Allure October 2016 : Kendall Jenner by Patrick Demarchelier

Allure's got to keep itself alive by any means. An awkward cover shot to match the awkward cover line.

I get this magazine every month, and I don't mind what the new editor is doing, because she hasn't shifted radically from the formula that Linda Wells created, but still, it often feels like there's a wind blowing through the magazine, because there's an empty sense to the pages, so I'm giving it until the end of the year before I abandon the title.
 
Hhmm...looks like her left boob is trying to steer into the opposite direction?

I like only the styling here, everything else is exceptionally bad. The weird cropping and all that space, Kendall's expression, and the fact that the cover looks downright amateur! A complete non-event!

Why is Kendall getting all these covers, and all of them seemingly related to Anna Wintour????
 
At the very least, Kendall's flashing a hint of a smile here, and a somewhat different expression than on her recent Vogue covers..

The cover does need a lot of work, IMO. Plus, there's a far more superior cover-worthy shot on Allure's site.
 
This should have been the cover shot, even though I don't hate the cover.

I actually love this... I love the colors, I love the mood, I love the hair, and she looks gorgeous.

For the first time, I am excited to see that editorial. She looks so carefree and happy. Her smile radiates from those photos posted above.

However, is it just me or does she always look different in covers compared to her editorial shots? She always looks more beautiful in her editorial than the covers.
 
I'm so sick of her. If she wasn't part of that clan, she'd be a mall fashion show model at best.
 
Terrible choice of picture for the cover. The 2 full body shots are lovely tho.
 
The styling fits more with Vogue than Allure. Kinda looks like this was a photoshoot for a Vogue feature and they decided just to make it an Allure cover and feature.

The cover is not good at all. The editorial is really nice. She's best when she's smiling. Other than that. Next.
 
She takes better pics of herself than this mediocrity... Too much airbrushing and retouching. They ruined what could have been an excellent set of pictures.
Demarchelier's simplistic photographs don't work with Kendall, she needs someone who can highlight her beauty in the right way like Inez & Vinoodh.
 
I like the Marc Jacobs shot, but the cover's awful.
 
I'll never forget when a TFS user coined Kendall as a "hamster staring forever into eternity"
 
The updated shot of the cover gives a fairly better idea of what it looks like, I now get the pose. Still, there's so much life and energy in all of the editorial previews, how was this not captured on the cover?

Love the shot of her in the yellow dress. She always looks more interesting when she smiles - take note editors!!!
 
excerpt from the interview:

On her famous friends: “This is going to sound really, really lame, but we all call ourselves the Super Natural Friend Group because we all have such cool individual lives and we’ve been dreaming about them since we were so young. I’m a Scorpio, so I stick to people. If I love you, I love you. If I don’t like you, you’re screwed.”
On technology: “I find it offensive if you’re with someone at a dinner and they’re just sitting on their phone the whole time. I take that personally. Like, am I not interesting enough for you to talk to me? It’s so crazy because even though we talk about trying to be present, everyone wants to be in the future now.”
On dating: “I just—my personal life, I’m so young. Whoever I’m dating, or going to be dating, is young, too. So I don’t think it’s figured out. Do you know what I mean? So if I don’t know what it is, I’d rather not let everyone else know.”
