Issue 100: the staff covers
See the Stylist team's cover designs
The Stylist team were so impressed by the covers you created for our 100th issue, we thought we'd all have a go - designing, painting and even baking our own entries in an effort to out-do our colleagues.
We asked you to carefully consider all of our hard work, and pick your favourite. The votes have been counted, and we're pleased (if not a little miffed) to reveal that your winner was our beauty director, Joanna McGarry! Our deputy editor, Susan Riley, came in second, and our associate editor, Alix Walker, third.
Many thanks for all your votes, and we'll be in touch with the winner of the Peggy Porschen baking prize shortly. Until then, take a look at all of the staff covers in the gallery below...

Alexandra Fullerton, fashion director
"The theme ‘celebrate’ immediately made me think about party dressing and the eternal ‘what to wear’ question. I knew I wanted to feature a dress on the cover and this season there are so many beautifully opulent pieces around. Brocade is one of my favourite fabrics for autumn and Alexander McQueen had some of the best. I wanted to focus on the fabric, which is so beautiful and party-appropriate, so I scanned in a panel of the dress and then picked out Stylist’s logo in a similarly gold coloured font to reiterate the glamourous celebratory mood of our 100th issue."
