Woah, Naomi's body looks awesome! Those legs. Her edit is actually quite interesting, oddly enough due to the posing. Looks like she gave her usual villainy drag-queen poses a miss. A welcoming reprieve, if you ask me!
Yes, these edits are not the best, but I'd take it over American Vogue's overthought and regurgitated dreck! It's like a darker and more serious version of what we've seen there.
 
Naomi's closeup with the PUMA piece would have been a killer cover
 
It's not exactly the worst Italian Vogue cover and cover story I've seen (since the Meisel shakeup) but I'm not jumping for joy at the sight of this. The cover itself looks so rushed and thrown together, with the composition just looking so.. off and half-arsed. Lara's editorial is so much better but is quite repetitive. Lara really does look fantastic though and I cannot imagine another model pulling this off so well as she has here.
 
WOW! Lara's editorial made up for that interesting cover! The editorial I really love and i might be the first non Meisel issue I will buy.

Naomi in Fenty x Puma is amazing. Like, Benn98 said Naomi change up her usual posing is nice. For awhile she was stiff and now she has some movement like old Naomi.

Arizona looks fantastic too. I'm so happy she is working again.

I think there should have been three different covers with Lara, Naomi and Arizona.
 
Lara's story is weird. The individual shots work but the whole thing is boring.
She looks so detached...

Naomi is great. What's going on in the last photo? What's happening on her neck??

In Arizona's ed the stare in the first pic is intense and magnetic, though I said above that I didn't like the ed. Love that pic.
 
The cover is pretty disappointing, but I absolutely adore the main editorial! It´s typical Klein, but Lara x Klein is always a winning combination for me. She looks like the ultimate power woman in the story, totally in control and running the world around her. Love.

Naomi´s story is very good as well - one of her best editorials in recent years for sure.
 
^If her breast was covered a little more that first shot from the editorial would have made a stunning cover. (nothing against a nip slip, you just don't see it on covers)
 
I hope one day the main edit coming out in real HQ

PD: Andres Sanjuan looks soo HOOOT :buzz:

As much as I love Lara, I think she's miscast here. She exudes sensuality, but not strength. I wouldn't have necessarily minded that contradiction if they played more with it - or if the photos themselves were better. Lara looks uncomfortable and her face is not here for it.
