US Harper's Bazaar March 2011 : Kim Kardashian by Terry Richardson

Subscribers' cover is really nice. At least subscribers won't have to look at Kim's plastic mug!

Elisa Sednaoui by Theo Wenner

For all practical purposes, New York Fashion Week is a modern debutante ball. Make a splashy debut during the collections and you've arrived! The spring shows belonged to 23-year-old Elisa Sednaoui, the model and actress who is equal parts leggy temptress and sweetly smiling beauty. When she sauntered into shows like Proenza Schouler and Jason Wu last September, necks craned and tongues wagged.

But that's not because she was in the type of statementy runway plumage that gets the street-style photographers a-snapping. It's quite the opposite, actually. "I like things that are very minimal, and I never wear too many accessories," Sednaoui explains. She dresses with panache yet keeps it simple with barely there makeup and loose, natural hair. Yes, there's the occasional hat or edgy shoe, but Sednaoui forgoes over-the-top frippery. She selects elegantly low-key looks from favorite labels like Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Haider Ackermann, and Rad Hourani. But still, there's something about Sednaoui and her green-eyed beauty.


So who's that girl? Well, for starters, the "spiritual goddaughter" of stiletto sensei Christian Louboutin. (Sednaoui's half-French, half-Egyptian father is the architect of the shoe designer's Luxor house, a commission that begot a fast friendship.) She's also a newly minted member of Karl Lagerfeld's glossy posse and the designer's frequent red-carpet arm candy. Most recently, she's the face of Giorgio Armani's spring campaign.

Part of Sednaoui's charm comes from her delicate, hard-to-place accent. It's evidence of a childhood spent in her mother's native Italy, Cairo, and finally Paris, where she began modeling at the age of 15 and acting three years later. In 2006 she moved to New York, where she currently lives.

Along with bagging a major campaign, Sednaoui has been flexing her acting chops. She recently starred in Eastern Drift, by Lithuanian director Sharunas Bartas, and French director Christopher Thompson's Bus Palladium. She also cherishes her role as a saucy Saint-Tropez clubgoer in Lagerfeld's short film Remember Now, which debuted at Chanel's resort show last May. "Karl is such a smart, cultured person," she says. "He has taught me so much in one year." Good thing she's such a quick study.

Love the makeup on Eniko! She's totally a beauty!

 

[loladonna]

I've never been happier to get a subscriber issue.Thank goodness Bazaar has the sense to make two covers.

 

[MissMagAddict]

^Me too! Thank god Magdalena landed in my mailbox!!

The eds posted so far are all quite bland imho. As someone said, nothing really stands out, which is a shame because Bazaar used to have amazing editorials.

 

[ForChicSake]

would like to see the subscribers cover

 

[jackieonassis]

I like the shot of Hillary in the State Department, but the one in the corner just seems a bit odd. Why is she boxed in- too many things I am reading in to here!

Magda's cover and ed is lovely! I hardly liked Terry R. for Bazaar, but now I do.
Love What's Next by Luchford. I always love to see his studio pics.
Daniel Jackson's ed is very Elle-ish. I feel I have seen it from Italian Elle.
Eniko looks gorgeous as always

 

[Style Savvy]

Wait, so Magdalena is on the subscriber's cover? Wow. That is one stunning cover. I wish they would sell that instead of this trashy one right here.

 

[Wicked Halo]

I don't like Terry R. but the other cover and the editorial are pretty cute, ages away from Kim's!

 

[justaguy]

Great subscriber's cover!!

 

[ForChicSake]

wow hb did a good cover afterall

 

[Rotex]

the "what's bright now" editorial reminds me of an editorial in vogue russia featuring jeneil williams, aminata niaria, sedene blake and co...nothing new. although i like the editorial, i do see where people are coming from when black models are grouped together which kind of creates a segregation of beauty...i'm not sure how to put it
