Vogue Australia Sept 09 50th Issue: Cover

The 50th issue of Australian Vogue's covers (yup, four) are out and are really quite lovely. The vintage-esque illustrations of the classy Cate Blanchett by David Downton are both refreshing and nostalgic. Patty Huntington has some shots of the editorial of Abbey Lee and Catherine McNeil on her Frockwriter blog - I can't wait to see the whole issue!

Black Issue 10: Cover Teaser

The fantastic Black Magazine have put the male version of their Issue Ten cover up on their blog. I love this... Red plaid, limited colour, side lighting. And I'm a sucker for long hair on males.

Peek: Karen Winter 09

I die. Frockwriter has this preview of the cover of Karen magazine's winter issue. Classic beauty with the pop of colour - works so well. Olivia O'Driscoll is stunning. I think editor Marian Simms sums up the mood of the magazine (and a lot of people in general);

 "Everyone is feeling that times are bleak and I wanted to have a bit of celebration” 

Apparently the issue also features Jessica Hart - another fave face of mine. Can't wait for this issue! Every issue makes me so proud that this comes out of Australasia.

Best Of The Best of The Brits

Fashionologie has the twelve covers that i-D is doing for their March Best of British issue. They used twelves iconic British faces - past and present - for the issue. My faves are Kate, Lily D, Alice Dellal and Twiggy:

The other cover stars are Aggy, Daisy Lowe, Eliza Cummings, Jourdan Dunn, Naomi Campbell, Stella Tennant, Susie Bick and Yasmin Le Bon.

"The confirmations were instant — it was about doing something for England, and models have been so faceless — British models always have personality."

Vogue Italia Evolution

I love Vogue Italia's January 09 cover. The tones and refined futuristic aesthetic are gorgeous!
