Yes, we know I just hope that he keeps making it better and VP redeems itself in march.

I wanna see more from it...

[Marcel]

^I dont.

Like I mentioned before, there is something memorable that hasn't been done before. This doesn't make Lara more iconic in my opinion she's just doing what she always did. Being naked in front of the camera and the sets are nothing unusal for French Vogue. Especially the beach one, I said it before but Alien Sex Freind rembered me of the name of it it looks exactly like Sasha Pivovarova in the Cannes special.

I know I will love my copy when it will arrive but if I didn't subscribe I would skip this issue simply because I already have some French Vogues with one editorial that sums up this whole issue, also featuring Lara.

There isn't one shot I like in the Richardson editorial. I think I was expecting a lot more from this issue. But I like it so far..
thanks for the cover scan

[FlanAuxAbricots]

i don't see a reason to criticize it so much, i think it's a great issue. maybe not groundbreaking but still all the eds except the I&V one are great. i know i'll be getting my copy as soon as it hits the newsstands.

[icelynn]

I love, love, love the picture in post 277. Lara looks very beautiful and very unique. I like the "Lara Nue" editorial as well, it's very Kate Moss esque and she has varying facial expressions and it looks cute

[FlanAuxAbricots]

^i thought some poses in "lara by night" were more kate moss.

[enVogue]

Wow so many great pictures "Lara by night" is my favourite so far!
The only one I don't like is "Lara nue", it's nothing special, only nude

[hfgl]

It may have been naive on my part,but i really wanted less nudity.I'm underwhelmed.

[Alien Sex Friend]

yep, that flesh profusion is getting annoying already
plus, as for me, Lara body isnt to expose so much, to b honest

[Dark Noire]

Is the Steven KLEIN ed with Lara the one which they talk about under here?

"RARELY DO I LIKE TO COMMENT ON THE MAJOR BLOG ABOUT A MODEL AND THEIR RISE ..BUT TODAY IM MAKING AN EXCEPTION.

IF YOU THOUGHT THE ARENA HOMES PLUS STORY THAT TRAVIS DID WITH STEVEN KLEIN WAS RACY AND CONTROVERSIAL THEN WATCH OUT! NEXT YEAR TRAVIS IS STARRING WITH MODEL OF THE MOMENT , LARA STONE, FOR WHAT WILL BE THE MOST TALKED ABOUT EDITORIAL NEXT SEASON( BY STEVEN KLEIN)..SEXY DARK AND INTENSE. YOU HEARD IT HEAR FIRST. "

[nanker_phledge]

Hmm...I wish the Goldin/Barbieri ed was longer.The rest is boring, but then again I haven't bought a VP issue for such a long time.It's not that bad but just bland somehow given the expectations.I think the editors need to develop their inspirations or find other sources of inspiration,especially E.Alt and C.Roitfeld's works are too recognizable.

[eword]

only one word: boring.

actually i was expecting something boring cos i don't find lara stone very expressive and versatile as a model. i think a whole issue devoted to her is completely exaggerated.

i don't remember who is Travis ...
but that could be yeah ...
the editorial is lingerie ... very dark (almost vampire sexy policeman a touch of old dsquared madonna and porno ... ouch makes sense ?) and i like it ....
it's inside a sort of prison room ... with boys and lara ... they have a sort of vampire exorcist sex threesome .... that makes more sense, non ?

but too bad it's soooo short ....

this issue really lacks of editorial pages .... i'm serious ....
it's like VP was scared to go further for most of every story and they lack pages because of ad pages ..........

but there's something about the YSL collection (of course it's being sold pretty soon) + an itw with Lara (4p. the text is certainly only 500words and a double page portrait with Riccardo ...) + an article about Marc Jacobs (with the same old boring portrait of MJ topless .... which is a real n'importe quoi and disappointment in VP where they can allow to shoot something new ....)

.... and we complain because it's bad honey ........
I'm getting used to I&V ... but I still wanna throw everytime my eyes come onto the Balenciaga+Dolce .... it's horrible ... it was a try but you realized it's bad (so bad it's just bad ... to quote MJ) well throw it away .... that's not funny ... and i don't care if Carine saw it in an airport in Australia ... it's not funny ....
