UK Vogue May 2020 : Rihanna by Steven Klein

The first photo of Rihanna’s ed could have been a beautiful and fresh cover.
It’s not a bad issue but it’s difficult to connect with the UK version of American Vogue.
Because that’s what it’s all about. Uk Vogue by Edward is not infused with a UK spirit...That’s why despite Edward’s efforts, Anna’s Vogue will always be superior (even if people love to hate on US Vogue).

Tbh am over mainstream mags, same faces everywhere! Adut is good but all I see is Adut, Kendall, the Hadids, Kaia and Anyok. Indie magazines are where its at nowadays

That’s what happen when publications tries to recreate the spirit of the « supermodels » era. They were everywhere, everytime, at the same time...

There was a time when it was Naomi and co, then Gisele-Angella-Caroline and co, Natasha-Gemma-Raquel and co. Now, here we are with the Hadid, Adut and Vittoria...

My subscription copy hasn't arrived yet but ended up buying the issue for £2 last Friday and bought the two different covers - completely on impulse and hoarding purposes (because I don't rate either cover whatsoever, to be completely honest).

The issue is dire, can honestly say there isn't a single thing featured that stimulates my interest from Adut's story in Australia to the Bruce Weber-esque story by Sean Thomas. Rihanna's cover feature is an absolute bore, looks more suited to i-D than it does Vogue. The only thing I was excited by was seeing Chanel's new handbag advertising campaign in print for the first time - that's it!

It's a great time to cull the magazine collection. I've no more room in either my heart or my house for issues that are neither beautiful nor interesting.

British Vogue can be a bore, which is one of the worst sins in fashion terms.

The infamous pandemic time. I bet this issue and Gal Gadot's one for American Vogue stuck in the shelves.
