These hotel room covers are v boring.

I'm so mad looking at these covers: these 2 women are very beautiful and they chose these ?????
- the first one is like so unprepared and looks like a behind-the-scenes photo
- the second one gosh she looks soooooo pissed off. I can't believe there was no better shots.

And what exactly are these "awards" for?

 

[blueorchid]

Well, considering it's Harper's Bazaar the awards are for icons... naturally.

I wonder if Emilia will be the main / the most available cover?

She's one of those people whose presence is never captured that well in print, she's lovely-looking on screen but somehow 'fades' in most of the fashion magazine shoots I've ever seen.

As for the long faces on every cover, I can see how we might have moved beyond women grinning like vacant idiots on the front of magazines, yet the absence of even a hint of a friendly expression reminds you that covers do still have to be appealing, especially if you're trying to sell a party vibe. The glad rags are on, but nobody seems glad.

 

[MON]

Janelle Monáe’s cover looks lovely. The rest look bored.

There's already an existing thread for this issue.

I'm excited to see Jenna's full editorial.

 

[FAdS]

Emerald deserved better. This looks like the cover of an autobiography.
