UK Vogue December 2012 : Natalia Vodianova by Mario Testino

[ChristyLeReveur]

She looks beautiful but I hate how bored she looks. There's no life I'm her eyes.

While the dress she wore is lovely, its too spring for a December cover

Nice cover...love the colors and styling, but this is not Natalia at her best.

 

[VogueDisciple93]

If I had to wear that awful jacket I would have the same expression.

 

[Bank]

"One day with One Direction"

Just why?

 

[Melancholybaby]

The fonts? The jacket? Are people blind to her face? She looks like she's smiling uncomfortably because she's holding a fart in.

 

[thiago:)]

That's awful! Their december covers are usually lovely... What a shame!

 

[Greenway]

Everyone's talking about One Direction but has noone noticed 'Popcorn: the miracle food' Why on earth do we need to know this?

 

[congacon]

such a cheesy cover. she looks like stepford(?) mom.

 

[AD011620]

Vogue goes POP?! seriously? what part of this cover represents this statement?

 

[ALAUU]

After all the speculation over which model would be on the cover, this is a big letdown. I'd have rather seen Karen Elson that Natalia again. And she does look a bit deranged and waxy on the cover.

Um....because popcorn is like the most delicious thing ever???? So of course it warrants a tagline on the cover of Vogue.

It's a bit hard to see the image, not going to fully judge until I see a HQ, that said, it's really springy and not at all winter holiday's feeling. And the POP lettering is terrible, why would they think this is okay???

And erm, I have a confession, I'm okay with the One Direction tagline because obviously it's smart marketing, trying to get the band's fans to buy the issue. And also, because I find them rather amusing. I'm sorry, you can revoke my good taste in music now.

 

[TeeVanity]

don't really know if I like the cover, but the colors are great.

 

[tigerrouge]

I'll buy this if it's on sale for £2 again.

I look at the colors she's wearing and am instantly taken back to the Duran Duran/Miami Vice 80's vibe! Ick!!

That description simply made me giggle. Quite accurate and well written. This, plus that line about popcorn and the rainbow-colored "Vogue goes Pop". Did they try to make a parody of their own magazine?

 

[TianSoFine]

The text needs to die.

 

[Bertrando3]

The smile looks like a smurk or something weird, the tension she put there doesn't work or shall I say the photoshop they used killed her smile and natural beauty. The outfit on the other hand is cute but I don't feel the whole thing, it looks mumzy and old

 

[LUXXX]

I don't like this soccer mom haircut Natalia has been rocking...I wish she would go longer again.

 

[Label Basher]

This is awful. She looks so plastic and I agree like a mannequin. The coat is gross.

The inside contents better be AMAZING or I will be annoyed.

I assumed we would have seen a more festive theme as British Vogue often does for their December covers. But Natalia has delivered a serviceable cover shot. The Valentino just works with the hair and make-up. Although the fonts and text placement ruins the entire lot, as usual.
