#43. February'12 Latino covers
Latino = extremely sexual?
MEXICO:
GQ with Adriana Lima, Deep with Candice Swanepoel and Esquire with Irina Shayk. These covers are rather dramatic, sexually attractive and eye-catching because of models' sexy bodies.
But from the second glance you can see that the covers are text-heavy and full of commercial headlines.
What's more important, GQ, Deep and Esquire Mexico represent the drama, the sexual and rebellious spirit of a Latino cover.
ARGENTINA:
Covers are still energetic, dynamic, but front colours are less dramatic, agressive. Argentina covers claim the seaside holiday - style of typical country magazines are effortless, holiday chic. Harper's Bazaar is more a commercial magazine than a local one but latino motives can be seen through the printed jacket and rather agressive make-up.
BRAZIL:
Naked Raquel Zimmerman covering Status magazine or Adriana Lima with even two covers of Vogue? Mmm, strongly associated with Brazilian carnival.. Definitely, I am dreaming of it. The Junior cover with Claudio Hernandes - perfect, not glossy or weird, just perfect body on the suitable cover for it.
And finally, my lovely SPAIN:
Stunning Beyonce and... I am in love how the Harper's Bazaar cover represents the silhouette of Kasia Struss and front colours are so playful and enjoyable. You just can feel the fluides of joy, flirt and sexuality.
You just can see how well the concept of sexuality fits Latino covers. Amazing!
