Can't deny that I never swore when I read the thread title :ninja:. But it's certainly better than her October 2009 cover.
 
well, i don't like it, but i dont hate it too.. it's standard
 
Just got this through the door as well. UGH at Lily. Not again. :/

The mag's full of the lovely new F/W ads though - Prada, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Burberry - loving every single one so far! :) I'll write up a full review in a minute if no one else beats me to it.
 
I swore too. I mean I understand last years (she had an album out) but why now. It's an ok sub cover but I would have prefered someone else.
 
Review:

Lily: The Rebirth (8 pages)
Model: Lily Allen
Photographer: Rankin
Stylist: Anne-Marie Curtis

The Woman (18 pages)
Model: Ali Stephens
Photographer: Matthias Vriens McGrath
Stylist: Anne-Marie Curtis

Power Trip (10 pages)
Model: Ali Stephens
Photographer: Tesh
Stylist: Heather Mary Jackson

Whole issue comes to 203 pages.
 
I was filled with horror at the atrocity that would surely be the cover, but actually it's not nearly half as bad as what I was expecting.
 
Lily Allen again? I get her appeal, but why so soon? I'm beginning to feel UK Elle is just recycling the three working ideas they've had these past two years now...

And anyway, both of Lily's October '09 covers had so much more oomph than this. Here she just looks a little like Björk but without the personality. If there's one thing Lily has it's attitude, so why take it away from her?
 
SO much better than her last cover.

I love Lily, but I was surprised she'd appeared on the cover again, but pretty much just thankful she's got a good cover!

Aside from the F/W ads, I find this to be a pretty yawn-worthy issue.
 
I love the cover! She's so beautiful. The Woman ed is stunning. Love the idea
 
I like the cover, Lily looks nice. And two Ali eds, that's great!
 
I have no problem with Lily but ELLE UK is becoming slightly predictable with cover choices.:rolleyes:

Double shot of Ali!:woot: Fabulous!
 
The cover looks stunning, although i did roll my eyes when i saw the title.
Kind of surprising yet another cover for lily so close to her last cover, but she looks ten times better than her last cover
The editorial content is fantastic, although when i read it was ali in both i was kind of disappointed, but she looks fantastic.
