Coverline
This issue of Vanity Fair does not have many coverlines. This suggest that having Caitlyn Jenner on the front page is enough to draw in costumers.
This issue of Time is the same as Vanity Fair. It does not have many coverlines as Martin Luther King is an inspiration and has been award man of the year the issue is all about him so he is more likely to draw in loads of costumers.
The issue of Teen Vogue has many coverlines that are covering the image. Also, the coverlines are in a smaller font meaning that they are not as important as Kylie Jenner who is on the frontcover. However, they are covering most parts of the image which could also suggest that they are using Kylie to target teenagers unlike the other the other two issue of magazines.
Main Coverlin
The main coverline "Call me Caitlyn" is positioned in the middle of the page in front of Caitlyn Jenner which suggests that Vanity Fair devoted most of this issue on Bruce Jenner changing into a female. The magazine doesn't really focus on transgender issues meaning that this issue might have gotten a lot of costumers.
The magazine has no obvious tagline. However, there is a large image of Martin Luther King which suggest that the issue is a special issue of the magazine.
The main coverlines being "Music Special" and "Exclusive Being Kylie Jenner" are positioned at the top and the bottom of the page. They are in a bigger font then the other coverlines suggesting that they want people to get the latest gossip and to be able to get that they summaries and make the headlines more visible.
Title 
The title of the magazine has a very basic design which is at the top of the frontcover. As it behind the image it suggests that the magazine title is not very important unlike the image on the front cover.
The title of the magazine also has a basic design and it very noticeable on the frontcover.
