very nice.

I was immediately reminded of this:

iconography

The "and you thought she was just the girl next door" tagline sort of kills it but this is an exceptionally fierce image. Very intense - if a celebrity cover has to be done then this is the way to do it. The whole look reminds me of this picture of Nadja that was done for Bazaar (I think) waaaaaay back in the day. Gorgeous colors.

EDIT: Mikel, I didn't even see your post but yes that's exactly the picture I was thinking of!!

INTENSE.
I love it.
The fashion issue...can't wait to see the content ^_^

Mikel, I immediately thought of that Nadja cover too. I don't see the fascination with Hudson, I really don't.

i thought this was such a fantastic cover until i saw the nadja version. does anyone know what issue of bazaar that was?

i was ready to hate this because i had never seen a kate hudson cover i like but this is actually really good

Hate Kate Hudson, but this is an amazing cover. She looks like an overly airbrushed painting (obviously she'd have to, since Kate looks NOTHING like this)

that's the right word for it!
I love it!

Shes giving me a little of Daria in the picture?

I don't know how to edit my post :'( But...
