US Elle July 2018 : Nicki Minaj by Karl Lagerfeld

Great cover...

 

[Wintergreen]

Very retro cover, I love it.

I'm aware of the world we are living in, but really? And it's not just Minaj, but it's her and Karl and everything about it.

Can't think of a worst combination. That pic of Minaj and Karl is probably the epitome of everything i find aesthetically repulsive in fashion.

I hear you, felt exactly the same but at some stage I had to capitulate! They're just so omnipresent that one can't deny them.

Keen to see the edits.......

I honestly expected worse lol

Stunning cover reminds me of 90s Benetton. The ed is a mess

I love the cover, but that editorial is nonsensical

 

[samoanceleb]

Absolutely loving this cover. It has a striking 80s feel (think Gilles Bensimon circa 1987-8, or even 1993) but is not nostalgic and is instead incredibly modern and understated.

It has cut through and resists the 1980s take that verge on the uninspired and pretentious (Vogue Ukraine & Portugal) or the full on, vampy, glamour we see at Vogue Paris.

love the picture but the cover lines are giving me real cringes!!

Why is Kaiser Karl shooting with this trash bag?

Nicki looks like a goddess on that cover.
The ed is problematic and awful on multiple levels.

 

[Benn98]

I thought once Nina took over she'd put an end to the multiple subscriber covers. It's really quite unnecessary. Taylor should've been saved for another month. I suppose all the other models on that cover will get their own as well.

 

[[Piece Of Me]]

Such a striking cover, this will definitely get your attention on the newsstands. The editorial however is a lil bit disappointing when you compare it to the cover.

The booking person at Elle seems obsessed with VS models, it's nauseating. At least they've fished out the better ones this time and not the likes of Elsa Hosk and Jasmine Tookes. Amanda Murphy have evolved so much in her modelling, so I'm keen to see what they've done with her.

So Taylor didn't get an edit??? Very odd.

 

[Phuel]

The heavy, amateur retouching of the cover is atrocious. It's not even retouching actually-- just used the Blur tool... How is this monstrosity sighed off???? Is everyone at ELLE suffering from cataracts??????

And the shots of the two of them look like mourners at a funeral. Odd mood.
