Model Karlie Kloss turned down a dancing career for modeling and what a great decision it turned out to be.

"For our autumn/winter 2010 campaign we wanted to capture the mood and atmosphere of the stormy seascapes of J.M.W Turner's paintings and the aesthetic of The French Lieutenant's Woman; both inspirations for the autumn/winter 2010 Aquascutum collection," said Belinda Earl, the label's ceo.
