Ladylike. Simply impeccable down to the tiniest detail. First and foremost an absolutely clear complexion is the real distinctive trait of a sophisticated lady.

Start with little touches of Top Secret Soin Pinceau Éclat Instantané, an effective base for an instant healthy glow that hydrates and leaves your make-up looking flawless. Next comes Teint Resist, n. 01 foundation, which ensures a radiance and color, promising impeccable results for 14 hours, day and night. Focus on your eyebrows, to be redefined and tamed with Dessin Des Sourcils, a soft yet highly resistant eyebrow pencil combined with a mini brush.

Finally the lips are made the undisputed stars using Fard à Lèvres Rouge Pur, n. 150, rouge sublime, a brightly colored lipstick that ensures hydration and protection. All by Yves Saint Laurent. 
Printed swimsuit and bikini, John Richmond Beachwear. Long patent gloves, LaCrasia. Head stylist Julien d'Ys. Make-up, Pat McGrath. Fashion Editor, Karl Templer.

^Kirsi Pyrhonen and Daria Strokous If I remember correctly the main story will also have Caroline Brasch-Nielsen, Hind Sahli, Joan Smalls, Julia Nobis, Ylonka, and a couple more (?).

And WHAT a cover - the created shape is so intriguing.

 

[Carla-A]

the cast is pure genius i'm so glad to see both of them, they compliment each other to perfection! the covershot in itself is excellent as well, the layout as the colors are kind of minimalistic, but yet attention-getting and efficient.

 

[Creative]

Horrible.

 

[TaylorBinque]

Very intriguing cover. Love it. The power is so strong.

 

[ALAUU]

Ah... I thought Werbowy Nearly had a heart attack for no reason. The cover's cool, but nothing special.

 

[mrsjamesdean]

Definitely a must for me. Great composition and the use of interesting texture of the clothes that juxtapose the plain background is a great way to steer away of the typecast of boring studio.

Now that's what you call a vogue italia cover! Stunning indeed! Love the casting, the way she sees through the O, their poses, the colors -- love everything! Can't wait to see the key editorial! Thank you for posting

 

[behansu]

I love this! I especially love how Daria's eye is peeking out from the "O" And the main ed casting sounds amazing. Thanks Flashbang and Faith!

 

[eneroenero]

sooo cheap!

I like this cover, especially the composition. It looks very interesting.

 

[tanii94]

I've got mixed feelings about this...

 

[fadedcolours]

I'm in love with this cover, don't know if it's out of line or if it's wrong but it reminds me of old Meisel (only a few years ago but still considered old, I guess). So happy to hear about Hind being in the editorial too.

 

[LegBaby]

Hmmmm..... I'm undecided on this cover. It's visually very very interesting, but I just don't know if it works completely for me. I think maybe I would almost prefer it if It was just Kirsi in that pose? Daria looks great, but I think she clashes with the masthead a bit.

Excited for such a fresh cast though! It's a shame Joan Smalls didn't get the cover I have to say....

I don't LIKE it, but I find it to be very interesting.

 

[LegBaby]

Also - didn't notice that Hind Sahli is in the cast! So excited to see what Meisel does with her!

 

[mousyy]

Love it!

 

[tocceve]

I heard about the most of the casted models (thanks source!) and I knew Kirsi would end up on the cover as he shot her for a lot of cool things. Hind is a cool surprise!

I hope it's not another studio editorial but the cover so far looks like I could like it a lot.

Im glad the Kirsi is having this moment, she has such an amazing beauty. Also the cast sounds fantastic can't wait to see Hind
