COVER STORY Basic instinct told us Playboy readers wanted to see Sharon Stone again. Our cover was produced by West Coast Photo Editor Marilyn Grabowski, styled by Stephen Earabino for Visages Style, L.A., and shot by photographer Michel
Comte. Thanks to Serena Radaelli and Alberto Fava (both for Cloutier) for styling
Sharon's hair and makeup. The white marabou coat is by Adrienne Landau. As our
Rabbit reminds us, "You gotta know when to fold 'em."
