sisters. The series is so beautiful, and it gracefully presents the changes of generations but also the much-loved similarities between them.
