UK Harper’s Bazaar November 2024 : Lupita Nyong’o by Alexi Lubomirski

My digital copy is showing 206 pages. Inside front cover ad is Vuitton with Rianne.

The cover story is a different style of shoot for UK Bazaar, while still fitting in with this month's overall theme of art.

Other editorials include The Shape of Water, shot by Agata Pospieszynska, styled by Charlie Harrington, with model Katya Gray outdoors, and Ghost Story, shot by Emma Summerton, Styled by Leith Clark, with model Hannah Motler, shot inside an abandoned-looking house.

There are a few shots of Georgina Grenville in the beauty section, and the Travel section goes to Cuba and Cornwall.

Its some great photography, her skin si glowing but theres something missing from the expressions. It needed more energy and joy for the glow and set but I guess this is the 'Chanel' Lupita.
 
Of course Lupita is beautiful etc etc (that goes without saying but the need to preface her beauty before launching into any criticism is hilariously overly sensitive LMFAO). Just that Alexi is always reliable for turning potentially solid concepts, and with someone like her, into Lifetime/Hallmark Channel movie stills… Lupita looks like Anita Baker with her early-90s short braids and her mother-of-the-bride styling. And let’s not even get into the horrific cover select with the unflattering lighting that has her resembling one half Dr Jekyll and the other half Mr Hyde. Hilariously horrific lighting and no one on that Bazaar team noticed-- likely too entranced fawning over her…

Never could get into this Bazaar that drifts from these Lifetime/Hallmark aesthetics to these all-too saccharine, all-too 13yo girl’s dreams of gentle-waifs-and-druids-marinating-in-flora-and-fauna cosplay. Shame, cuz Agata and Emma are genuine talents elsewhere— preferably in Italian Bazaar.
