he looks like he's roleplaying as robert redford. The photos are good, but i'm not really loving the overall look they went for brad

 

[bilQuis]

Robert Redford looks super young here! Oh wait-

 

[Marc10]

Yeah the Redford reference is clear. Honestly this is the best i've seen him since... I can remember. Thank god he dropped that horrible long hair-beard look.

 

[VogueGirl8910]

Amazing cover story, Brad looks great. In fact he's the younger version of Robert Redford.

 

[jemina]

He really looks like young Redford. I never noticed it before.

 

[Kanna]

Both covers and the accompanying ed are all great. Really love it when I&V shoot portraits, especially in B&W.

 

[TeeVanity]

I really like this a lot and the Redford channeling.

Inez and Vinoodh's photography continues to be consistently appealing, but Pitt is a pale imitation of Redford in his prime.

 

[TREVOFASHIONISTO]

references aside, Brad looks damn good.

 

[MON]

Inez & Vinoodh, you've done it again! Stunning portraits! I love the setting play as well.

Brad looks so hot my goodness.

 

[LastNight]

Oh yes! This is great. Inez and Vinoodh are just sensational, they take the best portraits. This feels like old school V Magazine to me, I love the use of red on the cover - it's simple but effective. Great cover and story.

Am I the only one who doesn't like this?
The boyish haircut and all that retouching on a 50+ guy looks silly.
I'd rather see him aged and natural.

 

[kokobombon]

Is this Brad 20 years ago doing a Redford impersonation?
At least it's not a musician or an IG model...

 

[tigerrouge]

I've seen him do his Redford impersonation a few too many times through the years to be super-impressed by this.

No you're not, I loathe it. Where's his neck on the first cover? Sorry, but there's nothing 'new' about these shots. We've seen him like this for ages. And then you get Hedi's feature with Ruth Bell and her incessant 'grumpy child' face which also feels very deja vu. Sad to think we've not had a model cover in quite some time (the Hadid sisters dont count).

 

[Nomar]

These are both nice covers.

 

[mepps]

Love the second cover. The editorial portraits great outside. The studio shots are way to photoshopped. The Redford homage is clear, but meh.

Ruth Bell annoys me.
