Acne Paper is a source of consistently cutting edge content and their latest issue delivers the goods. Miguel Reveriego’s super sleek black and white portraits of Bridget Hall, Camille Mervin Leroy, Hannah Holman and Alla Kostromichova are striking in their use of light and shadow. The combination of unusual lighting and Marie Chaix’s eclectic styling makes for a few impressive visual tricks - note the faux baby bump on Bridget.

Lara Stone is the queen of rebellious and brazen sexuality. We’ve come to expect a certain devil may care attitude from Ms. Stone - how many Lara editorials feature the Dutch beauty wearing Balmain and smoking a cigarette? Perhaps that is why her sugary sweet cover for British Vogue seems so very fresh. Soft pastels, a frou frou dress and Lara looking almost (dare we say it) innocent. Leave it to Mario Testino to show another side of one of our favorite girls.

The Elite Model Look winner of France, Manon Pieto arrives and is already shooting with some of fashion’s finest. (Polaroids courtesy of Elite New York).

Scoop has 2 lovely new faces Caroline (above) and Axel (below). Both pics from the Ones2Watch.

We adore Mathu Placek’s polaroids for V Magazine fall blowout party. Check out Sessilee Lopez, Liya Kebede and Cecilia Dean up close and personal.

Speaking of V, their new beauty issue has THE top beauty names in the biz. It’s a must buy…

Death is the new black. There’s something about some of the newest images out there that are definitely disturbing.

New classic Brazilian guy by Didio,Leandro Cagliari, in various states of undress of course.

Josh Beech can do it all. Besides the modeling and singing, he’s taking pictures that comment on the personal, political and cultural influences in his travels. A snippet appears on The Malcolm which showcase that this handsome young man is more than just a pretty face.

The Last Magazine, the ultra cool, ultra large fashion/art magazine, needs interns.

There is only one way to top an impressive Vogue Italia cover - show up in the next issue looking even better. Rianne Ten Haken was sexy on the cover of October’s extravaganza but for November Steven Meisel takes her into a stronger territory. With flame red hair and a maniacal grin Rianne heads into a twisted world reminiscent of sci-thriller Safe, even with the dramatic backdrop its hard to take your eyes off Miss Ten Haken.

Two sides of Alla Kostromichova are on display in Numero. The versatile Ukrainian beauty poses for the always imaginative Sebastian Kim and the results are lovely. The color images feature Alla looking very Grace Coddington with a wild red mane and funky ensembles while the black and white pictures feature a sleek blonde Alla. Naturally both versions are completely gorgeous but we can’t help but feel a little favoritism towards the flame red tresses. Which version of Alla do you love?

Chadwick Tyler’s photographs always possess a raw and youthful quality that separates them from the pack. Looking at his latest series for Russh we’re struck by both his insouciant take on fashion photography and the striking presence of Mathilde Frachon. Dressed in gritty jet black ensembles expertly chosen by Stevie Dance, Mathilde looks effortlessly edgy and perfectly in line with Chadwick’s signature style.

With her top 10 Newcomer status, pristine show list and heaps of buzz, Jacquelyn Jablonski has become a major player in just one season. The Jersey born beauty is starting to pop up in editorials and her turn in Cover Magazine by Rick Shane is especially cool. With her thick brows and insouciant attitude she radiates the kind of laid back vibe that makes everything look incredible.
