I think the cover lines narrows the cover image. The fact that most cover lines are small and plain is something I can appreciate; it doesn't take any focus away from the cover image. The decision of making text which curves with the objects in the image adds uniqueness. The yellow color for the text is a bit surprising. It makes the cover lines somewhat hard to read, especially the line "Let me be.." However, the yellow also making the text subtle; it doesn't consumes the eyes of the readers. Overall, this magazine cover is simple and charming. It holds my attention, someone who isn't even a
fan of the artist on the cover: Lana Del
Ray.
The color scheme and makeup on the model is stunning! Match that with the "I don't care" expression on the model face... WOW!! The truth of how make-up, color, and hair has nothing to do with one's beauty speaks volumes with me. The colorful cover lines attracts the eyes, but it matches the color scheme on the model/cover image, therefore acting as a prop for the model. The image is covered up by the masthead and cover story, yet in no respect do they take away from the empowering cover image. This cover page is definitely one I will draw inspiration when editing.
