Dolce & Gabbana cover face off: Vogue Japan vs. Vogue Turkey
FashionGoneRogue, Style.com
I have mentioned a few times over the last few weeks how I could see all the upcoming magazine covers being plastered in the amazing Prada SS12 collection. So far there has indeed been a lot of it but there have been those who have wanted to change things up a bit on their new covers. This is the case of the February's Vogue Turkey and Vogue Japan's March issue. What are the chances of going for exactly the same piece?! Both Bianca Balti (styled by Anna dello Russo) and Karolina Kurkova (by Daniela Paudice) don the same sext bejewelled number from Dolce & Gabbana's SS12 collection. I instantly recognised the ultra-mini dress as I still remember being in awe of how Magdalena Frackowiak wore it on the runway.
I can't really decide which cover I like better, which is unlike me. I like how Karolina's look is quite simple and only accessorised with Prada (ha!) earrings but I also like Bianca's 'Italiana' cover and the genius "Latin Lover" headline.

For whatever reason I keep forgetting to get my subscription to ELLE UK, which makes this all the more upsetting. Michelle Williams shot by Alexei Hay covers the December issue looking stunning. As usual, I am a lot more into the subscriber's cover. Just when I thought that their choices for cover stars couldn't get any better they pull this off.
Michelle is going to be at the front of more and more magazines as the date of her 'A week with Marilyn' move release approaches. I am really looking forward to watching the film not only because I want to see her portrayal of the famous sex symbol but because from what I gathered from the trailer the style and photography of the movie is simply incredible.
I can't decide whether this is my absolute favourite cover of Michelle this year. It's definitely in the top two but it's hard to compete with her Interview May cover shot by Mikael Jansson. I am interested to see a high-res version of the regular ELLE cover that will hit newstands in about a week and I can't wait to take a look at the editorial inside. The ELLE team have been on fire this year!
