Vogue Italia September 2014 cover (it's the anniversary cover, and it's a foldout) absolutely awful. :yuckky:

The German Vogue cover is gorgeous. Thanks for the Opium videos.

Tito, do you have a favorite picture of Linda? I'd love to know what it is.

Anyway, while I agree that it's very difficult to choose just one picture of Linda, I have always LOVED this particular picture. Everything about it is perfect: her beauty, the color of her eyes, her hair, her teeth, her trademark open-mouth pose... Simply a gorgeous picture.

^One thing I recently learned about that 1992 Bazaar cover is that it was named one of the "40 greatest magazine covers" on this list below. It even ranked higher than the famous National Geographic cover of a 12-year-old girl from Afghanistan. http://www.magazine.org/asme/magazine-cover-contests/asmes-top-40-magazine-covers-last-40-years How awesome is that?

^It's definitely Kim Alexis.

I'm hoping that Linda (solo) will get the anniversary cover, and that some of Steven's favorites will just be featured inside the pages of the magazine. But really, we'll see how it all goes.

Welcome Mani! It's a really nice site. Thanks for taking the time to create it. "A Shot of Scotch" is one of my all-time favorite editorials. I can remember seeing it for the first time in 1991 and being wowed by it.

Oh, good point! As Tito said, Linda is the queen of Italian Vogue, and it's also the 30th anniversary of Linda's modeling career. So, Linda definitely deserves to be on the cover of Italian Vogue this year. The timing is perfect for it, as a way to honor both Italian Vogue and Linda's career. It would be absurd if she doesn't get a cover this year. I don't think Steven should pass up his muse just put some model-of-the-moment on the cover.

Here's a great quote about Linda from Franca Sozzani that was published today. source

Yeah, she first walked the Paris runways in 1985 -- or maybe even in 1984. Here's a clip from Chanel in 1985. The image quality is not so good though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2J0QKaFoDmI

^Thanks.

Is this Catherine sitting on Riccardo Tisci's lap?

^Thanks, yeah I just looked on another website and all 3 covers indeed are the newsstand covers. This (with Vogue Japan) makes two September issue covers for Linda this year.
