Zara's naturally pretty enough but this cover is so unflattering! She looks terrible with her hair pulled back in a bun like that... not a good look at all. Also, the headlines of this magazine are so tacky. I mean, I know that Tatler is geared towards the uber rich, royalty, and such but do they even read it? Like seriously... it seems like a nouveau rich thing to do.

Looking through the issue, there are some nice things:
There is a great shoot using Morph!
And a fashion shoot with One Direction and loads of girls.
The horses portfolio is also visually amazing.
It just all gets lost and ruined by the tackiness of Tatler and them trying to be quirky yet posh!

I actually like the concept and colours but her expression doesnt work, this would have looked better with a model

^ But the whole point of Tatler is its focus on society. You can't really do a feature in a society mag and have some high fashion no-name (at least to the average person on the street) model posing around. The only way you'd get a model for a feature is if it was Liz Hurley or someone like that, which is hardly going to pique the interest of anyone at tFS.

I actually think Zara is quite a fresh choice for a Tatler cover, given that we know Tatler will choose within certain parameteres for their cover star. Unlike some of the other society girls that earn covers (Pippa M, Poppy Delevingne [sp??]), Zara seems genuinely hard working and unaffected. She is not the type of person who 'works' (read: goes to parties and does some modelling for their mothers brand of posh pashminas, becomes a brand ambassador or whatever) until she marries, and then just sits around, shops, gets beauty treatments and has babies. So, I think the choice of her for the cover is more acceptable than the usual Tatler cover girls. However, she's not a stunning woman, but they could have done her justice a bit better.
