Yawn. Trying too hard…she’s got a nice body, at least.

Laetitia Negre shot Natasa Vojnovic for “My Pretty Seahorse” in the August 2009 issue of i-D. Natasa, photographed with closed eyes, seems to be sleepwalking through this dreamy, vintagey spread.

Alasdair McLellan shot Sigrid Agren for the pages of i-Ds 300th Anniversary issue.

John-Paul Thurlow, artist and magazine cover graphic designer, is recasting his favorite covers with a bit of paper and a pencil. It’s images like these that make me wish I  could draw. Sigh.

Chanel Iman does her best close-up for the May 2009 cover of i-D magazine.

Shot by Kayt Jones, Chanel puts a glittery spin on the magazine’s trademark wink.  Love the feathers; Chanel looks like she’s on the hunt!

We’ve got an exclusive, behind the scenes look at i-D mags recent cover shoot featuring some of Britain’s top new faces and talents. Yeah, we just j’d in our p’s just thinking about it.

For the March issue of i-D you’ll have your choice of 12 cover girls, all English models: Kate Moss, Yasmin Le Bon, Alice Delllal, Lily Donaldson, Naomi Campbell, Eliza Cummings, Twiggy, Susie Bick, Daisy Lowe, Jourdan Dunn, Agyness Deyn, Stella Tennant.

Working with stylist Edward Enninful, Solve Sundsbo photographed each model completely differently (but all with the trademark wink), and each girl has her own cover quote.

From Fashion Copious.

Models Anne Vyalitsyna of Women Managment and Boyd Holbrook of Wilhelmina NY snagged the cover of i-D’s February 2009 issue. The cover, shot by photographer Matt Jones is anything but impressive. If you ask me, it looks like a test shot and really isn’t groundbreaking enough for the cover of a magazine. Holbrook wears both suit and shirt from the Calvin Klein collection. Vyalitsyna, on the other hand, wears her birthday suit.

I was flipping through old issues of i-D, Dazed and Confused and Men’s Vogue while I was home in Buffalo over the holiday weekend. I knew I spotted a trend among male models, but it didn’t hit me until I saw Cole Mohr on the Marc by Marc Jacobs billboard in SoHo one last time…

The Trend: baby-faced, skinny, tattooed, pierced, punk rocking models who look like they just got kicked out of the high school homecoming dance for reeking of cheap beer. Bingo. 

Punk boys have been all over the editorials and up and down the runways recently. I absolutely love the awkward, but adorable, high school dropout look…and It looks like I’m not the only one! With Marc Jacobs and Hedi Slimane as avid fans of this look, it seems that the baby-faced punks will be scoring high fashion editorials and shows for years to come. But sorry ladies, just because you look like a prepubescent rocker doesn’t mean your gauged ears and inked arms are fully acceptable in the high fashion industry. It’s unfair, I know…but that’s just the way it is. 

Thanks for the photos Models.com!
