Juergen Teller's son is an adult already? Wow. And 50 covers for the 50th issue? Can't wait for the 100th...

Nice to see Malgosia as always.

Some unnamed photographer called this season 'the Amelia Gray season'. Joke aside, it's mind-boggling how a Onlyfans/your average influencer/porny-looking face can make it this high in fashion. Nepo-vibes matter.

It is so absurd how DM casting will push a face like that to such a high level and everyone else follows.

I personally like Amelia a lot, even if I totally understand why or how someone might not get into her looks/works. She's got that "cheap and chic" vibe, meaning it in a good way, that I enjoy when put in the right (editorial) context.

Well, it's not like it never happened before and won't happen again, "hype" (wherever it comes from, and how it's done) is always annoying to me, even when it's a model I do really like who's suddenly "hyped to the max". As I said in my previous post, I don't mind Amelia getting some jobs, I do like her. But gotta agree with you that too much will most likely turn me off at some point, like she's everywhere and every "yaysayer" will praise her work as if she were the only model left on earth.

Before I post the Amelia's ed (our dear @penny609, for your eyes exclusively! ❤️ ), I have to say that reference to tFS (@GIVENCHYlover, a huuuge thank you for posting it!) was such a day-maker for me! I mean, I've been here (almost every day) for the past 10 years, and I didn't realise what a bunch of *NASTY* people/commentators you people are!!! 😂

only thing that comes to mind with Amelia is the indie-sleaze aesthetic which is the moment I suppose, if you're feeling that kind of thing.

Comments on TFS are hardly a reflection of the digital world in general, this is more a backwater that's composed of the people who actually still buy print magazines, which has long since ceased to account for much in the media world.

If you're someone who seeks that old-fashioned connection between the content being produced on the printed page and the reader who consumes it, then this forum is invaluable, and you'll learn to utilise the comments in ways that are useful to you. If that means treating most of it as white noise, so be it.

But if you're someone who prioritises tongues wiping your **** clean, then you'd be better off staying off the internet in general, and living in a untouchable bubble of your pristine artistic genius. Just remember that if there's a price tag on your product, then the entire process involves convincing someone to pay that price.

Balancing the artistic with the commercial is usually a hard thing for anyone to "get right". How you assess the reactions to your output? Do you take them as a personal affront, or do you welcome them as market research? If I don't like a magazine that you spent ages putting together, is that my right as a consumer, or does it represent a rejection of you on a more personal level? The lines are easily blurred.

Love the Gisele covers and editorial. Most of the looks are great too. However, with Miami being as beautiful as it is, the location of this shoot is surprising and questionable.

Spotted this sat on the shelves in WHSmith earlier this week and as to be expected, the issue is HUUUUUUUGE. Absolutely massive, could barely lift the issue with just the one hand. Naturally, however, with POP delivering us umpteen covers... the Gisele Bundchen covers were no where to be found.

Thanks a million @Zorka for the goodies, as always!

Since the Gisele covers were released first, they should have gotten more availability.

same here. My newsagent sent me pictures a few days ago of all the stocks they received for this issue, around 50 copies and not even one single Gisele cover... which is a bummer.

I am wondering why her covers are so "rare"? I thought it would be the main covers to be distributed...
