The styling is beyond bad.

The outfit of the cover is hideous. I'm so sorry for saying this, but the clothes looks very like a streetwalker piece (quoting Joan Rivers)

Wolf in sheeps clothing meets Frys peppermint cream!

I like Hailey but this is a terrible cover. Less is more. Who styles like this? A showy coat, what looks like mohair two piece, and patent leather thigh boots? Cosmo is known for their simple, straightforward covers. Looks like they’re trying to turn it into Glamour.

Why does her face look like an avatar from IMVU?
Who photoshops these?

She always photographs well but the styling and photography here looks chep and makes her look like a preteen. The editorials are even cheaper and belong to a city nightlife guide.

Kind of sad that no one rose to the occasion when photographing her this year. She’s so pretty, but the styling is always either dull or, in this case, looks like some trashy/awful bratz doll aesthetic. Edward should’ve given her the May print cover, rather than a throwaway digital cover - and gotten a more notable team together to shoot her.

Forget Halle. Why is nobody commenting on the fried eggs in post #2?

 

[Hchloe]

She deserves better than Cosmo, what is her team playing at?

I'm kinda loving the green-on-green art direction, which instantly took me back to Cosmopolitan covers from the 80s.
