i have this HB ed torn out some where.... can't remember: did melanie ward style this? ever notice how she never styles a cover? i can spot mary alice stephonson's predictably tacky, grandiose cover styling from a mile away. pretty much every other recent stylist for HB (except sometimes wolf) bores me to tears.
yes, its melanie ward. its a stunning ed. especially with erin oconner. there were only a few covers of hb that actually blew me away. the covers never equaled the content. some of them were downright horrible....remember liz hurley and hugh grant. i think there was a monkey on the cover with them! this particular issue was the giesha madonna cover. even tho it was pr for madonna it is a beautiful cover.
the monkey cover represented the primal nature/evolution of fashion(jk!). i actually quite enjoyed the antics of that liz, hugh cover. perhaps i'm biased since i do have a mysterious soft-spot for liz; it was a great issue anyhow. altho the madonna image was striking, i didn't care for the stiffness of the cover.
stiffness, certainly represents madonna past and present. ; ) the liz/hugh cover is such the opposite! love that issue tho, but i can still do without the cover.

Those jeans by Sprouse were great. I'd love to have something like that.
ReplyDeleteAs for the Missoni piece, it's a fresh look for the house. I like it.
