Vanity Fair as we knew it is long gone, so maybe this is the best we’re going to get at this point. It’s certainly colourful, the covers will stand out, and there’s a range of people being featured on the front, all getting their own moment.
I think it all looks very superficial and plastic, but that probably sums up the entertainment industry. Graydon’s covers were probably giving everything and everyone more gravitas than was deserved; these covers might be more fitting.
