US Vogue May 2008 : Gwyneth Paltrow by Steven Klein

[jssy4eva]

OMG! Maryna, Steven Meisel and Tom Welling?

I'm trying to figure out whether I have passed out because this sounds too AMAZING!!!



Isabeli ed sounds lovely as well!

Oh and it's always nice to see Lisa, Lily and Kasia...This sounds like an excellent issue!

Luxx, I could kiss you right now...instead, I will profile comment you something pretty.

 

[Cosette]

terrible as per usual. my goodness.

 

[kevinnn]

Thanks for the review Luxx! Looking forward to seeing Maryna, Isabeli, and the Raymond Meier edits!

 

[hufnagel]

No Caroline Trentini?

Good! I'm so tired of her...face

 

[chanels]

I forgive the cover after reading Luxx's review!

- Coco as superheroes? Little Mermaid? Ah, Coco's been growing on me lately and this sounds fantastic.
- Isabeli!
- TOM WELLING MARYNA. This sounds lovely already.
- And Click! Fantastic
- No Trentini? Is this the first issue where we haven't seen her?

 

[Luxx]

Its a bird!
Its a plane!
ITS SUPERCOCO!

Oh c'mon you know I had to say that. Even though Coco doesn't play Supergirl.

In this Coco portrays: Poison Ivy, Catwoman, Aurora (X-Men), Dawnstar, The Little Mermaid, Batman and the Silver Surfer.

I found the characters they chose interesting - I wonder what the process was when it came to choosing which characters to do. I would have LOVED to see Coco play Harley Quinn!

I don't like Gwyneth's hair.

 

[kahlilg]

OMG at the catwoman photo! with the rodarte cl's? aw hell no that is too mother****ing perfect!

batman is my favorite superhero. girl did a marvelous job!

I would have LOVED to see Coco play Harley Quinn!

Could you imagine what she would be wearing? I could totally see her in CDG:

yahoo
Also, even though I wasn't pleased with V&R this season, it was totally "gotham-city-esque."

 

[jssy4eva]

WOW, that is fantastic!

 

[cake_batter]

perfect example of a great theme (futurism/robot) gone horribly wrong (gwen's cover)

and although it's not my taste, coco rocha is amazing in her editorial. she's such a great model.

 

[hufnagel]

They could've done the Harley Quinn thing with Miu Miu!

 

[Lena]

horrible cover ruined even more by this rude/cruel airbrushing
why do they have to ruin everything with airbrushing?

at least the 'daring do' editorial posted above by luxx is unusually cool for USVogue

 

[BerlinRocks]

thanks Luxx for the scans....
So the issue is all about SuperHeroes???
(then Mikel raised a good point about this MET exhibition....Though I'm not sure this kind of PopCulture is still interesting.... Guys Pop Art/Figuration Narrative was in the 60s)

I'm not really into SuperHeroes and X-Men or whatever....
But this Coco's editorial shopping is f***ing great!!!! CDG, Rick Owens, the D&G exclusive corset - for the MET....
perfect.....!!!!

eventhough i still hate the Gwyneth's cover the editorials look good.... I told you she had something mermaid.... Then I guess she's supposed to be the Queen of the Oceans who get married with this IronMan (what the hell is this bloody IronMan???) ???


anyway i cannot wait for more, now....

 

[harrietcamilla]

Wow at Coco's ed that is gorgeous! , I can't wait to see Maryna and Tom Welling!
no trentini? i'm suprised and must anna always put raquel in a wig?
Thank you Luxx.

 

[TillyBee]

dislike the cover, but I love the models that are in this issue, and that coco editorial is gorgeous!

 

[ChicParisienne]

Coco's ed is so beautiful!! A great concept that is brilliantly executed, it!!!
The D&G corset, those Louboutins (!!!!!!!), MMM, Gaultier (very Madonna), that Nina Ricci dressheart, and the best of em all: Armani Prive....AMAZING!!Everything about it is so beautiful!!!

And the model lineup surprises me a little: I haven't seen American Vogue being so "adventurous" for a long time. Maryna, Isabeli, Lisa, this is so wonderful!!! I know some people are gonna throw virtual stones at me but I'm disappointed that there's no Caroline inside. Whatever it is I'm buying this solely because of Mademoiselle Coco!!!

Only disappointment: I remembered that Jamie Bell is suppose to have an ed in this issue...why is it missing?

 

[style_expert]

Maryna Lynchuk! finally

the Coco edit is fun, even 'daring' for something as US Vogue

 

[taben]

Maryna I'm so thrilled for her I can't wait to see it, about damn time Anna noticed her!!!

The rest of the line-up is refreshing compared to your typical Vogue US cast, I'm especially pleased to see Isabeli and Kasia!!

And Coco's ed is great

 

[vogue28]

I seriously do not like this cover. at all. Her face expression is so akward, and that dress
I dont think I have liked a single vogue us cover this year.

I absolutly love coco's ed.

 

[eternitygoddess]

The ed is FANTASTIC.
