Charlotte Casiraghi Covers French Vogue's September Issue (PHOTO)

While everyone gets worked up over the Duchess of Cambridge's questionable fashion choices, Vogue Paris has focused its attention on one royal whose stylishness is undeniable: Charlotte Casiraghi.

The 25-year-old shows off her fabulous genes on the cover of French Vogue's September issue, her windswept hair and smoldering eyes captured by photographer Mario Testino.

It's a seriously sexy turn for the royal, whose lineage includes her mother, Princess Caroline of Monaco; her grandmother, Grace Kelly; and her uncle and aunt, Prince Albert II of Monaco and Princess Charlene.

Unlike her fashion-fearful aunt, however, Casiraghi has jumped into the fashion industry headfirst, sitting front row at runway shows and working with Gucci's Frida Giannini on her equestrian uniforms. American Vogue even profiled the stunner last September, photographing her on horseback and posing in her riding togs.

Now editor-in-chief Emanuelle Alt has gone the royal route, glamming up the preppy Casiraghi for French Vogue's all-important September issue. What do you think of Alt's cover choice? Check it out and sound off below.

Yes. She resembles very much her mum, Princess Caroline, when she was the same age. She's a natural beauty; I just hope she does not lose her looks as her mother did.

She's gorgeous. Sorry but Kate is plain, imo, not even in the same league as Charlotte of Monaco her beauty is otherworldly.

The cover doesn't do her justice - the makeup is hiding her. She is stunning, better looking than her mother & odd looking brothers.

I totally agree with you. The eye makeup is horrible. She is much more beautiful than this photo leads you to believe.

She is gorgeous without a doubt, but so is one of her brothers...Andrea. The other brother, not so much.

She is the spitting image of her mother Princess Caroline. Her grandmother, Grace Kelly, was a natural beauty with classic features and she did not need to wear tons of make up. The next photo shoot should showcase Charlotte in her natural state - sans make up; I realize Vogue endorses many cosmetic products but they should be enhancing not masking real beauty.

I thought she looked like one of Stephanie's kids.

I love googling Charlotte. The pictures, even a book about her "Fan Club".... Sadly a lot of the best websites about her are now defunct (Sergio Amaya, Eternalmuse), but one of my fav's that's still up is townsend's blog. The coolest thing Charlotte Marie Pomeline ever did was Ever Manifesto. I wish she'd do more with that.

First time I notice how beautiful her mouth is.
Very pretty girl. Can't say much else about her except that she seems to be handling the attention well so far.

Stunning young lady. Let's hope she can hold it together better than her mother did.
