Another age issue?
The entire concept is so boring and overused...don't like Kate at all,instead Gisele and Amber looked good
And why did they dress Kate like an Anna's clone?
She looks bland and everybody knows that she has a glam-rock style and not a vapid-granny one
US Vogue is reaching to old clientele I guess
Quite disappointing

at least it's something "kate"! if you didn't notice, her style is very 60s/brigitte bardot inspired.

Eh, not impressed with the cover choice or the actual photo.

For this particular issue, Iman would have been the perfect cover choice.

Graceful Elegance
--> this is the age ed accompanying the article
60s- Karen Elson
40s - Sasha P.
30s - Raquel Zimmerman
20s - Maryna Linchuk
50s - Tanya D

THE best form this issue!

I love the sasha one! is just stunning
Raquel reminds me the blond woman from Lipstick Jungle (can't remeber her name at this moment)

Why so hostile? A little humor is just what this thread needs.

Thanks for the scan, Luxx! You're real good at scanning. It's so clear.

I agree... in principal. But seeing recent pictures of Kate looking like a hag with a ciggie in her mouth just killed it for me.

I'm repeating myself...but Kate has already been represented as an icon for the 'Age issue' in 2001.So I don't see the point really.

Kate can bring so much to the table... why on earth put such a boring photo on the cover?!

Four hours! Four hours on the train, Kate concludes, is an intolerable torture. Her response, as ever, is very Kate: "Let me see if we can get the chopper."


The interview is great.

Its probably the most human and realistic interview I've read of hers. She saves money, she invests, shes troubled by virtually the same things as everyone else.

Great read.

thank you for the HQ Luxx!
i think some people probably missed my point, i wasn't expecting a really exciting cover shot, i was just expecting kate to look a bit more like herself, maybe the hair, just change the hair and she'd look less old...they airbrush her face but age her with the styling, this is what is so frustrating. SJP's cover was much edgier than this, i think it was the best US Vogue cover in a while, she looked like herself and she was sat between Mr Big's legs, i mean, come on...even the dress was edgier... not to mention that, as we all know, Kate is only on the cover because nowadays she is a celebrity, you look at this cover and you just don't see a model.

the ageless editorial looks really good.
the cover, however, is boring like all other US vogue covers but what else can we expect? US vogue is all about selling. i guess anna doesn't think an edgier vogue paris/italia esque cover will sell.

There's a pained, bloated expression on Kate's face which I find quite age-ing and not at all fabulous.

There seems to be a lot of pained expressions on the cover of Vogue in the recent past.

I have just stopped buying vogue.There are much better ways to spend money, and better magazines with more fulfilling content.
