The Vogue UK May 2010 issue pays homage to the USA in an editorial dubbed 'Born in the USA.' Alasdair McLennan shoots Karlie Kloss in vintage-looking, 70s-inspired photos fit with a grainy composition. 17-year-old model Karlie Kloss may be the perfect choice for this shoot, perhaps at home posing at desks and lockers.
Stylist Kate Phelan incorporates gingham, denim, plaid and tropicana prints with Americana emblems such as baseball, lockers, milkshakes, and bubblegum. 'Born in the USA' in Vogue UK May 2010 is U.S. nationalism at its best!
