Vogue China August 2020 : Natalia Vodianova by Estelle Hanania

[Benn98]

So Daniela Paudice had no part in last month's winning cover and edit, and now she's responsible for this. That's telling.
But I'm with Blayne, the entire team got it wrong here. You have glossy faces, nude lips on Asian women , messy hair, and subpar 'photography' which could easily pass as behind the scene candids.

Nothing looks appealing. That’s actually quite an accomplishment.

 

[nastassia]

Wow, that's... shocking, to say the least. It looks like they went into the house's basement, put a lamp on the floor and just snapped pictures without checking their white balance.

 

[nastassia]

And Natalia's picture with the hair piece is blurry! And not in a Sarah Moon or Roversi intentional artsy blurry style, just plain blurry as if they couldn't get it sharp!!

 

[aracic]

No words. Just.... no words.

I have tried to retouch the photo of Natalia.

Looks like the fittings for an awful fashion show of Dior rip-offs...what a disgrace! Dior should sue...

This is such a humiliation to both Vogue China and Dior....
how do I unsee this... Ugh!!!

Indeed, but I doubt they would. Because I'm 99.9% sure Mary and/or her team had a hand in the casting, what with how important this shoot is to set a tone for the exhibition. That, and the fact that this photographer is a frequent Dior collaborator.

 

[BSE]

The photographer shot some editorials for Vogue China before, they are not bad. However, she failed in this one, her first big cover.

 

[PierreGotha]

It seems rushed and the art direction is morbidly bland; slapping them in a white backdrop and bamboozle them with split lighting.

 

[RedSmokeRise]

You guys are dragging this mess and I am living for it

the collection looks appalling. Where do they get those Dior collections? Aliexpress?

Dior is going to have a major exhibition in Shanghai.

It is not technically a collection, these are archive pieces, including the famous Bar suit that launched Dior to fame after WWII.

 

[fluxxx]

Lol I was being sarcastic. The fit is so bad and they dont even bother to photoshop it. It looks like a knock off Dior lol

 

[AFWQ]

The cover is good but editorial... it went really bad.

The shoot happened in Paris where the archives are maintained, so they probably only need a van lol.
