The Vogue UK August 2012 'Daydream Believer' editorial hones in on a series of academic looks. As the world's major fashion houses concentrate on the coming fall season during the summer months, it follows that the Vogue publication has chosen to focus on the 2012-2013 academic year, and all the darling ensembles that will come with it.
Black and white plaid dresses and thick cherry red oxford heels have been worked into the Daydream Believer photoshoot on behalf of stylist
Francesca Burns. Many of these pieces are explicitly retro, echoing the prototypical ensembles of 1960s college-bound women. Terry Richardson captured the vintage skirts, coats and capes, and considering his intensive following, many will begin looking towards autumn.
