This is UK Vogue doing their thing, giving us models - looking good but not great - in editorials that can be eccentric but not edgy, and it's all very nice, but sometimes not very exciting.
But this is the niche that UK Vogue occupies in the magazine world, so for me, to be disappointed in the magazine for being itself is to fail to appreciate what it does well.
That said, I let my subscription lapse and the April and May issues give me no real reason to resume it.... I always say, "nice isn't enough".
