Joan Smalls Is Warming Up i-D’s Winter 2011 Cover. Benjamin Eidem Too

  • Pin it

The nice i-D people said that there will be no less than six covers for their spectacular i-D Winter Warm Up Issue no 316. We’ve already seen and fell under the charms of Jourdan’s Sade-ish cover, Saskia’s deep 80s cover, Anja’s upside down cover and Hailey’s sweet funny cover.

It’s time for the grand finale: the amazingly beautiful Joan Smalls, one of my favorite models (with curly hair! Yaaaay! Natural curly hair on a magazine cover!) and Benjamin Eidem, Miuccia Prada’s favorite man face of the moment (although his pose reminds me of something Galliano or Gaultier would do). I don’t know about you, but me, really, I’d definitely see all those six covers framed nicely on a wall as pure art. That’s how high I think of them! Which one is your favorite? (I’m somewhere between Anja and Joan… and Jourdan)

I also love Joan Smalls!
And with all of this curly hair I am going to let my naturally curly hair be itself this winter!
As for the ID covers I agree they could all be framed as wall art.
I love the Joan and Jourdan covers!

I love Joan Smalls too, practically the minute I first saw her in a magazine layout. I though it was Liya Kibede who’s a fav of mine.
Six covers to choose from is quite a challenge as they are all wonderful. I’m inclined to choose Jourdan for her Sade effect but I’ll pick Benjamin Eidem instead as his cover has a kinda 80s British Pop feel to it & I love that era. :)

Joan Smalls is one of my favourite models – I get a thrill. But I don’t like the styling on this cover – pity. I hope the Jourdan Dunn will be available where I live.
