La Lara
August 19th, 2009 Janelle comments (60)We are in the middle of a Lara Stone moment -Â the covers keep coming, the campaigns don’t stop and everywhere you go you see a hint of Ms. Stone’s influence. Whether its in the bleached brows trend or in the recent influx of gap-toothed, blonde models – Lara is the girl to beat. Just when you think you’ve seen all there is to see when it comes to Ms. Stone she goes ahead and surprises us with a Vogue Paris makeover. Shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott with dark hair, an innocent glance and :gasp: full eyebrows, Lara is almost completely unrecognizable.
Do you love this fresh take on Lara or is the change too much for you?

I love this change. i really hope it’s permanent. now that she’s an established face she doesn’t need those gimmick-eyebrows to be remembered. and with this look she can be commercial enough to garner that supermodel status.

Two thumbs up!

She’s not naked for a change! And no, I don’t have a problem with nudity.
She looks beautiful. This makeover adds a lot of versatility.

Absolutely gorgeous. I have been very skeptical of her for sometime and not really a fan. This cover may have changed my mind. I believe versatility is the true test of a great model and she has proved this capability strongly here. Fantastic.

LA LARA please sounds so so bad! but the cover is amazing I love Lara Stone

I seriously became breathless upon seeing this. She is just so amazing, breaking so many stereotypes against models. There is just something about her that is impossible not to love and be intrigued by. She can really pull off any look and her body of work is so diverse. Long live Lara Stone!

I usually dont like Lara but this shot is really, I mean REALLY amazing.
Hope she pull that off more often.

Of all the changes (Coco going black, Trentini going red, Daul & Ilkeline going blonde), this is my FAVORITE!!!
Her booker ditched her past trashiness to the current glamorous and timeless beauty… absolutely breathtaking!!!

Mert an Marcus = picture so fake!!

She looks so beautiful and so soft. Such a chameleon…this photo of her resembles a cross between a young Natalie Portman and te sexiness of Kiera Knighley.

i love her

Phew, I already thought models.com forgot to post Lara’s latest gig! You’re usually not that slow…
Anyway, she looks beyond amazing. M & M did a great job. Probably the best cover of the year so far. I hope you’ll also post Lara’s ‘Numero’ cover…
August 19th, 2009

THANK GOD!!! NOT ONLY IS SHE NOT NAKED, HER MOUTH OR SHOULD I SAY TEETH IS CLOSED….
SHE WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY TOP 20 OF THE GREATEST!!!

she looks amazing here, it should definitely be permanent, she looks 100x better with dark hair and full eyebrows, usually i completely dislike her but even i must concede this is a great cover.

Lara Ist AMazing finally something that last more longer then those 6months models of the moments …. VIve Lara
August 19th, 2009

WOW SHE LOOKS SO MUCH BETTER!!!!!
I didn’t recognize her right away and this is my favorite cover of this year. GORGEUS. GO LARA!!!

It is so incredibly 40′s!
It is not even a slight of inspiration, they COPIED for 100 percent a picture with Grace Kelly or Greer Garson, then put Lara Stone in it and finished!
Nothing new about the look, but Vogue recognized just the right time to make it so very chic and elegant!

Natasha who?
Lara should be #1

Lara looks absolutely stunning in this pic!!! I almost didn’t recognise her!

Holy cow, that is such a big change and for the better. She looks stunning as a brunette!

Not really sure that this amazing cover is the result of long hours in Photoshop, but if not the this cover is amazing, i prefer lara as a brunetter, really really beautiful.

I have to say I am a HUGE Lara Stone fan precisely because of her oddness.
Top marks to her she’s unrecognisable here and there is a highly classy if somewhat manufactured “Retro” look, to be sure, but you know what? I love the freakiness and miss it, that’s what makes her for me so smashing. The hair, the gap, the teeth, the loucheness, here I find her kind of generic.
August 19th, 2009

LOVE her ….amazing

That doesn’t even look like her! Too much Lara, seriously.
August 20th, 2009

a little late people, but I haven’t had my breath taken away like this in a long time. Immaculate. Spot on. The love child of Natalie Portman and Eugenia Volodina. Sophisticated yet fresh. The most successful metamorphosis – not just a gimmick, it really makes sense. wow

To join in the love song…. a girl that can pull of that kind of image change and still come out on top more beautiful then ever all i can say is WOW….WOW…WOW….
LARA, Mert & Markus my hat off! This cover is nothing but AMAZING!!!

I hate LAra! I Am the MOsT Anti lara person alive maybe, but surprisingly i like her here… She looks beautiful and fresh, and she has clothes on 4 once…. Bravo!

cool, she doesn’t look like the Gap-Toothed Albino that we love.
what a Beauty, isn’t she?
like a softer Adriana Lima mix with Natalie Portman.
ganda.

This is a classic cover. One for the history books of fashion. BEAUTIFULL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m a model agent so i’m suposed to know these things.(ha ha )

Too much photoshop, she doesn’t look like that (despite hair collour).
August 20th, 2009

She needs to stop smoking those cigarettes, seriously, I saw her in casting a few months ago and the burns through those things like a racecar through rubber. I don’t mean to be rude, but she simply needs to stop destorying her body.

haters can’t handle Lara Stone.
So I’ll say it again,
It’s Lara, Beetch!
Learn it, Love it, Live it!

think it looks gorgeous, not too much change at all. as long as she doesnt keep the look for toooo long. i still think she looks better with blond hair!!!
August 23rd, 2009

is it me or does she look like natalie portman?
August 24th, 2009
at 11:26 am
yeah, now that i’m looking at it again, i’m also seeing Natalie Portman. it’s like Lara meets Toni Garrn meets Natalie Portman. she looks so soft and serene, which is a nice contrast to the usual hard, mean, or sexed up look she usually gives. true versatility.
