“Lovely cover, how I love to see a model with an animal. Freja looks cute,” wrote burbuja8910 right away.
“Cute? Wearing a fur coat while cuddling a lamb is cute? LOL. A tad morbid to me. I enjoy furs so it’s not a matter of animal-activism. It’s just creepily inappropriate and insensitive of an image of a model cocooned in a huge fur coat while cuddling a live animal,” fired back Phuel.
Also not feeling the decision was orchidee: “Freja looks lovely, but I agree that there’s something super sinister about wearing a huge shearling coat while holding a lamb. ‘I’m wearing your mother and father right now. And you’re next!'”
In agreement was justaguy. “Sweet cover, but it is a bit strange with her wearing fur (even if it’s fake) and holding a baby lamb,” he noted.
HeatherAnne shed some light on the issue, writing, “I love it and think it makes for a stunning image. Fashion has always been provocative. I personally prefer this to the sexualization of young teens, or the culturally offensive stuff, the glamorization of hard drugs, etc. Though I can certainly understand, and respect, why others would be disturbed by it.”
