See, told ya I was sheltered. But I've never picked a playboy up or really ever thought about them so I guess that's my excuse.

October's Playmate, Tuuli (Storm Models), is photographed by Rankin.
surprising team for this new formule...
but honestly i don't know what they try to do... so i'm still confused... about the direction they are taking... I mean Playboy is Playboy... you can add a touch of fashion it remains Playboy... so they must have EXCELLENT contributors for EXCELLENT articles and editorials!!!!
If you're not doing something sexy-erotico-porny... well it's no more Playboy and then has nooooo sense at all!!!!

Is Eric Revel the one I think about??? the one on LCI????

... but no i'm still confused....

having said that, I don't like the styling of the cover. it makes her look so old and 80s.

thanks, diesel!.
She also has a nude scene in her next movie, 99F (in theatres september 26) and from what i've seen she's got an amazing body! I like her... And i'm glad to see French playboy take a more tastful and artistic direction, though this is the first playboy cover i've ever seen, actually

I really think they are trying to do a new Lui (an old french erotic magazine which did feature very interesting articles....)

By the way the magazine is out on 29th of Sept.

I hope the extra F in my post was not deliberate.

she also looks superb in Vivante!.. I wonder if she's ever skipped nudity in her films..

I must admit that i'm a bit surprised they took this new direction and really wonder WHY. Anyway if someone buy it just tell us how it it.

About Vahina, i saw her in deauville and didnt think she was really pretty BUT she's really kind. Here are some of my personal pictures . The guy with her is her boyfriend in case you didnt know

Well, it's not the first time fashion meets Playboy Magazine. Remember Cindy Crawford? She was the first modern supermodel to pose nude for Playboy Magazine, in a shoot by photographer Herb Ritts in 1988. The second time was in 1998 with more revealing nude pictorial. That issue was one of the magazine's all-time "biggest" sellers.

It's all about selling! Not to mention the big store that they opened in London.. Oxford Street, the shopping heart of the British capital.

And, women also buy Playboy Magazine..

I had no idea France had Playboy magazine as well. And from what DieselMax said, this magazine seems really cool!

Hmm, this is kinda intresting. And confusing...More excited about the change than the actual cover. I don't know how French Playboy has been before, but I hope this change does them good. How will it turn out...

Sometimes when flesh mags go arty, it's because they've reached 'last chance saloon' before they go bust - I've seen it happen even in the days before the internet posed a threat to print. Either that, or they're trying to respond to the launch of niche erotic/intellectual magazines such as Paradis, and incorporate some of their flavour.
