I've made some decisions...

@jorgepalomo your second entry gave me life! Condragulations! You are the winner of this week's challenge!
Also a shout out to all the others who participated, I really loved all your work!! Hope you enjoyed this challenge x

 

[JPineapple]

Thank you!

And for this week's maxichallenge the category is:

THE NEW HARPER'S BAZAAR
​

I know we all love to create Vogue covers but it's time to explore new horizons. Imagine this situation: Glenda Bailey is (finally) out and now, you (and Carine*) are in charge of the american edition and have to give us a refresh image of the magazine... if you like it, you can redesign the logo or do whatever you need to make Harper's Bazaar a thing again.

Start your engines and may the best cover win!

*Carine's name is optional.

Splendid theme, Jorgepalomo!!
Very keen to see how this will play out because Harper's is such a cookie-cutter brand.

Ooh boy, this is gonna be fun!

As the new editor, first order of business is for the magazine to represent women of all ages. Who better right?

crmsnsnwflks has already won for me (sooo good!) but here is my 2 cents worth anyway.

My third attempt

First order of business, real models.





P.S: This was a b*tch to complete. I couldn't quite settle on the proper text color. There are also not enough high quality, and amount of shoots Grace has done. I'd love feedback on this.​

 

[Benn98]

I worry that it's too cropped, @SLFC , and that the colours are not striking enough especially with it being a b&w cover. But I get the vibe you were going for, I think. Natural and unfussed without dramatic trimmings which pairs so well with Grace and her vibe/background. Plus her smile looks authentic.

Yeah like I said struggled at a lot with making a decision on the colors. Nothing seemed to work. Maybe I should've tried a different layout, but I thought this sort of layout fit best.

Thank you, Cadence. After seeing the other entries, I thought that my cover was different + I noticed that the image is not as striking as Margot's, so imagine my satisfaction when someone actually liked it for what it is.

My problem with your cover art is the masthead. I think it would be much better if you didn't add shadows in it as the whole layout lacked cohesiveness, but it's a beautiful photo and I'd love to see Grace on the cover of HB soon. She's such an underrated model.

 

[aracic]

The layout is well thought out actually, but I'd probably play more with the fonts and space and size of letters considering that it's just one big title (something like Vogue Italia) but overall I don't think you should worry much cause it's a very pretty cover!
