Reprint from the November 08 issue??
I wish Bazaar would do more original covers - they do some of the better ones of all the editions IMO. Especially considering they don't have access to alot of big name models or celebs.

To recycle an issue from 8 months ago is a bit weird.

I'm excited to see the portfolio on Aussie models though!

nice use of reprint. i like it, thanks!

 

[cottonmouth13]

^agreed. i love the font that says "Drew".

 

[mikel]

it looks nice but I agree that it's stupid to use an 8 months old pic.

Perfect use of a reprint! But isn't this a cover from 2008?

 

[Mchunu]

^yes, November 2008 as birdyandme mentioned.

 

[MON]

Is this out now!? I'm definitely going to buy this

 

[birdyandme]

^ Comes out today (Mon) in Aus.

 

[MON]

So that's like next week in the Philippines! Sigh....

 

[kellydior]

very weird and boring to use this again but I guess it's to promote grey gardens in australia....

 

[peachescream]

^ yes i was reading the issue today and it mentions that grey gardens is showing on showtime this month. it was an ok issue, loved seeing all the aussie models (even if some were reprints).

So that's like next week in the Philippines! Sigh....

One week is not that long. Sometimes I have to waiti an entire month before something comes out in my place.

I dobn't mind the mild glamour of this - I like the colours - but surely Australian Bazaar used to have far more adventurous covers than this?

 

[Miss Dalloway]

^^It did, and way more original ones, this is just a shame to me!

 

[MON]

i like the cover... hope that the contents are good. any previews!?

 

[Tiffannie]

It's alright, nothing special. Nicer than a lot of other Bazaar covers

They used to do some great covers! Kind of like the subscriber covers of Elle or US Bazaar, except they were newsstand covers.

Seriously though, the last 6 or so issues have been reprints from US Bazaar. Pretty much month by month. This is the first time they've used such an old one though. Perhaps it was because they refused to use Angie's candid pic

Fingers crossed next month is an original cover, but I won't be holding my breath.

 

[Cicciolina]

This is not great... I wish they would stop treating readers like they were idiots.

From the lovemore blog
I really like this editorial, and the girl is stunning. There is also

a special feature on the rise of the supermodels coming out of Australia with 4 editorials (Pania Rose, Catherine McNeil, Abbey Lee Kershaw and Emma Balfour)
