That's the Elle China April 1999 version of the original Elle UK February 1999 cover. I don't think this is the right issue but it is one of maybe only four possibilities. This one is from Elle Japan May 1999 and I think this has a better chance of being the right issue. I remember orange more than I remember purple (I had the magazine only as long as it took me to getting around to extracting the one interior photo that I wanted).

I got these from the international covers archive - I have to go back and make a definitive final list (all covers are not there and I think Thailand and Taiwan at the very least may have used this same cover).

 

In the end, I will need to find these issues, have them looked at to see if my photo is there and then get a scan or at worst a color photocopy of my photo, with possible language barriers or copyright issues coming into play. I just hope I don't end up coming all this way for nothing. I may even have to hire someone on the ground in Beijing, Tokyo, Bangkok or wherever to help me with this if that ends up being the only way.

 

 

I’m confused, what exactly are you looking for from the elle japan issue? I have that issue. 

Just now, BLtheKid said:

 

That blows my mind that you have that exact issue! I've been looking for a particular photo from September 2018 to February 2020 and picked up the search again in June 2021, so about 21 months overall. Between 1700-1800 magazines looked at in one way or another. Was looking between 1988-2001 before realizing in early 2020 that the photo was very likely in the January-July 1999 period. About a month ago, I finally realized that James King was the model and that she also covered the magazine my photo was in. That's the short version of the story...

 

Here's the description librarians around the world have been working with (recently updated):

 

The model (now known to be James King) has dirty to light blond hair. I believe she was sitting on a beach or sand dune, with her feet a little lower than the rest of her body and her arms maybe resting in her lap, on her knees or between her legs. She was wearing I guess what would be called a white peasant blouse/dress (I think it laced-up in the upper part). Bare shoulders - I think. With either sandals or bare feet.
 
But, the most distinctive part - she is wearing maybe 15 or 20 white and silver bangles on each arm. The easiest way to find the photo is to look for a lot of bracelets or bangles (that will eliminate almost all photos from consideration immediately and you will come across only a few that will have any chance of being the photo I'm looking for). She is by herself in the photo and I believe is facing at least slightly to the reader's right as you look at the photo.
 
I believe the photo I'm looking for was between pages 120-130 or possibly 220-230.
 
I think there was some kind of vacation or bohemian theme in this editorial.
 
IS THIS WHERE THE SEARCH COMES TO AN END?

 

 

 

sorry its not in there the issue is mostly unknown models in studio shoots. in 1998-1999 elle used to create covers without an editorial for the cover inside and reprint them internationally. i collect a lot of japanese magazines from late 90s this is the only edit i'm aware of that james appeared on its from HF high fashion august 1998:
