The thought of Charlize Theron covering an issue of Vogue kept me going for a few months, but I'm disappointed with the outcome. I also dislike the use of the Dior dress which is far too dark for a summer cover. A white dress would of brought a certain freshness. Theron was wearing a white or cream dress in the candids from the shoot and she looked amazing. Don't get me wrong, she looks fantastic here, but I was wanting so much more. I hope Testino's cover story shows signs of promise.
How brilliant to see Steven Meisel photograph for US Vogue, once again! Even if it is only the one photo. It doesn't even matter because Meisel's one photo is stronger than Lindbergh's entire story with Caroline. Quality over quantity, I guess.
It amazes me how Anna scrapped Daria Werbowy's venice shoot by Mert & Marcus, but keeps Cara's shoot with a bear. The whole story looks pointless - no words other than that to describe it. Sometimes I understand Cara's appeal and then I just think she's a phase and will soon fade out. Testino's pictures don't exactly do her justice here.
