Cover Rumor Thread

Every L&I editorial/cover starts to look like the other by now...

Unfortunately I guess we will most likely to see L&I covers & eds for Vogue Japan for the rest of the year. I think they shot all the Fall/Winter eds right after the fashion week in March before the wide lockdown in most countries. Apparently Vogue Japan is releasing those works issue by issue. But I am afraid those works by L&I are the only ready materials they have in hand and unless they commissioned other sources to shoot more stuff recently, we will see L&I for October, November and December.
 
After all that huge buzz that Jennifer Lopez had earlier this year (Hustlers + Versace + Super Bowl) I wonder if now after having an Emmy nomination she has a chance to be on Vogue US!

The rumour was that she was scheduled for a US VOGUE cover earlier In the year for her wedding, debuting her Atelier Versace wedding dress but the wedding and subsequently the cover were postponed due to Covid19
 
Sad thing is, after thirty years of enthusiasm, I'm in agreement with the sentiment.

At this stage, my only real interest is in UK Vogue and French Vogue. I might have a lot of opinions about what Edward puts out, but at least he seems to believe in print and he's doing what he can to keep the magazine alive and kicking. And things like Tatler and French Elle are light bites that I'm happy to pick up.

But most of the publications I used to have time for are now a shadow of their former selves - US Elle is a husk, and aside from its cover choices Vanity Fair is a chore to read, and titles like Allure are limping along with no purpose. Who knows what will happen at US Bazaar, but I'm not inclined to gamble on a positive outcome.

US Vogue, I calculated that I've bought five issues during the past ten years.

And now the main newsagents in my country is gone, I'll be having to buy most titles over the internet, which makes it even less likely that I'll bother getting a copy.

However, if I'm not spending money, time and attention on new magazines, the positive side is - I love the magazines I already have, and I should put some funds into creating a proper storage and display set-up for a core collection of treasured issues. An out-there idea is creating something of my own, which is so far away on the horizon I can barely see it.

Winding up my interest in something that's been a big hobby as well as part of my identity, having worked in print... it's strange days.
 
Red Uk - Corinne Bailey Rae
Marie Claire - digital - Lily Cole
 
An odd choice for Red, but unsurprising in some ways after the immense backlash they received for having had two POC on their covers in the last six years.

I didn’t realise Corrine was still around / recording!
 
Collier Schorr was on set with Freja Beha Erichsen this weekend accordin to her latest instagram post
 
"For the first time in Vogue’s 128-year history, all 26 global editions have united to celebrate positive voices from around the world in a global portfolio of photography and a shared issue theme: Hope. #BritishVogue’s submission is Second World War veteran and NHS fundraiser Captain Sir Thomas Moore. Back in April, as Britain was approaching the peak of the coronavirus, #CaptainTom decided to walk a hundred laps of his garden and raise £1,000 for @NHSCharitiesTogether by his 100th birthday on 30 April. By the time he celebrated his century, donations exceeded £32 million. “I feel hopeful that, after this, throughout the world, nation after nation will be friends with one another,” Captain Tom told Vogue. See the portfolio in the September 2020 issue, on newsstands and available for digital download Friday 7 August and click the link in bio for more on the global #VogueHope project.

As mentioned before, all editions uniting for a September issue project. Captain Sir Thomas Moore will be in there for the UK, though no word on if that's a cover. I assume it's not, but who knows.
 
Some of those images the editors chose are quite embarrassing. Thank goodness they’re not covers.
 
Please don't let that be the cover! Don't get me wrong, I'm as fascinated with Captain Tom as much as the next bloke, but I'm sorry, why would such an image be considered worthy for the cover of the most important month in fashion? As if someone looking to buy bags and coats would want an image of Capt Tom instead. The image belongs on something like Time or a newspaper supplement. You're a fashion magazine, do fashion!
