Best fashion magazines covers.


I gathered different fashion magazines covers I find magnificent and breath-taking, so here we go:
(PS: Most of the covers are Vogue magazines, oh well, you can't blame great art) 



1- French Vogue November 1970: Donna Jordan
(Lust isn't something new and trendy, the Lady in Red here shows an irresistible attraction towards her. A fine photography full of feminine passion 41 years ago!)





2- British Vogue October 1967: Jean Shrimpton 
(The beautiful, innocent soul of one of the first supermodels Jean S - The Shrimp. What's kinder than this pure beauty with piercing turquoise eyes and a wooden hair color , she is perfect)





3- Vanity Fair August 1991: Demi Moore
(Posing nude is a big challenge, especially 20 years ago. What's so great about this cover is the transparency of the nudist and her body, carrying a breathing alive human being. Carnal motherhood.)






4- Italian Vogue March 2005: Lily Donaldson
(It's where fantasy feels real, where models are angels and muses. Where you can  hear the harmony in this soft, peaceful world.)
 






5- Numero 80 February 2007: Malgosia Bela
(I believe Edgy, Bold and Fierce are some words to describe this piece of art. Dressed in the revolutionary D&G metal dress of SS07 collection, Malgosia has a word to say: I'm here to conquer you.)
                                         






6- W October 2008: Anne Hathaway
(Something about this cover turns the sweet Anne to the mysterious lustful Anne, could it be the stunning makeup, or the bizarre hair.. It's probably the 'Sensual Ballerina' look given to the actress...Stunning.)







7- Style October 2008: Kate Moss
(the bodacious supermodel Kate Moss, in a sexy mini-dress is here with action and sensuality to rock your world, with perfect font and perfect coloring, this is the deal.)






8- Fashion Magazine January 2009: Kasia Struss
(Fiesta! The Polish model in a feather white mini-dress in a dancing pose, giving the illusion of motion in a black and white frame yet obvious euphoria!)






9- Vegas November 2008: Kim Kardashian
(KK looking so sexy and bold, with a lion look-a-like figure and chic accessories. The femininity is limitless in her face expression and the pants are just too weird!!!)







10- French Vogue March 2009: Iris Strubegger
(A retro devoted cover for the fashion goddess Mademoiselle Coco Chanel. In the end "French Boyish Coco elegance".)





11- Elle May 2009: Drew Barrymore
(a unique way of thinking, under-water. With the ginger haired actress, posing literally under the water, 'une folie sous l'eau', since we all have our craziness underwater, so why not?!)






12- US Vogue April 2011: Rihanna
(In this cover, the main inspiration is Ariel, the mermaid. Rihanna with her flaming red hair and exotic see-through dress, covering her beautiful body and the soothing maritime background.)
                                        







13- US Vogue March 2011: Lady Gaga
(With her eccentric looks, Vogue defines gaga's own special beauty with pink hair matching font and a white silk folded dress and gold ribbons and of course the pose of POWER! Go monsters!)






14- Italian Vogue September 2011: Stella Tennant
(Dedicated to Ethel Granger, the woman with the smallest waist ever, this cover is just intriguing. With so many issues behind doing it, the look, the photoshopped waist, the whole  24.4 x 32 cm cover is something to talk about.)

Actress Thandie Newton poses for Louis Vuitton.



The British actress with a special, rare skin color was chosen to pose in the Louis Vuitton film series : Double Exposure, where 19th century photographic process is used. That requires the sitter to pose for 12 seconds.



The Double Exposure project is a Louis Vuitton invention, that consists on slowing things down in a chaotic world urging for modernity and new lifestyles. It is the moment to focus on the sitter and only the sitter, to produce a timeless piece of art.

"The images really take you into the heart of history itself," Newton said. "To parallel that, we're getting into the history of me through the items I've chosen. One of the things about these photographs is the layers of meaning. Each picture is so unique so it just creates this desire to be my most essential self."
This is is why Thandie Newton decided to use some personal items of her in the photo shoot such as her passport, a teddy bear and a painting...



The clothes for the footage are from the Louis Vuitton ready-to-wear AW 11-12 collection, a collection all about women fetishes and sex, that is it. If you want to check the full show: http://www.vogue.co.uk/fashion/autumn-winter-2011/ready-to-wear/louis-vuitton/full-length-photos
