The Summer 2010 i-D ‘Meet Me At The Corner’ editorial brings the heat in a story of two strangers having a sexy one-night stand. What’s so special about this [casually-styled shoot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles) is that models Behati Prinsloo and Jamie Strachan are a [real-life it-model couple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-homecoming)—and you can tell.

The spread was photographed by Kayt Jones, styled by Pippa Vosper and features clothing exclusively from the [online boutique](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/end-and-cp-company), TheCorner.com
