Alexa Chung Covers UK Elle March 2012

One of my favourite things about seeing new magazine covers with Alexa Chung on them, is seeing which decade or style she is going to channel. This latest cover - of the UK Elle for March 2012 - takes a stab at the 60s with a twist of exaggerated nowness. The oversized Louis Vuitton crochet collars. The contrast colour lace. All very modern. With the traditional of 60s moderism in place. It's like a bit of a lesson in the history of fashion.


What do you think of this spread? Do you like it or are you over vintage-inspired Alexa moments? I know there are some of you out there who don't share my adoration of all things Alexa - but even so, this is a fresh and very summer 2012 fashion story, right? Let me know.
