I was confused at first because the cover month says April. Yup, this should be their May issue.
The shoot reminds me of album covers before Gaga, Katy, and GGGB Rihanna came into the scene—the ones with handwritten/graffiti-like typographies all over the album covers. It's very nostalgic in a good way.
This and her TIME editorial are so much better than Radical Optimism's official album shoot. I don't really correlate her new sound to beach.
I like it! The colouring is cold but doesn't feel lifeless, and I'm massively into Patti Wilson's styling here, which feels fresh on Dua Lipa. The huge voluminous hair doesn't overpower Dua and works well with the Marc Jacobs. Every last element is working for me here. Another terrific cover from American Elle!
