UK Vogue October 2017 : Zoe Kravitz by Alasdair McLellan

Although both cover choices for this issue were bad to begin with, I wish they picked the other cover. It looked more grown up. She looks like a schoolgirl in this cover :\
 
The first filler cover...
Very happy for Zoe, but what a horrible cover choice. There has to be better cover pics in the ed, here she looks bored out of her mind and a little dirty with the horrible hair.

But these were still shot under Alexandra right? So basically, this cover and issue is still under her, but signed off by Emily? Which is strange actually. She just wanted her last technical issue to be September but in reality, it goes as far as November.
 
I bought a copy of this today, it comes sealed in a bag with an A5-sized 'Secret Address Book' supplement. It was on special offer at £2, and at 310 pages, feels of some substance. Lots of perfume samples inside, which is what starts happening in the run-up to Christmas.

Going back-to-front through the issue, I see there's an interview with Susie Bick (and Nick Cave), and a music portfolio of London musicians that's very 'street'. The Kaia Gerber edit isn't bad; if these were the first photos of her ever presented to me, I'd really be into the idea of Cindy the Second, but having seen so much of her already, all I can see is their attempts to use her hair to disguise the way her eyes are too close together.

Guinevere on the beach is a bit conceptual and occasionally involves gritty shots of breasts (sometimes literally), and Zoe's rather bland feature is only saved by her sheer beauty.

For £2, I'm certainly happy with it, but I wouldn't have been inspired by the contents to pay £4 for it.
 
^^^ Kaia's close-set eyes are all I’m going to notice from now on.

Is Zoe's uneven, sickly, even bruised-looking complexion that’s seen here showing up in the physical edition?
 
Most of the shots are in b/w, which improves anyone's complexion. I think it's the tattoos - instead of making a bold statement, they're very small and indistinct, and that primes the eye to see other 'imperfections' on the canvas of her skin.
 
£2 everywhere I've seen it also. This magazine hasn't been full price in these parts for years.
 
It's full price everywhere I've seen it in London, but I wouldn't buy it for £2 either to be honest.
 
Zoe is absolutely gorgeous and seems like a fresh choice for Vogue UK, just a shame the end result is rather disappointing.

I like Kaia... i think she's beautiful and will only get better as she grows up but she's still a child and looks like one. I wish they'd give it a few more years before trying to turn her into a model. Also, her poses look like model test shots taken at Sears.

Ah! "Line in the Sand" is just gorgeous. The shot of Guinevere in the black Balenciaga gown is breathtaking.
 
Lucinda really wanted us to miss her right? I never liked her work yet I'm so moved by "Line in the Sand". Such a strong, beautiful edit, I'm in awe. The Rick Owens shot is flawless.
