Undoubtedly, 2009 was Lara Stone‘s year. From runway to campaigns and magazines, the Dutch model has taken the fashion industry by storm. Her magazine covers alone make up quite an impressive list. In addition to covering French Vogue twice this year, the buxom blonde also covered American publications such as Vogue and W, which named her “Fashion’s It Girl”.
Despite her curvier shape, Lara has managed to dominate in an industry obsessed with size, and as the year comes to an end, we don’t see her star fading anytime soon. Lara even says herself that modeling is the only career she sees herself doing, and after looking at her meteoric success–who can blame her?

V magazine offers us a first glimpse of their “size” issue with a layout by Mr. Terry Richardson himself. The feature stars Jacquelyn Jablonski and plus-size model Crystal Renn striking similar poses while wearing identical outfits styled by Mel Ottenberg. Entitled, “One Size Fits All”, Renn and Jablonski prove that high fashion can work on just about any size.

Fashion editor Alex White mixes and matches an insane amount of denim for W‘s latest issue. The layout stars Constance Jablonski surrounded by a gang of male studs played by Joan Pedrola, Isaac Weber and Marlon Teixeira. Photographed by Claudia Knoepfel and Stefan Indlekofer, “Beyond Blue”, brings a high fashion twist to the classic look.
