UK Vogue June 2012 : Kate Moss by Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott

Does anyone know which British athletes are featured in the Sporting Gods ed?
 
Flipped through this issue today, and all around a pretty good issue. My only fault with it is that it lacks on the fashion aspect. Seemed more like Conde Nast were commissioned by Mayor of London and the Olympic Committee to make a London Olympics-based issue, whilst promoting the city as well.

In saying that, Paper Plates is mind-blowingly good. The set design, the styling - utterly flawless.
 
Thanks Rotex. :flower: And how fit does Louis look? Gorgeous! And I wouldn't be surprised to see that Tom Daley is somewhere in the editorial... he seems to be one of the faces of the British team.
 
Louis' image is from the London Pride editorial, not the athletes ones. Tom Daley also appears in London Pride.

The Sporting Gods editorial, which is the Lindbergh one with the athletes has:

Hannah Whelna, Luke Campbell, Jodie Williams, Rebecca Downie, Louise Hazel, Kelly Southerton, Heather Fell, Euan Burton, Vanessa Raw, Laura Bechtolsheimer, Chrystall Nicoll, and Laurence Halsted.
 
Ahhh... thanks Honeycombchild for clearing up the difference between the two editorials! And thanks for telling which athletes are in the sporting gods ed. :flower: I was right though... I knew that Tom Daley would be in an ed!

Aside from Mert & Marcus' edit with Kate, this is a mediocre issue. Already I'm tired of reading about the Olympics and the athletes involved. But I couldn't have asked for a more fashionable cover. You haven't seen nothing yet.. it is even more glorious on the shelves.
 
The London Pride editorial could have had more consistency, I didn't like how the pictures didn't really seem to go together. However, individually their are some really nice photographs in that ed. And as for the Sporting God's editorial.... it's great! I love that it was shot in black and white and the athletes they chose to feature look so strong.
 
Kate's cover and ed is amazing!! Love everything about it! I could do without the rest of the eds, although Sporting Gods is beautiful it's not a fashion layout which is what's lacking here.
 
I have to say, aside from some gorgeous shots in the cover story, this issue isn't for me. While it's early days with the redesign, the impression I'm forming is that their aesthetic has got sharper but something about their content has become emptier.

Anyhow, in an issue full of athletes, I salute the sight of Sir Patrick Moore, a true legend. He's the only person I looked twice at in the entire issue, 89 years old, and still presenting his astronomy show... the infinite wonders of the universe.
 
The shot of Sir Patrick Moore was incredibly. He commanded such presence and you could see why he was so respected.

I loved the Sporting Goods editorial but I didn't like London Pride. The choice of people was all over the place in that one, I mean Pixie Geldof doesn't really go well with the concept and a few other people had me wondering why they were there.
