COVER STORY Katarina Witt doesn't need to be on ice skates to score a perfect 10. For a holiday treat, the Olympic gold medal winner steps off the ice and communes with mother nature. She didn't melt—but you might. Our cover was produced by West Coast Photo Editor Marilyn Grabowski, photographed by Stephen Wayda and styled by Jennifer Tutor. Katarina's hair and makeup were styled by Alexis Vogel for the Fred Segal Agency. Our Rabbit can't resist a winner.
