Agree so much on this, she needs to have her presence more in bigger magazines

Maybe that's why the INSPIRE-Rule costume for this year's a-nation reminds me of The Diva dress in the magz. I hope he's going to provide her with better styling and fashion styles for further lives.

:yes:yes:yes

Harper's Bazaar is such as DAMN CLASSY magazine and I'm SOOO happy Ayu went with the same classy style. She looks SOO GOOD

My favorite is the cover dress and the pink one. A-m-a-z-i-n-g.

Ayu, please stylize your next album like this. No more Party Queen or mushy love again with textures put on soft light blending mode..

Party Queen's original concept was pretty amazing imo.

The mushy LOVE again thing will probably never be repeated again unless she's crazy.

She's damn hot!!

^^ Party Queen could have been awesome if she had pushed it further, but she stopped way too early and in my opinion look bad. I like displaying my Ayu albums on my bookshelf, and TBH, Ayu with ass sticking out kinda doesn't fit in with the rest (even though she'd done naked before, it's always been very gorgeous and classy)

I don't think it worked for her, I see this working waaaaay better.

The stylist(Alvin) said that Secret and a song for XX was his favorite from her discography, but did he mean cover wise? In that case it's kinda funny because they're extreme opposites. a song for xx is her face with little to no obvious photoshop and all about facial expression. Secret is photoshoped so hard that Ayu's waist is like 6 inches, with bling blings and more pose-based than expression based.

I love both TBH so I'm really looking forward to the collaboration between Alvin and Ayu.

The new concept was weird. I bet Timmy suggested it to her.

And Ayu said that Secret/ASFXX were her favorites if she had to choose in terms of just... general album-liking.

^ Reading fail from my part. But this makes it even more interesting though, I don't think Ayu has mentioned that before.

Yes, her usual answer is a canned response like... "My last album is my favorite."

But if she had to choose, I think ASFXX or Secret are good choices. I recall she said Secret was a bit like a second ASFXX? Or was that MY STORY?

can't open the video...

can somebody upload the video please...

Except for the cat woman pic DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN GURL THOSE PICS ARE HOT FIERCE AWESOME AND FREE OF FLAWS :heart

Some more behind the scenes shots.

I gotta say this is one of the best magazine shots from ayu in recent years. Very classy.

I'm not a fan of the nose hoop thing, but everything else is just beyond perfection. :thud

Oh my goodness, I almost have no words! So amazing! Shows with the right team/magazine etc that Ayu can go beyond blank pouty expressions for shoots. I'd love to see some of this styling transfer to stage. Squeeee!
