Niiiice

Love her. Always have, always will!
And this cover, even though it’s pretty simple, works perfectly. It’s fresh.

Lara's not getting much of a look-in on the front of the travel edition seen on newsstand.co.uk...

I wouldn't mind that free gift though.

Love this!

Lara looks cute and very fresh-faced! I'm liking this new direction which magazines are taking with her. The hypersexualised glamazon got old after a while.

Each time I see the Freuds in or on magazines I can't help but laugh at Ab Fab's Magda (Patsy's EIC boss) and her wisecracks:

'Don't do anything on anyone called Freud. I don't like them. Bunch of no-talents with an ancestor. I'm not running a bloody charity. Just because some old granddaddy invented peni*-envy doesn't mean I have to lick their boots!'

British ELLE and American ELLE are doing it so good! Love their covers, nothing overproduced, effortless.

Its okay. I wish the pose looked less stiff.

She looks gorgeous.

Somehow Lara manages to look always so different, but you can always tell it’s her, an icon.

 

[tigerrouge]

I know she's always been ambivalent about modelling, but as a whole, Lara seems to have lost whatever interest she really had, and along with that, her spark.

As a result, my ability to be interested in her work has also gone. For me, this cover looks like a bored call girl dressed up for speciality tastes.

It feels like she just does enough to get by, and to keep her name out there, so she can earn money to go off and live a nice, quiet life. That's great for her, but it doesn't make her images a compelling purchase for me.

I'd love to see a return to the old Lara.

I love that editorial! Stunning. I’m seeing a lot of better cover options.

My interest with UK Elle is seriously back

Lara works it, but I find the styling very questionable.

A missed opportunity to have Lara Stone on your cover, if you ask me. This looks more suited to a magazine like Dazed! I'm incredibly disappointed that Anne-Marie Curtis seems to have ditched the bold covers under her tenure. Those covers with Cara Delevingne and Rihanna were the best British Elle covers in years! This is just a total eyesore.
