great gowns, beautiful gowns.

She looks like Jessica Tandy on that cover.
It all looks so lazy.

hahaha I am completely shocked by this thread.

I saw this cover on Insta a few days ago and it took my breath away. Something so electric and vibrant and different! I hadn't had a chance to come to the thread, but I was absolutely anticipating nothing by over-the-top praise. And instead it's the complete and utter opposite!! haha. I don't know what to make of the comments in here. I guess I just had a 180 degree different reaction to all of you. Hilarious!

It seems there's another cover, presumably the UK one! Prince Charles by Alexi Lubomirski. She got this kind of access and made him share a cover with a starlet? I doubt the palace will be very impressed. But besides that, how clueless.

I never thought I'd say this, but I would absolutely welcome that shot of Prince Charles on my subscription cover, over the other one.

Wait. They got a Prince of Wales exclusive and he has to share a multi-cover with Natalie. Come on! Clueless.

 

[HeatherAnne]

Even Natalie Portman fans can admit this cover shot is boring as hell right?
Charles put her to shame.

Either Dior or Natalie's studio must've come through with a cheque, that's the only explanation. Otherwise I doubt even Anna would greenlight this ridic idea.

Plus I'm also surprised to see Leibovitz in absentia when she's VF's royal photographer. Too expensive? Despite Alexi being palace-approved, I doubt he was always their first choice.

??? Prince Charles’ GQ cover this year also shared with many other including Philipp Plein lol.

There’s a third cover, Charles and Camilla together.

My mind is blown how Radhika decided that a Natalie cover is wiser than a cover with Prince Charles. That cover is a manifestation of power and access.

Natalie’s PR and backers must have been very persuasive.
