“The text is a mess, and she kind of looks like a CGI game character?” questioned an unimpressed t-rex, the moment the cover dropped just before the weekend.
“She looks like an Avatar,” replied AnaD sharing the same sentiments toward the cover.
In agreement was happycanadian: “She looks like a cartoon character. I’m not mad at her getting the cover – I think it’s fantastic. But, they’ve done wrong by her with this picture and this terrible layout.”
Also not buying it was Miss Dalloway, complaining, “What a terrible cover, wow! From text layout to that shot of her, nothing works. In fact this looks like one of their older covers; dated mess!”
“I don’t really care about her but the real reason I wouldn’t buy this is because of the text! Next to the text, then there’s smaller text and finally more text after that. The layout is horrible, I don’t care who is on the cover, this never works. What were they thinking, seriously?” asked a disgruntled KateTheGreatest.
ThatGuyPaul was left disappointed too, echoing, “This is why I said I don’t want to buy US ELLE. Dreadful layout. I think FKA Twigs is an interesting performer and would love to read about her but sadly she’s profiled on this magazine.”
“That is simply horrible,” declared jal718.
