US Vogue August 2009 : Christy Turlington by Steven Klein

I think I have an idea why but it's kind of gossipy so I'll restrain myself.

^please spill it.

Boring as usual and inundated with trashy text as usual.

Besides, the whole idea of "The Age Issue" is the antithesis to high-fashion and its artistry. These age issues are [predictably] about beautiful women who can afford to be Vogue-beautiful via their yoga instructors, private organic chefs, dermatologists, etc. Why should we care / celebrate them?

To me these issues are mundane, predicatable and redundant; and only serve to reiterate how farcical US Vogue has become!

i adore christy but this cover doesn't do her any justice. i prefer her looking more relaxed. the shot beside it is beautiful though.. she is so elegant

 

[iriswills]

So strange. I was not expecting this lukewarm reaction to the cover. I know the cover is not stellar, but I don't know. There is something so wonderful about seeing Christy on the cover now. It's a welcome break from all the mass market celebrity hype and high end Lara-loving madness. This is the issue I want to take with me on summer vacation.

Ivanovic? Sharapova must have been busy.

 

[HeatherZ]

always too much ps on vogue us cover, it looks so fake.

 

[fiqary]

The cover looks dated. Someone need to fire Anna.

 

[Miss Dalloway]

Ivanovic? Sharapova must have been busy.

Oh Snap, i dont think Sharapova has been busy, more like: been there done that, oh and yeah um she sucks at the moment.

 

[SuJu10]

ugh this is such a fugly cover.

Ivanovic? Sharapova must have been busy.

that's cold

 

[Fabulyss]

A black sweater and khakis? A khaki jacket and jeans? My God, why is US Vogue so DULL!

 

[GlamorousBoy]

wow, the cover is beautiful... so natural, fresh... I love it!

 

[abul]

i don't know why but i thought of this when i saw the cover

fashion-iconography.net

 

[Handbag Queen]

For some reason, I thought of the one with Rachel Weisz last year on the porch steps.

 

[JordanB]

whatever, all Vogue covers are slight variations of each other anyways, lol

 

[Mchunu]

^pretty much.

 

[Northern Star]

Oh bollocks.......where the hell have I been
I didn't even see this thread and didn't know the gorgeous Christy was on the cover
Not the greatest cover by any standard but I never tire of this lovely lady and she totally deserves every cover she gets IMO.

 

[shotguntolove]

happy that christy is on the cover but...they could have done so much more
the text is killing me, it's hideous

 

[ForChicSake]

The cover looks dated. Someone need to fire Anna.

i agree, she bores the crap out of me and it is showing in her magazine; vogue us needs a total shake-up from the inside and out

 

[Miss Dalloway]

^^You know comments like this really make me wonder if you people even buy US Vogue? Or is it just based on what you see here in the threads?

I mean if this year US Vogue didn't get a "shake up", then it never will.
