As always, forum members couldn’t wait to debate. “Wasn’t Rosie last year’s model choice for the same issue? I remember the ed was perfect! This also looks really good, let’s see how the editorial will turn out…” miguelalmeida commented the moment the covers surfaced.

“OMG, I’m in LOVE with the actual cover!” Fotoholic24 raved.

Sharing the same attitude was Srdjan: “I love the outfit choice for the newsstand cover and I adore the pastel colours. Of course, Rosie herself is the best part of this issue! She silently became a favorite of mine.”

KateTheGreatest was a fan too, writing, “I’m excited to see Rosie, they do use her a lot but I prefer her than most other people constantly getting covers.”

The negativity soon came flooding in, however. “The styling is terrible, I don’t care if it’s Saint Laurent, the chiffon dress looks cheap. I don’t understand the Rosie love, she’s a terrible model, she missed her true calling as a stylist,” said HeatherAnne.

“I don’t like her face here — it looks too long and exaggerated but I love everything else about the cover,” MyNameIs admitted.
