Based on blatant photographic evidence, I'm going to assume that the subject of 'Home Works' by Miles Aldridge was probably married for her looks. Model Caroline Trentini is the blonde bombshell in this editorial, and expertly succeeds at looking quite clueless in the kitchen.

With a bored expression and glazed-over eyes, this [hysterical housewife](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity) finds herself exasperated on a cluttered countertop while [baking a cake](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artful-cake) that ends up caving in. Found in [Vogue Italia](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles), 'Home Works' by Miles Aldridge references the Stepford Wives stereotype in a way that is simultaneously delightful and demonic.
