Feel free to select a new theme for us..

 

[Toni Ahlgren]

Let's do it like this then, @crmsnsnwflks announces a new theme and @vogue28 can choose the winner.

I think we need to inform @cottonmouth13 first just in case they forgot to visit this forum and update the winner of last month's challenge.

Can someone message them on Instagram? I think they're more active on IG but I can't recall their username anymore.

Okay, while Waiting for Godot , *I'll* be the one who is gonna suggest a new theme(s), and our precious @vogue28 will announce EVERY WEEK'S winner/finalist in the next 30+ days. After that, @cottonmouth13 will be The Honourable Judge who will choose the final winner of the previously four ones (announced by @vogue28). So, as you can already guess, the new theme(s) is:

FASHION WEEK S/S 2024

So, starting from tomorrow, feel free to chose your favourite piece or detail from a certain Collection (from Fashion Shows: Fashion Week, Runway, Designer Collections), and try to make it a most spectacular/original/unique single image or collage fashion magazine's Cover.

New York Fashion Week S/S 2024 : Sep 8 - 13, 2023
London Fashion Week S/S 2024 : Sep 15 - 19, 2023
Milan Fashion Week S/S 2024 : Sep 19 - 25, 2023
Paris Fashion Week S/S 2024 : Sep 25 - Oct 3, 2023

P.S. @vogue28 can *ALSO* be a participant which means that they can choose their Cover as a winner of a given week (or all four weeks) if they decides so.

P.P.S. Don't forget, we have a full month to track down @cottonmouth13

I saw this headpiece and i kept thinking of it as th O on a cover. The editing is a little rough on the tiles it needed a few hours.

I hear you, my dear @Paul Lintag , but *PRETTY PLASE* have a bit more patience and understanding when it comes to this specific thread!

Our beloved @vogue28 are literally overwhelmed with the ongoing fashion month (not to mention *ALL* the new Magazines'/Fashion Ads' threads, posts and comments!!!), so it is quite natural and understandable that they are not present on this thread as they used to be. On the other hand, I personally - regardless of how much I am delighted with the vast majority of MFW collections (and, therefore, I have at least five "mind-blowing" Covers in my head! - currently I'm handling at least ten (some personal, some business) things at once, but sadly, despite the fact that, in addition to an extremely high IQ and the fact that I've been a member of Mensa society since I was fifteen years old, at the time being I have mental capacity only for one and a half (okay, maybe) two of them!

To cut the long story short, every fashion month is just *THAT* - a (totally and utterly crazy/hectic/frenzy) fashion month. But, also, given that we have only six days until the end of it, as I already said, just a little more patience - and then we'll have our very own "Gunfight at the O.K. Corral" aka The (proper) Cover Challenge!!!

 

[vogue28]

Thank you for everyone's patience over the past few weeks/months. I'm in the mood for a total REVIVAL and extremely willing to get this thread back on track, because it's one of my absolute faves here at theFashionSpot!

New Theme: MODEL MANIA!

Following the supermodels as Vogue's September cover girls, the covers of W Magazine by Mert Alas & Marcus Piggot, and the massive model extravaganza Luigi & Iango have gifted us via the covers of Vanity Fair Italia, let us celebrate the faces and personalities of the industry. Let's... GO!

I will announce the winner on October 5th.
