Even just glancing at this front cover you imediately notice the bold colours, this is a good way to get people to notice one magazine before the others on the shelf. Everything that the publisher wants you to notice is bright, bold and a lot lager than anything else on the page. In my opinion the layout is simple, doesn't interfere with the main image. The sell lines frame the image therefore the model becomes a focal point for the reader. 

 The the brightness if the banners allows the reader to be able to find what they're looking for much more easily. I like how the background of the page is kept neutral so that other aspects of the page become much more prominent. Once again, the simplicity of the layout is much more welcoming to the reader than if it was unnecessarily cluttered. Both images are a powerful even though the colours are kept simple.
