Wow, this issue is actually spectacular! A perfect balance. Don't recall Vogue Japan using this many Asians talent behind and in front of the lens, must say it makes a tremendous difference. One which I applaud. I'll never cease to marvel at Yuka Mannami. Her backstory is so interesting, to think that if lady luck didn't pay her a call she may have spent her life cleaning bedpans and the likes. Her edits are always stunning, immaculate presence. The second girl in Demarchelier's Dior edit, Gisele Fox, reminds me of a modern Audrey Marney. So doll-like!
Must say I like ALL the edits, which is rare nowadays. Even Instagirl Taylor's. Love the energy in that story. I'm not one to swoon at male models, but the tattooed guy's attitude makes him terribly attractive.
