Eek.. so much dullness, couldn't they use the inside page as the cover?, it's much more enthusiastic.

It's looks like the US Vogue May 2009 cover with the models. But instead of nine, there's six and instead of having African American models, they have Asian models. It's kinna bland.

[Bellaly]

yeah, that was my first thought, I tlooks like the US Vogue Supermodels issue.
But this time with Karlie , which I loooove

[elsaskywalker]

OH MY GOD!
Du Juan, Lily Donaldson, Anna Maria J, Constance Jablonski, Karlie Kloss and Liu Wen! + Jessica
What a great thing to begin my day, THANKS TARSHA!

I like the idea behind the cover (top models!) but would a little colour and expression have been too much to ask for?

Too much photoshopping...

This reminds me of all the editorials you get in Korean fashion mags with stories from 6-months-ago-Italian Vogue redone on a shoe string budget. Horrific butchering of concept and disgustingly unoriginal. It's one thing to be inspired by another magazine, and another to do a total soulless copy. Anna J is even used in the same spot in both covers! For a magazine about fashion and art presenting this to readers is embarrassing!

The only thing that makes me smile （in a black-humour sense) is that on Vogue China it's the Chinese girls who are the minority group. Can you imagine US Vogue with 4 Chinese girls and 2 blondes? I think in 50 years we will look back on these covers as very weird.

I love it, I think it's much better than US Vogue's. Stam's supplement is lovely too.

[Lackuiew]

Only Karlie looks great

[MON]

OMG! I love it! Very US VOGUE May 2009. Love that they mixed Asian models and American Models! The colors are dull but still love it! Imagine the ed of these girls

But it's badly photoshopped. You can see that it's cropped then combined

[BeautyisDiverse]

It doesn't look that bad.

[missbluejean]

I like it.

They all look good, but the cover is really dull.

I don't take it like that.
I took it like:
on the right side, the last generation Best Top models, and on the left the new generation of models... i guess that's not about Chinese models but more like new generation?!

[McQueezy]

^I see it like that too.
I really think it's so much fresher and cleaner than the US Vogue, and the spacing of the girls is infinitely better.
