I love Dua but not this cover, I really don't like that thing on her head.. I don't think it fits with her style.
I guess this might not the newsstands cover though considering it has nothing written?

Dua kinda represents that idea of fun! The idea of a couture swimsuit is fun...
But this cover is not fun at all. A fail

 

[Benn98]

It had all the makings for a stellar cover on paper - Carin Backoff, Due Lipa, who we all know is very photogenic, so I'm not sure how they've mucked this up.
And can we stop with this Chanel swimsuit? It's very difficult to get right due to the kitschiness. That headpiece is too much.

Saw Dua Lipa in the title and got excited. Now I am so disappointed. I think she saved this cover from being worse.

Looks like Irina Shayk

Dua PHOTOGRAPHS well, sad that Nina wasn’t able to produce that! Terrible styling. Terrible execution. What an utter waste

Indeed, like her younger sister.

I'm not sure which one is worse.....

 

[Anna147]

She always have such a fun and stylish vibe. They definitely didn't get that...
I got excited too, when I saw her name, but it's really nothing special

Carin Backoff needs to back off from photography.

Carin Backoff needs to back off from photography.

Hahahaha

 

[vogue28]

Never understand the Dua Lipa hype and I've yet to be convinced she can photograph well, or is even worthy of appearing on fashion magazines as such. She has the same vacant expression in both cover images and I do not appreciate Carin Backoff's style of photography, at all.

 

[[Piece Of Me]]

This is pretty major for her! Sadly the cover itself is not so exciting, her British Vogue one was much better.

 

[Benn98]

Carin Backoff needs to back off from photography.

No, no. Normally she's rather good, actually. Especially on location. Maybe it's the styling, or Dua Lipa, or Gan's decision to shoot this in studio.
