Thread Name: Folk in Vogue
Subject: RE: Folk in Vogue
No, it's a 12 page article entitled 'Merrie England: From the highly garlanded band Mumford and sons to Alexander McQueen's couture clad corn-dolly, folk is enjoying an unprecedented revival...'

On the music side it features The Staves, Louise Jordan, Laura Connolly the clog dancer, Johnny Flynn, song collector Sam Lee and the rest is English traditional festival characters shot in studio. There's also a one page article that sets up the photographs.
Probably the 'wrong sort of folk' for some but we're definitely on the radar. My wife showed me the article and I read with mixed feelings as I've been doing a series of images on some of the same subject matter, but Vogue have spiked my guns. Ah well.
