Harper’s Bazaar France Homme #1 F/W 2025.26

I love that the brand is introducing Harper's Bazaar France Homme. Step it up US Harper's Bazaar! However, I am not impressed with any of the covers or subjects. That said, I hope that there are decent men's fashion editorials inside and in the future.

I think maybe Italy will follow that road...US not sure...

Hope is good inside too...

Now they have Woman, Decor and men....next? collections?...
 
This is big news! There's a market for this. The new generation of guys are very into fashion, and it's sad Conde Nast killed L'Uomo and Vogue Hommes at this moment. GQ doesn't care fashion, the euro and asian Vogues does. I hope this make some stir, and good luck to Harper's Hommes!
 
Refreshing to see a new mens title. The covers look quite similar to the re-brand that L'Officiel Hommes had in the mid 2010s. Here's hoping for good quality printed paper and good editorials.
 
The second cover is gorgeous. I prefer this logo to the original design (it was supposed to be like the Interiors logo) reminds me of the early men's spin-offs.

None of them works.

The logo is AWFUL!!!

The intern who worked on this should be fired.

The layout is not even cheap, it's non existant.

The lack of inspiration is clear.

Then again it feels soooo similar to Harper's Bazaar Italy and France.

Can't believe we used to have Vogue Hommes Japan and L'Uomo Vogue which were the best magazines around at that time and now we have this lol just a sign of the times I guess, poor generations who get that instead of what we had.

Cover 1: they wanted something groundbreaking and a modern day Napoleon but they ended up with a caricature, hair and makeup is ridiculous.

Cover 2 : it's probably the best out of the 3 but just because of the great face and long hair, the styling is just stupid.

Cover 3 : typical parisian guy waiting for the subway.

Why WHY WHYYYYYYY magazine editors are so uninspired ??? I'll be called boomer but I can't tell you how little I care, I just want REAL magazines with REAL vision and PASSION and who present something meaningful to the readers. Can anybody truly trulyyyyyy say they were SUPER DUPER INSPIRED by creating these 3 covers???? These are just ''preview images'' with the cover logos and bar code that bring nothing to us. I find way more inspiring photos on Pinterest come on now! Indie magazines time and time again have proven that with little budget can create way more beautiful and interesting photoshoots than these huge corporations with thousands of ad money. Then again ALL THE GREATS are gone or forbidden:
- Avedon
- Demarchelier
- Testino
- Lindbergh
- Webber

So what can we expect from these men's editions or magazines nowadays anyways? Just easy consumable instagram ready images that will NOT stay in our minds decades from now. It's just sad. I'm not hopeful for the editorials seeing just these 3 covers truth be told.
