Penelope Cruz Takes Exotic Beauty To W


Dynamic photography duo Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott lands another major September issue cover, snapping Spanish beauty Penelope Cruz for the September edition of W magazine.

Sporting sultry side-swept hair, the 38-year-old actress wears a Givenchy turtleneck, with Yves Saint Laurent gloves and a Lynn Ban 18k gold-plate and lapis necklace.

The ‘To Rome With Love‘ actress talks to the magazine about whether she prefers doing sex or death scenes.

“I don’t like dying. I die in Don’t Move [an Italian film, for which Cruz won the Italian academy award for best actress], and I can’t really look at it because it reminds me of my grandmother when she was very old. But sex scenes are very strange. Absurd, really”, Penelope shares with W.

Checkout her black and white editorial, styled by Edward Enninful, after the jump:

Lady Gaga Is All About The Hair In Vogue


A dreamy wide shot of Lady Gaga adorns the cover of the September issue of US Vogue magazine (Checkout the cover and editorial preview here). Her Grace Coddington-styled editorial, shot by Mert Alas And Marcus Piggott, gives precedence to the 26-year-old’s head. From donning oversize Marc Jacobs hats, to rocking blonde messy hair and even being captured in a dramatic, yet exquisite, black and white head-shot, the ‘Born This Way‘ songstress impresses like she only can.

FYI: A moment of silence for that black Alexander McQueen feather cape.

Lady Gaga Stands Tall For Vogue


The much-anticipated Lady Gaga Vogue cover, for the all so important September issue, is finally here and in true Gaga style it’s over-the-top. Anna Wintour puts the 26-year-old artpop songstress on the cover for the second time, and on the magazine’s biggest issue ever — with 916 pages.

Prolific photography duo Mert Alas And Marcus Piggott captures a full-shot of Gaga, with a sultry pout and her hands behind her back, while sporting bleached cotton candy-esque hair as well as wearing a floor-length and off-the-shoulder Marc Jacobs gown. Gaga was styled by Vogue’s longtime contributor Grace Coddington.

Gaga is, of course, promoting the launch of her first fragrance ‘Fame‘ and she had to tell the magazine the following on the first ever black eau de parfum:

“The fragrance is called Fame. It must be black. It must be enticing. You must want to lick and touch and feel it, but the look of it must terrify you”.

For her editorial preview, below, the ‘Born This Way‘ singer poses nude, only topping her head with a Stephen Jones for Marc Jacobs hat.
