Lena Dunham's Glamour Cover Is From The Waist Up, Yay!

Lena Dunham's Sexy Magazine Cover

You won't be reading any complaints from us about Lena Dunham's new Glamour cover!

In the photo, the 27-year-old wears a sleeveless white and grey Rag & Bone dress that shows off the Golden Globe winner's famous arm and back tattoos.

A dramatic cat-eye glams up the ensemble while a sleek short bob à la Charlize Theron at the 2014 Oscars looks chic.

Short hair suits the director, who has a memoir coming out this fall.

"I have real hair impatience and I cut my hair off really short about a year and a half ago," she says in a behind-the-scenes video. "It was completely liberating. I felt more like myself than I ever had before. Now I'm kind of growing it out a little, working with a fifth-grade school girl look. But I'm sure I'll go back to it because having short hair is delightful and makes you feel incognito in a really cool way."

As for her Glamour photo shoot, the brunette cutie says she felt excited if a bit out of her element. "The experience of doing a fashion photo shoot is it's exciting," she says in the video, "because every girl likes to play dress-up and it's nerve wracking because lots of different people are looking at you and whispering to each other and it's a funny mix of feeling really proud that you're there and really like 'I don't do things like this, I should be home.'"

We're glad that Lena went out of her comfort zone to pose for this gorgeous photo shoot!
