And who better to grace the first cover than 17 year old, well known model, Lindsey Wixson! In the first issue, there is a layout of a 23-page photo essay of her shot by rumored boyfriend and publishing progeny Theo Wenner, a comprehensive roundup of the Spring 2012, and a bunch of other fun goodies.
The cover is bare, but for a quote from Wixson who is, we’d like to remind you, just 17. It reads:
"The night after the shoot I had like blue hair in finger waves and I went to meet Marilyn at Nobu and when I walked in they thought I was Charlize Theron. Oh and I also did go-sees for Calvin Klein. I showed up and the guy was like what have you been modeling for a minute? And I was like, yeah."
The New York Times tsked that the quote “suggests she will never be known as the Joan Didion of her trade,” but I say...never judge a book by it's cover, and that goes for first issues of print magazines too!
