Double covers for a monthly magazine are not unusual, providing buyers a choice in which cover they would most like to pick up, but the Elle China October 2011 issue stepped up its game and featured triple covers.
Fei Fei Sun, Liu Wen and Shu Pei are each featured on a separate cover of the October issue of the magazine. Sun is styled in a gorgeous cotton candy colored mini dress with floral embroidery, while Liu Wen is decked out in a stunning green velvet gown, matching chunky bracelet and bold red lips. Finally, Shu Pei appears in a sheer, sparkly top and fitted pencil skirt.
The Shu Pei cover is undoubtedly my favorite of the three. Check out the Elle China October 2011 covers and decide which one you love.
