Surprisingly, the cover seemed to leave the majority underwhelmed. “This is a lovely surprise considering the speculations that it’s probably Kim [Kardashian] on the cover. I like it, very fresh and summery, even though Alicia doesn’t convey much emotion in print,” wrote dodencebt the second the cover dropped.
“It reminds me of Christy Turlington. I was very surprised when I saw her cover story. I never thought that she could be very great in print,” confessed kewkaw.
“I actually like this. It reminds me of the 90s. It feels so natural, and it’s actually refreshing and relaxing. However, I wish they placed the logo behind her. Amazing how she booked US and UK Vogue in a year,” pointed out a pleasantly surprised MON.
Not everyone was so enthusiastic. “What a bad cover, wow! Her face expression is not cover worthy, there had to be better images than this. But then I really think Vikander always lacks that spark she has on the big screen in magazines, she just doesn’t work in print for me,” complained a disapproving Miss Dalloway.
HodanChloe agreed, echoing, “Her expression and pose looks off here. She’s so beautiful but she just doesn’t photograph well.”
“I thought she was wearing a dress splattered in wet sand until I clicked on the larger image, and man what a letdown it was to see this bigger. Terrible dress, vapid expression, terribly awkward pose. Bah,” voiced HeatherAnne.
