The Vogue UK June 2012 'London Calling' photoshoot showcases the work of American model Arizona Muse. Just as the title would suggest, the images take viewers on a tour of multiple urban English hubs, displaying quaint diners and colossal bridges, which are two common British traits. Photographer Ben Morris also captured Olympic ring circles, echoing the hype currently surrounding the upcoming games that are set to take place in the city.
Muse displayed her classic short coif: the same one that she has stayed true to in her most recent spreads. Stylist Miranda Almond selected retro ensembles for the series, opting for professional a-line skirts and tied silk handkerchiefs. The 1950s feel given off by these ensembles works well here, merging Muse's boyish appeal with overtly feminine apparel.
