LOVE issue 3

Kate Moss for the cover of LOVE.


Love's third issue is dedicated to fashion icons. That's why 8 of the most influencial fashion icons today go naked and did a photoshoot with Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot for the issue's cover.
"For this issue of LOVE we took eight woman who aregenerally acknowledged as the most beautiful in the world, got them to show off their bodies -widely regarded as the most perfect in the world- and photographed them all in the excactly same position for the cover. We did this to show how much they differed physically from one to another, wich is why we also printed their measurments. The point is that 'perfection' is not fixed, timeless or transcendent. It varies as the measurements of our cover girls show."

LOVE's editor-in-chief Katie Grand told VOGUE.COM

Personally, I think that what LOVE tries to portay is beautiful. On this issue all girls' measurement may differ, but they're all slender. It's Naomi Campell, Lara Stone and Natalia Vodianova we're talking about! But then again on the cover of their first issue it was Beth Ditto that was naked on it and she rocked it just as well. With that add, the quotte 'perfection is not fixed' can be completed.
