First cover looks mesmerazing,
reminiscent of VI 2009 cover by Meisel (Selezneva/ Sasonkina and Anna J,),
same pose and piercing gaze,2 models on 3/4 profile and on straight face, neutral colors / colour scheme adjustment and rather similar styling.
A "models of color" version of a striking cover which looks almost as amazing (minus use of light and some visual effects more sophisticated on VI mainly)
The writing on the right reminds me of those Vogue Paris cover around 2003/ 1997 era that I love, I really don't mind, it somehow even adds value to the picture.
