Sibling Rivalry

Shhhh...

Young sisters Dakota and Elle Fanning have a pretty impressive resume between the two of them: 17-year-old Dakota has been acting since the age of seven and appeared in movies such as I Am Sam, War of the Worlds, Man on Fire, and the Twilight Saga, while 13-year-old Elle was one of the main characters in last year's blockbuster Super 8. So it's no surprise that the young talents graced the cover of this months W Magazine, which also featured Blake Lively, Julianne Moore, and their respective sisters.

The Fanning sisters are known for their mature looks; Dakota recently came under fire for a Marc Jacobs ad that has been accused of sexualizing a child, while much has been made of Elle's adult fashion sense. This cover shoot has been no different, with the gossip sites already buzz with speculation about whether or not the spread is appropriate. I was on the fence about these pictures, initially, but the more I view them, the better I feel about it. They seem tasteful enough, and come across as cute and precocious in a 'little-girls-playing-in-Mommy's-closet' kind of way, which I think was the point.

But what do you think? Cute, or creepy?
