Vogue España November 2021 : Nyarach Abouch Ayuel by Rasharn Agyemang

another reprint for November. will we see reprints on VI and VP someday?
 
Despite the reprint, I'm rather fond of the outcome. Now had Nyarach been looking directly down Agyemang's lens and perhaps striking a more elegant pose, I would've sang the cover's praises louder but it's... fine. The colours are beautiful and the Balenciaga certainly photographs well. Not mad at this.
 
Would this be considered a reprint? To me that term implies after-the-fact. British Vogue always releases their issues quickly, but this photo is basically just “global” Vogue content for November and belongs to American Vogue and Spanish Vogue as much as it does to British Vogue.


Anyway it’s absolutely stunning and I’m certain I’ll be voting for it in Aracic’s November poll.
 
It's a great picture, but it makes me sad knowing that it's a reprint. Never expected from Vogue España after a long history of OG covers.
 
Love it but wish we still lived in the era of original content

I guess in that sense it’s indeed not a reprint. But after seeing it in two other issues this feels like an afterthought.

I understand that, because this edition releases a bit later than the others, it could feel like this is leftovers, but I don’t think that’s being fair to Spanish Vogue. I guess my point is that this shoot likely was created with the idea that it would be shared content, and not just that, but it may have always been the plan that images would be cover material, too. Covers are planned months in advance, so to me this doesn’t seem like an afterthought. If this cover happened to have leaked only a week ago, no one would be calling it a reprint. Rasharn hasn’t done much work for Vogue previously (I think only Italian Vogue?) so this shoot doesn’t feel emblematic of any specific edition, and thus doesn’t feel “borrowed” by another, to me. Now if an image from this shoot shows up on a December or January cover, I’d feel differently, *that* would feel like a reprint.
 
I saw the US and British edits with this editorial, slightly different but still...they can put just a little more effort....have more final options so each edition have their own version...it's more complex but it's a good team so they can pull it off....

Now with the contents reduced at VS their competitors have a chance to step it up. I think in sales Elle Spain is number one right? it was before the pandemic...

Yeah, that makes sense, it’s basically the same thing when every September cover of Bazaar used to have a shot from the Carine ‘Icons’ editorial as a cover.

I guess we all just have to get used to this shared global content thing Vogue is doing now.
 
Now that everything is online, the reader gains nothing from the same content appearing in numerous magazines. Because people have the ability to access things digitally, if they're interested in Vogue, they're not confined to only reading the editions printed for their region.

So it might save Conde Nast some money to not commission the same amount of content, but it's a massive step backwards in terms of having an array of titles which can individually hold the interest of readers in a sustained way.

I'm always loving a red-on-red cover, but I'm not sure the ever-increasing prices of import print magazines would warrant the purchase, if I'm going to see a lot of the same material.
