Issue 180

For December, Dazed takes a stroll on the wild side, with the cover photographed by Daniel Jackson and styled by Dazed's senior fashion editor Karen Langley that celebrates the Where The Wild Things Are clothing collection created for Opening Ceremony. Modelled by inimitable supermodel Abbey Lee, the exclusive fashion showcase is an homage to the magical children's book adaptation by Spike Jonze, which is about to explode on the big screen in the UK.
