US Vogue December 2009 : Cate Blanchett by Annie Leibovitz

[clo]

Dying to see Daria's and Chanel's ed

Me too! I'll have a fit if I don't see them today! I'm serious! My health is in great hazard if I don't see these eds!

 

[MON]

^=))! Me too! Weren't their eds posted earlier/days ago? Where are they? Can't wait!

 

[Fiercification]

The mag will probably be out next week...so everyone will just have to be patient I guess

 

[eword]

is there no hope of a reposting in low quality?

 

[cottonmouth13]

Is the name of Lily and Gaga's ed. "Hansel & Gretel"? As in?

 

[cold_sun]

so theres no karlie in this issue ?

I don't see why people are complaining about Leibovitz's fashion eds...IMHO she's probably the only photographer who can do them as well as she does. Can you imagine Testino or I&V shooting this ? There's always an intimacy and chronology to these types of work...the pictures jump out at you so that (non-fashion interested) people who are just flicking through are pulled in and captivated by the clear narrative. The whole way that celebrities, designers and artists are cast next to the ideal focal point of the piece, the model could be a recipe for disaster if the team were different, as the model would get pushed to the background or vice-versa, but Annie has a way of making the chemistry very natural and realistic...the casting in this ed is completely spot-on. If Meisel were to shoot this I'm sure the model & clothes would look amazing but the other elements such as additional actors and locations would be more minimal making it less of a 'story' per se.

Well anyway I really like this story, it's not as good as some of the past ones but I'm just trying to outline what is appealing about her stories, since seeing her exhibition I have really come to appreciate all her work (even though her covers for this magazine are too frequently overdone PhotoShop messes)

Sorry I hope you get what I'm trying to say

to be honest i would be quite a fan if Steven Klein was allowed to shoot this in his signature cold-blooded villain aesthetics. now that would be an edit to worship.

so theres no karlie in this issue ?

Omg I just realized that.

 

[tarsha]

Thanks god there's not Karlie again after all-her issue.

 

[Kanna]

^ I'm happy for that!

 

[cottonmouth13]

There should have been more GaGa in the "Hansel & Grete" editorial IMO.

Can't wait to see Daria's editorial! As well as Coco/Sasha/Chanel's.

 

[fantaisland]

The only editorial I'm waiting now is the Chanel/Sasha/Coco ones.
I the Lily & Gaga ed- it's very Annie Leibovitz- but I don't mind.

 

[Franzy]

Repost. Sorry!

 

[FRANCY ITALY]

^ that was posted on the first page of the thread

 

[Franzy]

Ooops! Sorry! I didn't see that.

I'm really excited for Daria's ed.

 

[clo]

Thanks god there's not Karlie again after all-her issue.

It is, indeed, a blessing not having to stand Karlie after the past months' overdose.

 

[Filipe]

No Karlie in this issue ?
Gaga needs to get the hell out, I've seen enough of her !

I'd like to see the review of this, but it seems there's 2 more edits with Sasha and Chanel ...

I like the cover, simple and pretty.

 

[FRANCY ITALY]

and there is also an editorial with Isabeli by Terry Richardson..

 

[LabelWhore4]

Does anyone know who shot Chanel and Sasha?

 

[cold_sun]

^def not Meisel, Id assume Testino or Leibovitz ?!
