Vogue Hong Kong March 2021 : Kate Moss by Luigi & Iango

I love it. Luigi & Iango delivered as usual. I will gladly take their cgi fembot style over the ugly and mediocre work most photographer churn out nowadays so social media crowd can relate to it. We all know Kate doesn't look like that but so what? My only complaint would be the styling. I am sick of seeing Prada collection everywhere.
 
If you're only using Kate because she's Kate, and you have to photo shop her so she looks the way she did 30 years ago, you need to give up.
This is gross. And Wintour needs to screw off with these dumb global themes. Ironically they inhibit creativity.
 
This duo's post-production skills are extremely superior. Kate may look like it's 1999 here—but at least she does look good, and not like a wax figure that’s often the result of poor retouching skills that plague so many publications.

It’s just a shame she’s wearing that stupid Prada mess, accompanied by a weak layout: It’s like the art direction is trolling with the drop-shadow, gradient and tiny, light typeface.
 
"overly photoshopped" You know I dont think you people know what you are talking about.
 
Same old same old we like it okay but I'm tired of having the this formula every time I see Kate on a cover like seriously imagine going out to get your fav monthly magazines and you pick this Vogue issue .. but also her I-D cover...

It must work I know but please guys explore something NEW ( and no that nose ring is everything you want but not creative)
At this point I'm pretty sure she would have declined this cover if Dr Luigi & Iango were not behind the lens
 
Regardless of the post-production debate that always arises with the supers these days (maybe with the exception of Christy), we've seen this cover image from Kate way too many times for this to remotely interesting or stimulate any kind of feeling other than indifference (from me at least).
 
HOLY PHOTOSHOP!

This is definitely excessive, her lips don't look like that. I know Luigi & Iango go hard on the retouching but this is unpalatable for me.
 
Oh my God, if I read one more KaTE mosS dOesN’T LOOK LiKe THaT comment. Yes, she aged, so what? She still looks great and like herself and the retouching here looks phenomenal. She looks gorgeous, and using photoshop, lighting, angles, and makeup to make someone look like the most glamorous and most beautiful version of themselves isn’t just par for the course, it’s what I personally want from magazines. Sell me the fantasy.

Preach. I’m going to print this comment and pin it on my wall, thank you.

Its not even excessively photoshopped, people only think it is because of the reasons you said, but its either not photoshopped at all or not any more retouched than anything else is.
 
Hate the nose ring cover but she doesn't look too photoshopped imo. She doesn't look that drastically different...
 
Only pic I like is the portrait with the head wrap thing. My problem with everything else, is not the photoshop, but the fact that it just looks like reprints. An old editorial I'm looking at again. There's no originality here, much less creativity.
