Vogue France August 2022 : Ugbad Abdi & Mona Tougaard by Luis Alberto Rodriguez

[Scotty]

More like couture supplement of VI. While this cover is 'cute', the inside will be riddled with filler trash and reprints from UK/US Vogue so what is the point?

Vogue Greece will continue doing the Vogue Paris aesthetic so this magazine is not needed at all.

 

[penny609]

They both look extremely lovely here and the photography isn't bad at all.

But, wait a second, this is french Vogue, this is the new version of what used to be Vogue Paris and we're getting something as quiet, tame and politically correct as this instead of extravaganza, luxury and everything we desperately need to dream a little bit.

Then. There will be a good dose of reprints inside, then the best story will also be the shortest, then the remaining pages will be total crap. Well, this is not my cup of tea, despite this cover being one of their finest to date (and the level wasn't exactly high).

The washed out greenish or whatever that color is background really ruins this otherwise good cover for me. Yeah, kinda sad these days that we know there's going to be maybe a few decent main editorial shots and the rest is reprinted content..

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

hahaha totally!

 

[mepps]

I feel like this might look better on the stands, where the muted colors can pop a bit.
In any case they are STUNNINGLY beautiful, and deserved all the luxe decadence, "Vogue Paris" could throw at them.
Still, this is a lovely "Vogue France" cover, but ultimately, it will be forgotten in two weeks.

 

[WAVES]

it’s a beautiful cover, not sure about the full white body suit.

 

[Horizontina]

A cover that bleeds class and manages to be understated and in bloom at the same time. There is a case to be made for that.

 

[Mr Yayo]

it’s a beautiful cover, not sure about the full white body suit.

I think they’re trying to give the nude illusion but seeing ugbad is a hijabi model they have to throw something on her to cover her up but still makes her look ‘nude’ if you know what I mean

 

[Toni Ahlgren]

I really don't like the "can I go home already?" face Mona seems to have on all the time. She doesn't look expensive, just dismissive. Would love to see even a little smize.

 

[Xone]

As a picture is ok....as a cover there is something missing....where is the fashion btw?....
this should be rebranded as Vogue Clueless and leave France out of the name....

 

[vogue28]

It’s not a reprint, there’s no mention of the now much-hated word “collaboration” attached to the release of the cover but I am nonetheless… underwhelmed. The composition is awful, Ugbad and Mona both appear over it and there’s zero fashion happening.

Again, I sit here finding it painful to digest this questionable cover of a magazine that once used to enthral me to no end. A magazine that once used to make me travel into town to pick up a copy and bring it back home in a cardboard folder I’d take with me, to ensure I got it back home OK.

and bring it back home in a cardboard folder I’d take with me, to ensure I got it back home OK.

Why have I never thought of this????

 

[tigerrouge]

We anticipate that most of the content will be reprinted, and that causes us to expect a lot from the cover shot, because it likely represents the most original content in the issue, but not many editorials these days can carry an entire issue.

 

[aracic]

Why have I never thought of this????

I'm just sat here stunned thinking the exact same thing. All those British Vogue covers by Meisel I'd carefully carry, doing my best not to get sweaty palms or damage the edges with my clothes and not once did it occur to me to get a cardboard folder. You're a visionary, @vogue28!
