I love Elle but I’m so disappointed! Beyonce? Come on. I hardly think the person who started House of Dereon is worthy of gracing a cover of Elle much less gracing it in YSL. No doubt the girl’s talented but her line is hideous. Love the look with less headlines though.

less headlines only because that’s the subscription cover. don’t worry, the news stand cover has 984735894 headlines…

I Live Fashion, What does one have to do in your world to be deemed worthy enough to grace the cover of Elle or wear YSL? I always just assumed to be worthy of an elle cover involved having something to sell to the public around the time the magazine hits the newstand. And is YSL really that exclusive and special that a multi Grammy award winning, super-talented, beautiful, and successful woman cannot wear it. I’m guessing by your high standards about 4 or 5 people in the world are worthy of wearing YSL. Gucci Group should just close up shop, call it a day, cut its loses and move on.

the lack of headlines is because is the subscribers cover, the newstand cover is full of headlines like past issues, wearing a rather sheer purple dress.
I like her but she looks bad her, the make-up is very wrong.

It looks like they threw a tranny in some YSL and did his makeup like Dior Couture circa 06!!!

yes, she is free to wear whatever she wants, but that doesn’t mean she can pull it off. she should stop trying to compete with rihanna’s manufactured style and find her own. it’s hard to dress yourself when your mother has been dressing you all your life, but she needs to figure out how to drape her own plasticine likeness.

these edgy looks sh’e trying to pull off don’t suit her. she looks better in cavalli or versace or elie saab.

i doubt she has much say in the matter.
it’s not her fault she looks like a tranny.
i on the other hand think she looks fierce.

Tyra would be so disappointed, Beyonce you’re looking into the light!!
Anyway no one has the right to be disgruntled over Elle having Beyonce on the cover for this edition; to do so would be expecting too much from Elle who simply don’t deliver on a consistent basis (in respects to their covers) .
With that said, her facial expression is a bit awkward and I can’t buy in to this cover because I don’t see Beyonce as high fashion.
