She's absolutely amazing. She's boyishly adorable and elegant at the same time. Breathtaking is right.

I love every look in this editorial...sigh. Also, is it just me or is she remarkably healthy looking?

omg she is soooo not "remarkably healthy"....She's not as skinny as alot of girls, but I highly doubt that is from living a healthy lifestyle. Every time I've worked with her, she's come in under the influence of "something" and/or incredibly lethargic. She somehow pulls it together in photographs- not so much on the runway.

I agree that she looks remarkably health-looking, especially for being a top model. She looks rather normal.

Gorge!!! But she has a little bit of a Drew Barrymore thing going on in this spread. Not that that's a bad thing.

yes, she does look amazing, and the clothes are nice (for the most part); but the accessories styling here is just tacky overkill, with the ridiculous puffy headgear and all those plaid socks.

She DOES look healthy. But those "fashions" have GOT to go Dahlings. If this is fashion, show me to a dumpster, please. And the socks with anything other than flats (especially without lace!) are truly gauche. Anyone with $2 and a local thrift store could put this together; I did it all the way through Jr. High and High School....and my creations were WAY better than this! Ugh...and yuk! And, oh yes, those gaudy, baudy throw some rags in your hair tress coverups are more disgusting than, dare I say it, hair nets would look! I think Gilda Radner just turned over in her grave. Louis, and Marc, and Christian, Pulease rescue us from this crap!

While incredibly beautiful, Stam is so boring sometimes, especially in an editorial like this. Great shots, but I'll take Sasha's versatility over Stam's ice-cold gaze anyday.

I think the only kind of new items are the LV tote on the 8th pic, and those cute little plaid socks..
fade florals, bohemia meets arty, overdose of prints...old old old (Or some designer have magically "learnt" from Ghèsquiere..?)
Besides that, I dont like Stam.
What´s about her? I never got it

I like Stam's face for the same reason I like Kate Moss's. She's exotic, but at the same time her beauty is very accessible, with a girl-next-door quality. No matter how icy her gaze, I'm always waiting for her to blow a huge pink bubble with her chewing gum or something. It's interesting.
This isn't just my plug for chub, but is anyone else feeling like all the attention that's been giving to models and their bodies over the past five years has effectively pulled back the curtain on the Oz of giraffe-like bodies?
Looking at women like Stam, with these completely un-aspirational body types, is much less glamorous now that many of the destructive means used to attain them have been revealed to the public, no? It was easier to worship models when I believed they were genetic anamolies, before I knew they were sticking toothbrushes down their throats and subsisting only on narcotics and the occasional lime wedge from a vodka tonic.
