Thoughts?

W was starting to fall into a lost identity of being somewhere between Vogue and Cosmo. This definitely leans it a bit more progressive in a Fashion sense.

I have to agree with monk that it looks like every other fashion magazine out there. With those fonts choices, it feels more ESPN/GQ than high-fashion.

Props to Jody Quon. SPD nominated W for Magazine of the Year. They even had Barbara Kruger do a cover. It wasn't even on my radar before.
