It's an interesting cover. It somehow plays with your perception of image with the double use of Carolyn and mannequin heads. I like that part about it, but cannot necessarily say I am as psyched as everyone else seems to be. But alas, the text included actually makes some sense with the image and in an interesting way. (play of the word "Multifaceted" with multiple mannequin faces)
I don't know whether or not the preview is from the main story (it looks like that could be the case, it has the same kind of wit and idiosyncracy as the cover), but if it is I hope the main story is different from what I am thinking because I would like to see something different from these kind of ridiculous, over-the-top high fashion stories that Meisel has been doing a lot of this year.
