Thanks for the review, Sensation!!

I'm looking forward to see what Seliger will do with Missy & Lorde. So far it looks good, better than good actually. A far cry from the poor man's Leibovitz features he does for Vanity Fair & American Harper's.
I look at Missy's shots and I simply cannot imagine the styling on anyone else. And that was always her appeal, I think. On anyone else this would look ridiculous and obnoxious. This is what sets US Elle apart. Their cover stars can never be predicted and that keeps them fresh. Super glad Missy got this cover. Her, Hype Williams, and Busta Rhymes' music videos provided so much inspiration for fashion designers and photographers, it's odd to see them not rewarded when artists and the likes are always featured. But better late than never (a single V cover don't count).

It's also great to see Bensimon in Elle again. Hope they'll give him covers, but I doubt that as his work thrives on energy and lightness, the very concepts which Robbie Myers detest for her covers.

The big music edit also sounds promising. Kacy Hill is in there, so that's enough for me.

MISSY!!!

This is entirely unexpected and so FRESH. Yes!! I love that Missy has been getting her most deserved recognition over the past year. She really changed the game.

The Lorde cover is gorgeous - her face is just breathtaking in that shot. I'm a fan of hers - "Green Light" is the most addictive song I've heard this year.
