Love #16.5 F/W 2016.16 Remix Issue : Madonna by Mert Alas

I love this :heart:
While I love Madonna, her magazine work can sometimes feel a bit repetitive and frankly boring. Seeing her likes this is exciting and something new - looking forward to see the rest of the shoot.
 
NO. Just NO! I rather see her doing yoga poses with Klein for the gazillion time...
 
This is just a disaster, as everything coming from Madonna - M&M collab. DOn't get me wrong, I have a lot of respect for Madonna for the things she has done and achieved, she is an icon, she also looks great and is in an amazing shape, but when she tries hard to be cool and sort of on the same page as the younger generation, she comes across as desperate and old, and it looks so pathetic
 
I'm really curious as to who will pay the exorbitant cover price to purchase this issue. Surely, her fans have disposable income but are they enough to balance the printing costs of this? Do these remix issues have advertising inside?
 
^How much is this issue, just out of curiosity? Very much doubt I'd even part with £1 for this.. :ninja:
 
^ Previous remix issues cost ‎£20. They sell pretty well actually - I bought them online from a bookstore, and some of the covers were sold out really quickly. Plus they sold them in Bookmarc and Marc Jacobs stores, so I'm sure the customers there could easily afford them.
 
No more pics? Im really curious about it. how many pages?
 
Oh dear! Are skinheads making a comeback? Don't think this is really a kind of aesthetic of subculture to glorify, not in the current social state, but what do I know?
 
^^^ These are a different type of skinheads, Benn. Generally from the Czech Republic and will do anything and everything for a very competitive rate, if you know what I mean… Just look at the bondage suspenders one’s got on— not the kind a White Supremacist skinhead would be caught dead wearing...

I know he’s just 15, but Rocco is such an annoying poseur and totally uninteresting. Super rich kid trying to be down with the grift. He should move to Siberia if he wants to slum it. Useless. The Smith kids may be a lot of thing that irritate many, but at least they’re gorgeous to look at and not impersonating impoverished Eastern European street kids, Occupy Activists— or trying to look hood.

(I’m so sick of these kids from privileged families wannabe hardcore street. It’s not just the likes of him, but designers like Raf who pimp expensive collections copping the homeless streetkid look, complete with a cast of adolescent boy waifs who all look like they haven’t eaten in a few days. It’s insulting to high fashion customers, and it’s insulting to the kids who live this way not so much by choice. Super stupid rich kids and stupid rich designers with nothing better to do.

And her hanging with her son and his hanger-ons in bed with her legs spread open is just embarrassing to me. I thought she got her stank chav out of her system during her rubbish MDNA era… It’s one thing to defy ageism, but it’s so pathetically embarrassing to be hanging with 15 yos like you’re one of them. I’m just going to look at those stunning Richard Corman polas for that raw, cool and effortlessly soulful Madonna I adore.)

I'm still trying to figure it out - is it a typical Remix issue like the previous ones or not? Aka regular magazine with extra content in bigger size, or is it just a separate special edition with just new content? So confusing.

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

Laughed out loud even when I read this weeks ago, but your point is very apt based on the slew of previews which followed.

I suppose we can safely assume most of the credit is down to Mert for that atrocious Vogue Italia youth issue. His 'work' is hardly anything to boast about really. And Marc Jacobs made this packaging effort possible? Well, well.....:innocent:
