The March 2008 issue of iD magazine features a winking Raquel Zimmermann on the cover photographed by Emma Summerton. With Bridget Bardot style make up, Raquel’s curl locks were held back by a cute black bow. But that wasn't why I was intrigued. After seeing numerous covers featuring models in a mid-wink snap, I started to wonder why that was! After all a wink frozen in time can look strange (think Gemma Ward on the September 2007 cover). No one I asked seemed to know the question as to why that was, but it turns out the answer was on Wikipedia, apparently the when you tip the "i-D typographic logo" on it’s side, it reveals a winking smiley.
Cute tie in or just silly?
