US Harper's Bazaar April 2008 : Demi Moore by Peter Lindbergh

[flyingace]

I'm not too impressed by any of the eds this time. Camilla's one is better but it has been seen so many times that I'm already getting tired of it.

i love love all the eds, especially the one Karl shot. can't wait to receive this.

 

[mikel]

great eds! Love them all.

 

[Fabulyss]

Wow HB has vastly improved. It still isn't my cup of tea but the eds are such better quality. They must have gotten a higher budget.

Can't wait to get this issue in the mail Hate the cover (and it's subject) but I LOVE the editorials!

I've slightly gone off Glenda's Bazaar the past few months, something made worse last night when I was going through issues from the time of Kate Betts - which I didn't rate too highly at the time, still being awed by the Tilberis era.

Yet there was so much there I didn't see - a commitment to featuring all sorts of ethnicities, like when Caroline Ribeiro got a cover. Also, the amount of articles profiling women in influential positions, they were supportive, realistic and inspirational. For the first time, I wondered what kind of Bazaar we'd have ended up with today, if she'd been allowed to continue.

Funnily enough, I also found, in one even older issue from the late 90's, an editorial with Aurelie Claudel just like the safari one in this issue, right down to cuddling up with the cheetah (except the older edit is much better, there's more of an atmospheric sense of the African landscape). Safari is an eternal theme, but seeing that was like a real 'then and now' moment.

I really wish Liz Tilberis was still the editor.Looking at the 140th issue with Jennifer Aniston on the cover and seeing what Liz Tilberis's work looked like then,it's a shame she was replaced.Glenda bores me aside from the fact that good photographers are involved with Harpers and the model choices are pretty diverse.

liz wasn't replaced, she passed away (cancer)...
kate betts was named her successor, then when kate was let go, glenda was brought in....

tigerrouge...i love the kate betts-era bazaar...
i think the design was ahead of its time, and the eds were bolder and more interesting...
i think there was no way she could top liz so she went in a completely different direction as was slammed for it...

i just got this issue, and i'm a bit disappointed...
the demi ed is so blah (especially after the v ed a few months ago) and the rest of the eds are simply stale...
and another feature on frida giannini? please!!
doutzen's ed is the most interesting imo...

 

[porcelaindream]

That family portrait is great.. They all look like their mother..

I finally got my issue in the mail yesterday and once again, it came all torn apart! At least the content was good. Loved Doutzen's ed the most, and Behati's ed was also a favorite.

 

[kasper!]

nicola formichetti..

is it his first ed in bazaar?..he works for mainstream magazine now?

I think this issue is fantastic. It's much more upscale than the declining trend they were shoveling to shelves last year. Fantastic choice of photographers in particular, bravo!

 

[Suburban Snob]

Blah. Why do they put her on covers?!
