Vogue Italia November 2010 : Freja Beha Erichsen & Iselin Steiro by Steven Meisel

It's a pretty good cover. I actually don't find anything particularly amazing about this cover, and I don't see what everyone's so incredibly excited about, but I still agree that it's a nice cover, and I think it will sell.
 
When I first saw the cover earlier on, I couldn't wait to see a larger shot, but now that I have, it looks really unremarkable. But that's entirely down to personal taste, because I don't automatically like either model, and what they are (or aren't) wearing isn't doing anything for me.

In my imagination, hair is luscious, furs are soft and deep, and leather is worn by those with dangerous curves, but this cover is going in a different direction, and it's not one that would satisfy me.
 
oh sh**. another great cover that i will not have.
i love the soft, nice photography! meisel is on a roll, he's making amazing covers this year.
 
I like this cover and at least they trying something a little different here.
I love these 2 girls together since the Gucci campaign from way back and I like Freja working with Meisel.
My only criticism would be that it's slightly washed out.
 
I love it!! I love the poses and the colours. And its good to see Freja again on Vogue Italia so soon :smile:
 
i will never tire of freja! i love love this so different from the usual dark stuff (boring)
 
OK, the cover is making me dizzy. :sick:

The whole figuring out whose hand is that, whose leg is that is kinda cool.

I like the nudeness of the model's faces a lot, but I really wish that was some kind of contrast (or lighting adjustment) so that Iselin was less so washed out.

I like the leather but not the fur, that's not a political thing, it just does not seem to be adding anything other than covering Freja's naughty bits - actually it is bringing the picture down, there is no luxury element or vicarious tactile thrill. I am searching my memory bank to see if there is some fur or feather bolero on the runway - Gucci perhaps, but I don't know if the bolero was part of the dress or a separate piece.

Freja is werking the upside down smize!

A little strange at first, but makes you take another look. One of the coolest covers of the year!
 
Great cover, indeed. Meisel knows how to make it.
 
I need to get this. This is Meisel at his absolute best. Bravo!
 
November is a good month for the major magazines imo but this is exceptional. I don't mind the inverted angle of the shot, I'll turn my head upside-down just for Iselin. :P Great to see her in VI again... Freja looks amazing too.
 
The best cover of Vogue Italia this mediocre year of cover and ed loveeee is good this month VogueIT are better
 
Great cover! Can't wait to see the main ed! The casting is really promising!
And also this cover reminds me a liitle bit of November 2007 cover with Coco and Meghan. Anyway, it's a good cover.
 
Absolutely gorgeous. Nice and soft, very natural. It's really perfect.
 
Another VI for Freja :woot: but I dont like it
the worst freja cover this year for me :(
 
Talk about a great follow up after last Issue's Mariacarla High Fashion cover. I just love everything about this cover. The colors are so subtle. They look relaxed beside the fact that posing with someone on top of you is hard. Everything in this is just perfect. And look at those legs, beyond perfection.

I`m just a bit bothered for the fact that this is somewhat reminiscent to a cover they did in 2007. I think it`s August with Coco Rocha and another girl. Fur and all too
