I'm rooting for HTSI; it's not at the level of D Repubblica or M Le Monde but it's not too far off. I'm starting to enjoy their fashion issues at least. Even if they didn't manage to grab onto say MAS, Templer or Barbieri who have contributed for them before in this case, it appears they've been able to lock Piergiorgio in for casting.
Karolina's edit is pretty great for the most part, especially in print (I always feel that the oversized format does wonders for their stories). Even if I'm not a fan of Amy's photography and am indifferent to Beat's styling, there's a good range of looks and individual images shot in the studio and on the streets of NY. And if course Karolina carries it all off with flair; she's golden.
I just get annoyed by the fact that the cover material is the same as the pages within; makes it very hard to keep any issues in good condition over time. Also the insistence on throwing a single ad page in between the main editorial (sometimes you're lucky and they don't do this) feels a bit cheap and breaks the flow of the story.
