US Vogue May 2009 Cover - The Faces of the Moment by Steven Meisel

US Vogue May 2009 Cover

OMG STUNNING! The highly-anticipated May 2009 cover of American Vogue featuring models is out. It's so huge I had to resize it. The front cover went to two of Anna's favourite old pets, Liya Kebede and Natalia Vodianova and *shock* Anna Jagodzinska, who came in as a surprise. Congratulations to HER!

Meanwhile, Isabeli Fontana, Jourdan Dunn, Raquel Zimmermann, Lara Stone, Caroline Trentini and Natasha Poly can be found on the pull-out.

So what do you all think?

I love the cover but a few of them look way too photoshopped and I don't like the casting that much.

It's about time American Vogue bust out a cover with models in it but Natalia Vodianova again? Isn't she already too established, too much of a veteran to even be considered as a 'face of the moment'?

Out of everyone in that mix, Natasha Poly deserved the main spot the most. She's the closest thing to a supermodel that we have right now. You know she works harder than most of the girls there...

I can't wait for this issue to hit the newstands here in the third world. I'm gonna buy myself a copy. Ok, maybe two or three copies because it would probably take a decade before we get another 'models' cover.

Diversity watchers rejoice: it's the third consecutive time American Vogue featured a black woman on the cover.

Last observation: how come there's not a single American model there?
