Sexy in a femenine way... Im a sucker for Rosie, so im already in love. To bad this Vogue edition dont produce a cover story with the actual cover girl!

 

[MON]

Did Vogue Japan forget that they are a Vogue franchise? What on earth is this? Is this even to be considered stylish? Is this even to be considered as styling? I do get the "body" initiative, but this is just beyond lazy! There are so many ways to execute the body initiative and there are so many clothes to perfectly reflect that! I cannot with the creases. I just want to get up here and iron that clothing! The shot itself looks like a catalog shot for Hanes. This is beyond unacceptable. The worst Vogue Japan cover in the history of Vogue Japan!

Don't even get me started with her weird chest area and that bangle looks like it was doodled onto the image! What a disaster.

P.S.: If the theme is "loving and standing for your own body", then Rosie didn't even have to pose at all. Confidence and feeling sexy with your own body should come even if the person is just standing there. It's like she's trying to make herself looks sexy, which is the opposite of the message. It's my body, I love it, it's beautiful, and I don't have to pose in any way to make it look flattering because it's already in it's best form.

I can't stand her. Her face looks always so ugly, try-hard and zoolanderish. This is no exception. Ughh.

 

[Miss Dalloway]

Gorgeous, she is so stunning that i dont mind lack of "Fashion" on the cover.

 

[TeeVanity]

Adore Rosie, it's a cool cover. However is Giampaolo gonna photograph every Vogue Japan cover?

 

[DutchHomme]

I like the cover
She is not ugly .. she is goodlooking & sexy but she's not a versatile model
She's always posing like a FHM model

 

[gazebo]

Embarassing. No other words.

They go through phases.

The image is too bland for a cover and the layout too overpowering imo.
Rosie on the cover is surprising, is this her first VJ cover? I would never associate her with VJ...

 

[Oxymore]

That's so bad. I don't feel like Rosie fits Vogue Japan tbh.

 

[Moofins]

The pose is atrocious and her face looks plastic. Nah, no thanks. Nothing about this cover feels natural.

 

[GIVENCHYlover]

Who's the designer? Kanye for Adidas?

 

[gazebo]

For me, she is the ultimate example that beautiful is not enough to be a model. I never got her appeal.

 

[Royal-Galliano]

^ me neither.

i'm counting down the days until vogue japan starts using virtual models. seriously, she looks like a doll with wax finish...

I think much of the blame here falls on Sgura's shoulders. I have yet to see even one amazing, well composed, or fashion forward cover image shot by him regardless of the model. How has he managed (and who does he know) to be a Vogue go-to cover photographer?!

 

[VogueGirl8910]

Maxim?... Anyway, horrerous cover.

 

[justaguy]

Completely lazy cover in every way.

 

[Starry]

The main problem they have to deal with is getting rid of Sgura from this magazine.

Rosie is totally fine,she's been in many fashion cover.She looks great even though it wasn't that great overall but can't blame her alone.
