At least they are all dressed. But all the satin kind of reminds me of a brothel. Thw women on the power panel which is the actual cover are Rooney Mara, Mia Wasikowska, Jennifer Lawrence and Jessica Chastain. And Jennifer Lawrence is in the top center. Smart of them to include the awesome Adepero Oduye.
Since they don't really look like themselves here they are from L-R: Rooney Mara, Mia Wasikowska, Jennifer Lawrence, Jessica Chastain, Elizabeth Olsen, Adepero Oduye, Shailene Woodley, Paula Patton, Felicity Jones, Lily Collins, and Brit Marling.

Where is the WGA in all this? They have never stood up for their female members who are paid less

A brothel?? Sorry that's just weird. Not what I see at all. It looks like they are paying homage to the 1930s Hollywood era....might have translated better if the shot was in black and white.

I thought the same thing! At least they are all dressed, but not for long I'm sure. This cover should be a big hit with gay men.

Appreciated for the VF link. This magzine goes indie this time: that's very awesome to see Brit Marling, Elizabeth Olsen (both my favorites as I'm a young female, and Rooney Mara, Mia Wasikowska kinda make sense), Jennifer Lawrence on it, but just everybody wears bit oddly heavily maked-up lips. 8)
