This is bad. I really like Taylor's music and don't have an issue with her on magazines, generally, but this is AWFUL. The photoshop makes her look like a different person. Coco Rocha in a bad blonde wig? Never thought I'd say this, but this makes her US Vogue September cover look like a masterpiece.
Something is really off about Edward picking Taylor for the cover again, she was on the same issue just two years ago. I know for some editors that is no time at all, but Edward has been making some really interesting and fresh choices for cover stars. To repeat a mega-celeb like Taylor so soon, when many others have yet to grace the cover under him, feels really lazy; especially for the first issue of a new decade.
The cover is horrible and so disappointing. I have to say I haven’t been a fan of McDean’s work for years and this is a real mess. Interesting that it’s a very similar colour palette to Dua’s January cover last year: beige and red. I like Taylor but nothing about this works for me.
How strange. I don’t mind the cover personally but the retouch in the first editorial image is way off. I get that they were going for that whole bombshell vibe, but still. Feels very against her grain.
I actually like it but the retouching is out of control, both on the cover and throughout the editorial. Why? She’s a beautiful young woman, what’s there to tweak?!
