[Hchloe]

Beautiful cover! I’m sure this will ruffle some feathers in France….

 

[charles01]

[oaklee91]

Lovely!

 

[mikel]

Not bad.

What a lovely cover! Simplicity at its best!

 

[blueorchid]

It feels like a Joan Juliet Buck era cover.

 

[Paul Lintag]

Fantastic! Their best cover this year.

 

[SLFC]

Pretty decent. Maybe they have finally found their footing?

Oh Paris, how I miss you...

While it is indeed a stunning image, there is absolutely nothing about it that resembles the identity of Vogue Paris. I don't care that it's Vogue France now, you don't erase 100 years worth of legacy like that. But I am still looking forward to the complete story, it looks promising.

Ugbad bears a striking resemblance to young Iman here, it's the first thing that caught my eye. Stunning.

I miss the excess and luxury from Vogue Paris. Vogue France is safe and imo, lost the French touch. There's nothing French about it. It reduced itself to a mere run-of-the-mill Vogue edition.

While this is decent, its just okay. You had Ugbad and Mona and this is what you end up with. This is 1990s Vanity Fair at best.

(How Harper's Bazaar treats their archives is shameful.. but that's neither here nor there and I'm getting riled up about Bazaar in a Vogue thread. Anyway... )

It's a decent cover, but how miss the luxury & glamour on Vogue France.

 

[Kerg]

so politically correct, so boring, so Edward, no personality, no sexy, no glamour... Edward / Emilie you're clearly not made for what should be vogue france...

 

[Bertrando3]

It doesn't look like Vogue. Where's the panache of French fashion ??? Where's the glamour and sex appeal and strong poses and cool styling ??? This looks like a yoga ad, not the french cover of the most powerful magazine in Fashion. A big NO to this.

 

[caioherrero]

This is not France. This is boring like Euginie and Edward

When I saw both their names I expected some glamour and high fashion. Its a nice shot but too simple like a gym flyer photo

I don't know, usually gym flyers have more energy. This reminds me more of a crisis-counselling centre flyer.
