US Vogue September 2023 : Linda, Cindy, Christy & Naomi by Rafael Pavarotti

[CholoChic]

It is like the revenge of black models because only Naomi looks spectacular,
the other fabulous models of course are georgeous but I think it is the photographer and those rare expressions
and bad gestures what makes a bad editorial...
of course it makes me think that they were super models, amazing for our eyes because behind the espectacular images, they were the best photographers. It looks with a lot of production without the touch of an artist.

I saw the digital mag, at least the ads are interesting

 

[JPineapple]

Maybe the contents are not the best, the issue is better and more cohesive than Vogue UK.

 

[Rigida]

This issue is very dress heavy. But on the first glimpse, this issue is better than last year’s bleak september offering. And of course, better flow than Vogue Uk

Far from perfect September issue, but still 10 times better than this Edward's MESS!

 

[Zorka]

Does anybody have a better version of this image?



Picture by me

You're (more than) welcome and THANKS for (not) sharing the review with us!

 

[Ivancica]

Thank you @Zorka

I agree it's better than the UK edition.
I like Michaela Coel's shoot.

 

[Zorka]

Btw, Devon Aoki's mini me is giving a serious run for their money to some of nowadays most prominent (read: the highest paid) models! Gosh, she is such an adorable little creature!!!

 

[RaisinBoy]

Are these editorials for real?!? ouch

 

[RaisinBoy]

Also,
Anna Wintour has GOT TO go!!!
Cmon man!!!!

 

[A.D.C.]

There's so much going on and none of it is any good. Would it kill them to add a single-girl studio edit to allow the issue to breath?! The Michaela shoot is the only Vogue worthy thing in the issue even if it's been done a million times before. If I were to ever get a "Vogue moment" this is what I would want.

 

[avonlea002]

The photo of Daniel and Michaela looks like a composite. There is also something strange with the edge of her dress in both photos, it's weirdly blurred. Annie's handling of PS has been so off that I am not sure whether it's a mistake or another failed attempt at making her work "painterly" lol.

 

[FashionFanatico]

what a sad, has-been, pathetic issue.

i am just here for the queen Michaela Coel (even Annie overrdid it with PS)
and handsome Daniel.....

 

[Bertrando3]

Are these editorials for real?!? ouch

They look indeed VERY BAD. Can't believe these are in Vogue and let along US Vogue + in the september issue no less.
CrAZY.

It feels like a last hurrah and rightfully so. Tired of it.

I really don’t care to reminisce these hags, it was a great era, they served looks, gave face, yet it all happened 30 years ago and we shouldn’t be stuck there.

This whole shoot feels like a Victorias Secret show where they’re all buddies and sticking together. #girlpower
