DUJOUR Magazine #2, March/April 09: Dioni Tabbers by Denise Boomkens

[kimberwyn]

hey guys, here is a new fashion magazine that launched last summer, but relaunched this winter with a new look and website. they blend a commercial feel with interview-driven content that is typical of indie mags..the editorials wont be super lavish as of yet as it's a total indie production by two people, but definitely a magazine to keep your eye on. the relaunch will have the mag printed in a more book-like style with a thicker cover, etc. copies are sold on the website and in select boutiques, but buying from the site is much better, as they ship everywhere. people are always asking where to buy mags on these threads, so it's refreshing to see it available straight from the source!

i hear there is a limited edition collectible art cover of Jordan Dun and a video featuring all the spreads like Self Service does.... will find out soon.

Here's the cover for those who can't see the thumbnail:

And btw it's Erin Wasson, not Jordan Dunn.

Exciting! I love a new mag!

I thought it was Bijou Phillips at first, personally.

 

[sedirea]

Its not Erin. Im pretty sure i've seen that image before, somewhere else or on another cover..

 

[xhommex]

Looks like Tanya Dziahileva to me

 

[kimberwyn]

sorry guys, the cover is Dioni Tabbers (which I spelled wrong in the title), I meant that they are releasing a limited edition art cover and it will either be Erin Wasson or Jordan Dunn I think...and sedirea you probably saw that image on the Internet because it got leaked about a month ago, but its never been in/on another magazine. here are some previews of the eds, more to come!

Dioni is beautiful and that photo is beautiful, but its SO photoshopped to the point where its almost distracting.

I think its on purpose, but i dont see the point, lets just say bad retouches.

i agree, never thought of it as distracting per se because it is indeed a gorgeous photo/cover, but i do think Dioni can shine with less retouching
so i dont really know how to do reviews anyway, so here is just another story...you can get a digital subscription of Dujour for less than 10 bux, so figured it was worth it to share

yea i think its just a bad retoucher because if you look at the rest of this photographer's work..they are all the same kind of exaggerated airbrushing..its her style maybe?

 

[gb_32]

i luv Frida ones. thanks.

 

[enVogue]
