If it was that common for stay-at-homers in the sixties to look like the Harper's Bazaar UK Rosie Huntington-Whiteley depictions, there needs to be an extreme retro revival right now.

The model, of [Victoria's Secret](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swimwear-redefined) and Transformers fame, is captured looking a tad bit tormented, but like the ultimate hot housewife. As if she's waiting for her own Mad Men-esque significant other to return home, she sips at a straight-up martini and models [flirty frocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity) for photographer Tom Munro. From her perfectly curled coif to her conservative curve-hugging ensembles, Huntington-Whiteley nails Old [Hollywood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hollywood-beauty-icon-lipsticks) glamor with every sultry glimpse.

The Harper's Bazaar UK Rosie Huntington-Whiteley editorial is a perfectly styled mix of Marilyn Munroe seduction, Jackie O outfits, and the killer coy confidence of a Bond babe.
