Marie-Amélie Sauvé's new magazine


instagram/mastermind.magazine
 
Can someone tell me what online retailers are selling this issue? Can't find it anywhere...
 
Wow, an ed with Meisel! that should be interesting.
 
That's it?

I love how "Claire Underwood" is just casually there
 
Why all the indie magazines look the same? And Bruce Webber?

It looks like Faretta. :heart: That's the only good thing about it. The pic is very pretentious and ugly.
 
Good teaser !
I love that the image is funny. Humour is rarely (well) done in fashion magazines.

It is her, she confirmed it in the comments on IG.

Great! :heart: What's her insta btw? :ninja:

I can't believe Marie Amélie came up with something like this cover... It's just so 'indie-mainstream' by now... So unoriginal... So cliché and boring... So self conscious... So pretentious... So done...

She should've put more energy on the cover.
 
Her initials are in a larger font, in the title. That made me cringe a little.
 
OK, so this couldn't be more pretentious but I'll stick around to see Steven Meisel's involvement and then I'm out. Meh!
 
It's simple, chic and timeless. I would add a bit expected once you're familiar with MAS's work but i'm curious about the content.

I hope that this will be an opprtunity for MAS to discover new talents and not always rely on her usual contributors.

In prefer that to CR FASHION BOOK...Which was IMO a quite unoriginal name for a magazine.

Her instagram is lafaretta.

I quite like how indie the cover looks :blush:

Why does it make you cringe? At least it's less obvious than CR Fashion Book, and truth be told, Marie Amelie is on the same level as Carine. Imo, that is.

I'm not a fan of this cover at all, not even Faretta can save it. The layout and font type is perfect, but the shot too pretentious.

Agree with your statements, it looks bad but I´m here for Meisel.

Considering that Meisel didn't get the cover or even have his name printed first, I'm guessing it will be some sort of feature about him rather than actual new work by him. I mean if Meisel shoots for your new magazine, you're not gonna give him the cover and really make waves?!

They should have put his selfie on the cover :D I'd buy that!

I agree. Mirabella's magazine also bore her name. I don't think it's pretentious... It's like designers in general, they use their names for their brands... And I think the name for this one is quite cool. :ninja:

The layout is not that cool tho. Not a fan of the font, it's not very original. Other mags are using similar ones, and MAS shouldn't be a follower... Although as of late she's been pretty much a follower.

She is not a designer nor artist. I find it cringeworthy and self-aggrandising.
