2013, 2009, 2011, 2005 and 2008 ![]()

1998, 2003, 2004, 2008, 2010

It's going to be heavily favoured to the 2000s and 1990s.

^ Yup.
I read the comments on their facebook page and most of people are naming the same three women: Kate Upton (Polar Bare), Brooklyn Decker & Marisa Miller. So if SI based the Top 5 in fan votes alone the 00's will most likely smash the other decades.
However, the voting does say very clearly that the final decision will be made by the editors so I'm sure they'll pick one cover from each decade. I do expect to see the 2013 cover in the Top though.

I voted:
2009 - Bar
2004 - Veronika
1997 - Tyra
1984 - Paulina
1980 - Christie
I like 2013 but it can't win for me because of Kate's facial expression.
edit: oh, the voting is over.
