this looks like Steven klein and camilla akrans had a baby

Stunning. This is what W should look like and not that Willow Smith cover

Sorry, I just saw that I got the title wrong, it's a modern portrait, not painter. Could a mod fix that, please?

I prefer the 2nd cover, such a striking angle. After all these years, Toni's posing still doesn't impress me. She's ageing beautifully though.

W Korea’s insistent on doing the Steven Klein blue-filter route time and time again just comes off depressing— and utterly clueless to me.

Instead of dark and smouldering, it all comes off as gloomy and sad. Klein’s imageries are so provocative, sexually-charged and rich in texture that the blue-filter adds to his often sinister narrative. When there’s no narrative— not even a concept, as is with this shoot and many of their blue-filter images from past edits, it’s just simply depressing. May as well be W North Korea.

Toni is channeling Julianne Moore on the cover.

I don't like the styling she is too pretty for this. And this awful hairstyle!

 

[GivenchyHomme]

They should have did something else with her hair. It really brings it down a bit,

 

[Bertrando3]

Love the editorial, very good styling and poses but the covers don´t tell me anything at all.

Like the first cover but the edit is pretty lifeless. Probably the intent considering it's very Kleinish.
