I totally agree. I think a group cover shot would have been 10 times more effective and memorable. The covers are so boring and dated for such a fantastic issue, so far.

I think a group shot would have made a much stronger impression...an almost "here we all are - we are gorgeous" kind of statement.

totally agree with the group shot thing. they should have made a very 90s looking group shot for the cover, that would be amazing. those covers are so boring, i was awfully disappointed when i saw naomi's... i think the best one is sessilee's, and her ed is surely one of my favorites of the recent issues of VI.

^^Yes. That would have been perfect. It would have conveyed the message far better than one pretty face of color on the cover (even if it is a foldout, you still only see one face when it's on the shelf).

^ I would hope that a group shot would be in this issue. I like the fact that some get solo covers but its a bitter sweet moment because the only reason they got solo covers are because they are in a 'special' Vogue It. Issue. I would love to see something like what a_la_Balenciaga posted!

Hoping Alek, Yordanos Teshager , Georgie Baddiel , Gaye McDonald , Ayan Elmi , Rahma , Mia Aminata Niaria , Ajuma Nasenyana , Kinée Diouf , Wakeema Hollis , Jeneil Williams ect.

Get their fair share or make a appearance in the issue. They certainly deserve to, some more then others. The few names I mentioned are just a few of many. I still think a group shot would look amazing.

**Can anyone verify this,although to me seeing is proof and it looks to be true. Now I just can't hall off and buy it since I want the Naomi one...b/c surely she has a the front one too?! Looks like I'll wait until I see her's.
I thought it would be Thicker..but I'll se tomorrow when I get mine..still dabating if i want the Jourdan or sessisle as the main cover??

I haven't followed this entire thread, so if this is a repost, feel free to delete. I apologize in advance if that is the case! But I thought this was interesting...

****Update: This just in: Apparently, Sessilee and Naomi are the only models in the issue that have full spreads! Every other girl has only one picture.

As for Arlenis, look for her again in this September's Vogue - she's got a full spread!
