I agree about the colour combinations, but it's her punk like look that really throws me off. The combination of the heavy eyeliner with that hideous hairstyle... :cry: But, I love the magazine so I will probably pick up the issue anyway.

It looks like the old her... back when she had a mullet:shock: Not diggin it.

it actually doesnt look as bad as i thought at first, but its still not a great pic of her
 
She's seen better days, though it's mainly the dress I dislike...
I've been known to defend bad hair :ninja: :lol:
 
a review from bwgreyscale.com:

best edit: filippa resort edit. by carolyn cerf dudzeele. 1 or 2 sweet bikini pics. otherwise its just like an 80s or 90s ralph or CK ad. not surprising, filippa is ralph's best model since liisa winkler. these could be a lot hotter, rawer, dirtier. these are pretty anti-septic resort pics, very ralph clean cut, very kelly/calvin klein 1990 east hampton georgica porch outdoors look...also just not as hot as gorgeous and sensuous filippa deserves. still filippa is by far the best thing in jan 06 elle.

cover/2nd best edit: scar johansson shot by bensimon. another flashback kind of vibe- scar is heavily made up & kind of dewy photo style looks like late 80s or 90s elle. this kind of glossy, brightly lit, make up, dewy, extra-human 'sexy' look may have worked in elle france & us in 1985, but it looks just demeaning & dumb in 2005. bensimon has been repeating the same studio formula for almost 25 years in elle...its really dull. scar looks ok here, its her super glam look in make up & poses...if she were naked she would look like a soft-focus Penthouse pet circa 1980. its that retro & that vacant dehumanizing. on the other hand, I saw her in person circa 2001 & she was tiny!! a little petite dumpling...[circa ghost world]. since then she has been made over & re-styled about 100 times & her 2005 look is impressively glam & pretty...and also very fake seen in these Penthouse-like fantasy pics by bensimon. equally anti-septic to the filippa pics but more embarassing cos scar's posed 'sexy' and shot 'glam'-- but filippa's natural outdoorsy sensuousness is a billion times hotter ...at least to me.

look at filippa on the newsstand. youll see scar's Penthouse glam pics reproduced elsewhere, in other gossip columns. at best thumbs in the middle, realistically, SLIGHT THUMBS DOWN for wasting Filippa at what could have beena hotly sexy resort bikini edit.
 
This is a terrible issue! All of the clothes in the editorials are awful, awful, awful! And their picks for Spring look exactly like their picks for last spring (I'm a little tired of the flat thong sandals, turquoise/coral, and white knit dresses)!! Skip it.
