“To become a supermodel, magazines need to help the girl.  Right now, magazines don’t do cover models.
When they are on covers, models become supermodels… they rise.”
~ Patrick Demarchelier, 2010

Generally, I think that Patrick Demarchelier is referencing domestic (U.S.) fashion publications.  I may be wrong.  Then again, I’m probably far from the only person who’s had more than enough of pop-culture icons: actors, musicians and the like appearing on covers instead of models.  I praise European, Asian, Central / South American and Australian magazines for continuing to show more regard for models over media figures.  If you’ve been curious and wondering, that’s why I post only foreign pictorials.

And the truth shall set you free.

I hope all of you continue to enjoy and support Fashionography as it blooms.

Often times genuine character is lost in the midst of the demanding fashion industry.  Karlie Kloss is relaxed and joyful in this effortless spread for Teen Vogue.
