There's very little originality in the issue and its subjects so far. I've already seen multiple LV themed editorials (shot in Brazil after the show) in other publications. Ghesquiere, Xavier Dolan, Isabelle Huppert? Please give us someone less predictable. The Freja edit is far from groundbreaking and rather pretentious.

So basically this is another outlet for her clients :lol: I see a lot of Paco Rabanne and Louis Vuitton. She's a great stylist but this is rather disappointing.

I don't need this. It adds nothing new to a my collection of magazines. As if I wasn't rolling my eyes hard enough reading their media kit, Freja's ed did nothing to me. Everything just seems insincere and pretentious.
 
They just slick Freja's hair back, and it looks like the freshest I've seen from her in a while. Don't know how she transform something so simple into greatness. It of course helps that she doesn't say yes to each and everyone knocking on her door.
 
As much as I love Jamie, his ed feels really soulless and boring. And as much as I love Freja, her ed is pretentious and unoriginal.
 
So happy M.A.S. created her magazine! Wish I could work with her! Editorials are fresh and a contemporary view on daily life. Beautiful work.
 
It's very contemporary. I like the style, but I need to see more to convince myself to buy it :)
 
I want to see the Meisel ed :buzz:

Judging from some previews I saw on Instagram, the Meisel feature is not technically an ed. It's more a portfolio with many photos taken by Meisel and put together. Think about the layout of the main ed from Vogue Italia September 2015.

Well at least it's new content! That shot of Jamie and Pat's breasts... lmao!
 
I had it in my hands yesterday. I was really skeptical about her magazine but honestly. This is quite good. The quality of the paper is just crazy, the layout inside is great, the articles are really interesting and some of them funny and the editorials are fresh even if there is a bit too much of Louis Vuitton. This is much better than CR.
 
Such a try-hard cover layout.

It’s hardly surprising that this publication would be anything but another outlet to pimp for all her/their bluechip clients.

Aside from that, the styling is nicely cheeky and doesn’t take itself all too seriously— despite the individuals involved LOL: That brand of deadpan monotony spiked by the occasional Marcel Duchamp humour is… nice. And as predictable, tiresome as the overused irony of ridiculously-expensive designer clothes shown in the most mundane fashion (and that annoying contact sheet layout), it is something she’s/ they're good at. I like the late-90s Wallpaper-meets-Liz Bilberis’ Bazaar era-David Sims aesthetic mixed with a vintage-y feel for 2017 look of the art direction. It’s hilariously on-trend fashion-victmy at how anti-fashion in its presentation it attempts to be. But as a product, it works for me. Advertisers will be lining up to be in this.
 
From Marie Amelie's interview in the FT I expected much more than this, it is far too similar to System, from the cover to the editorials, no idea why she called it mastermind.:doh:
 
Anyone mind giving a review of this issue?

I am thinking about buying this magazine because I love MAS' vision and I also enjoyed her Self Service issue a lot. But this is so expensive....

I bought this today and very disappointed with the Meisel pages...and the font is ugly for my taste...
 
Help! Can anyone who has this issue post snaps of the Meisel ed? I'm currently thinking whether to waste money on this or not.
