I don't like how on the cover Stam is just pushed to the side.

I like the way she looks so cool she wouldn't dream of fighting to become the center of attention.

why do they all look the same on the cover? can't they get models who aren't all blonde?

Well, since the theme of this issue is gold, black and a little bit of white (or pearls), mixing wouldn't be good. They needed the Golden Girls to make the cover theme work properly, IMO. When you use gold you have to be strict with the color scheme so that the end result isn't too gaudy.

As for variety, I think they've had brunettes all through this year, except the Natalia issue of April - and she wasn't all that blonde there either. Last proper blonde was Kate's Dec/Jan cover.

The cover is horribly boring, I think simple_elegance is right they all look same on the cover and those Chanel cruise outfits are

Edits look alright though. Disappointed anyway

I love the cover! , I love the clothes, I love the sunglasses and the girls look awesome

yeah I like it
the editorials are blah...

 

[littlemissmagic]

actually, i don't feel all that excited for this issue. i prefer eds over studio shots, and these ones don't seem all that interesting to me.

The cover reminds me of old school(circa early 90's) covers with models decked out in those Chanel chains. I would have liked the models to be more diverse...

But not bad

It reminds me in a weird way of one of the shots from American Vogue August w/ Linda on the cover. There was this grayish shot of Carolyn Murphy, Liya, Shalom and Carmen who represent the "new breed of models" moving forward toward the camera. Only they all looked dull and insignificant, thereby leading to the idea that new models suck. In contrast, this batch of "post supermodel models" have been given great clothes, golden Vogue letters and great styling. The result, of course, is that they look inimitably gorgeous.

We all agree a bout the "old school" spirit!

Yep, that seems to be the one thing that there's not much disagreement about From what I've seen of Diorette's scans I'm going to have to get it...Hannelore's and Morgane's shots are awesome. Thank you, D

I don't like the cover, though Snejana looks good

the styling is so inspirational. shoes really give the look.

 

[evisu donna]

I'm kind of disappointed, I expected more

 

[columbine]

I just want to see Karen & Missy. A mag that has photos of them never disappoints me

I have seen those pictures of justin T by Terry richardson before, they have been published about 2 years ago when he first launched his solo career!
