Absolutely gorgeous!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏


Jenna’s cover is the weakest though imo it’s giving Kill Bill lol

I love it all (but Jenna’s). Adut ATE with that cover

 

[Cocteau Stone]

I’m really liking Lufré’s work here. So rich, and high octane. Hair is very Ara Gallant in some of the shots too. Although Ashley Graham is bit of an outlier. Whoever directed her facial expression should have done better (or she should have done better).

Jenna… no. I’m biased though as I don’t fully understand her appeal. There’s something about her I find so monotone.

those male covers are a joke

 

[Cocteau Stone]

The male shots should have been kept as editorial filler, not as covers. Alton is kind of doing the most, but not in a good way.

 

[Squizree]

I quite like Alton's cover and editorial. Very Lenny Kravitz. I feel like @Salvatore would enjoy this issue.

she really did! I hope she'd come back full force this year

 

[Deneuve]

tacky and itchy

 

[Royal-Galliano]

whoever this lufré is, the photography is abysmal. it looks like they were struggling with the lighting and decided to fry it all in postproduction: the skin tones are completely off (poor adut!), the blurs/airbrushing look super cheap and there is barely any contrast between the models and background. the whole thing looks like from another era – 2009 perhaps?

 

[jeje10]

Poor Jenna, she was swallowed up by these models and actresses (Marina Ruy Barbosa is an actress in Brazil). I like V covers with men, but they're always the same.

 

[Abby Zacky]

oH ADUT!!!
