Vogue Czechoslovakia December 2020

No

 

I kind of enjoy the first one. The second one is a useless gimmick, but Malgosia one is okay. Although she does not seem right for this kind of concept. I certainly can imagine someone like Milla Jovovich for this with her Resident Evil background.

 

The first cover doesn’t sit well with me. Call me “woke”, but I don’t find comfort in these types of covers. Why the need to put that in her face? It doesn’t even make sense with the “Follow your heart” tagline.

 

It reminds of something David Sims did for Vogue Paris.

 

"I asked for clean, athletic, smiling. She sent me dirty, tired and paunchy."

 

Malgosia´s cover would have been perfect if it wasn´t for the dirt on the face but since this is an homage to Lata Brandisová, I wonder if there´s a famous picture of her with dirt?

 

I googled Lata Brandisova, apparently she was an equestrian. Malgosia, however, looks like a biker or an aviator here.

Another miss from Vogue CS.

 

So now that I read more about Lata, I gotta say that I love the cover and what represents imo, a countess who was supposed to be prim and proper, beating nazis offices in a really tough horse race. From wiki: "(She) was a Czech equestrian and the only woman to win the Great Pardubice Steeplechase. Her victory over the Nazi officers at the 1937 race, seen as a symbol of Czech resistance against Nazi Germany"

 

Always here for Malgosia! She can sell me anything, but not this dirt on the face thing. The cover would've worked perfectly without it!

 

Love Malgosia but shes looking less like Lata and more like an SS officer that just came off the front here.

 

always loved Malgosia but what’s with the dirty face??? huge miss from Vogue CS for what could’ve been a great cover!

 

Wow, don't the Czech celebrate Christmas? Coming from the festive filled Cover challenge thread, these ones are almost in stark contrast. So dark and depressing. Both covers are terrible.

 

The black and whites are well shot but the concept is just odd

 

i don't mind dirty unless it ugly. this is all beyond that.

 

Limited edition cover:

 

burn it.

 

I wish her face was clean. But I love to see Amber, Liya and Malgosia scoring Vogue covers in this new horrible decade.

 

Thanks god, it is limited. The Photofiltre cover I can't

 

well, the word limited gets a whole new meaning with this "artwork".
