V Magazine #150 Fall 2024 : Gigi Hadid by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin

The surreal fashion editorial by Nick Knight is a masterpiece. It is dreamy, unique, and special.

Not a fan of the cover but the Nick Knight and Sundsbø shoots are fabulous! There are a couple of shots in the latter that look like they could be Vogue Italia cover shots from back in the day. It’s a pleasure to see some truly great editorials.
 
I am surprised how much people like Nick Knight's ed. Didn't he just put them through AI? I am not going to support that nor think that magazines should.
100% right and agreed. While I love Nick Knight's previous eds, this is a big 'no' for me.
 
the specter of AI's inevitable infiltration of the fashion industry is sickening to think about. If you think designers now are lazy and hackish, just imagine once the suits get smart that they can save money by firing all the CDs and simply get AI to generate hundreds of designs with the click of a button. I'm sure some have already begun coming up with fashion sketches this way without the public's knowledge.

I admire Knight but setting this precedent of allowing AI to pass as art in a fashion magazine is really not it
 
Nick has been experimenting with technology in his photography for decades now. Countless editorials of his feature extensive photo manipulation through a variety of methods, and he’s always embraced surrealism.

This shoot is very much in line with his previous work and his history of using technology and digital techniques to create images beyond the standard photograph. If it makes sense for anyone to utilise AI in their work it’s Nick.
 
There is an editorial with Tyla in this issue, and she is wearing a wide pant in it; I need to know who those pants are by. It's SO good. I need someone here in TFS to identify the designer when those images are added to the thread.

Love the covers of Gigi, she's looking re-energized and gorgeous.
 

Gigi's a lost cause tbh. She's awful in editorials as if she detests the job. Didn't she say she'd let newbies take covers since she had accomplished everything? Well now's the chance Gigi!
I can't believe this woman has 50 Vogue covers by the end of 2030 she'll have over 60 and surpass Natasha and Sasha.Ughh
 
Gigi’s agent must have something over everyone in this industry.

Not being funny but I saw a candid pic of her on the weekend and I was shocked. The amount of time and money they spend retouching her face on every shoot at this point is just such a waste when she’s talentless

I used to remember how they'd compare Gigi to the wide eyed doll era models at first.
Also yes! She looks like an artificial doll on campaigns when she's so bloated on the runways. Once your face is retouched beyond recognition it's time to let go Gigi!
