They drowned her in stuffy stuff. Neither she nor María Félix deserve that. Let there be light. MÁS LUZ. MÁS VIDA.

 

[MulletProof]

She seems like a perfectly nice person but let’s be honest.. she needs a few more surgeries and an education to pull off a fraction of what Maria Felix achieved effortlessly and fearlessly in a much harder context and not just on the surface but intellectually, too. No amount of Cartier or manually pulling your eyebrows will cut it.. you either have it or you don’t.

i prefer daria as Maria Felix...

She looks pretty! Without the María Felix inspiration it would have been just a great cover.

This one looks like a passport photo, not a Vogue cover.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say she's not doing a great job at standing on the shoulders of giants. And Vogue México is certainly not helping. I just wish they'd leave María Félix out of this.

besides Bulgari jewelry nothing says Maria Felix....i understand that maybe the idea was not portrayed as Maria but if you put the name on the cover, make something more...not this lazy work...and what happens with the cheekbones?....

 

[JPineapple]

They mentioned Maria Felix because she’s gonna play her in an upcoming biopic.

I hope that second cover won't be the one for Latin America, please! First is so striking.

After reading the article on vogue.mx, the question pops up on my mind as to why all this now. González says nothing about the movie, not even those few details that were revealed months ago. The interview is just a bunch of self-promoting platitudes, the name María Félix being tossed around randomly, dropped, used. I have no investment in Vogue México or María Félix, let alone in Eiza González, whom I had to Google just to check if I knew, because I most certainly didn't remember her. But this cover and cover story seem quite shady to me, in a sponsored content kind of way. Beneath Vogue.

My point exactly...ps: and those cheekbones too forced as you can see on the first and last cover more evidently.

I have no energy to go and read the interview but i believe @Horizontina ....

The sucking on cheekbones reminds me of models who used to that on the runways to give a more sculpted look (i.e. Caroline Brasch Nielsen)

 

[MulletProof]

^ she’s not sucking anything in though, just extreme buccal fat pad removal for you (doubt she even wanted it this extreme).

Glad Eiza scored another VM cover, and the first for VL. I saw her in Baby Driver and Hobbs & Shaw last week. She became a huge name in Hollywood during the last 4 years.

 

[VogueGirl8910]

Awkward both covers, she isn't have any emotion to interpret Maria Felix.

 

[FelipeV]

No. I mean, I know... but c'mon.

Alique’s coverstory is quite solid.

She’s improved as a photographer rather well. I don’t anticipate her shoots, but she’s showing a solid execution of technique and storytelling that captures a consistent mood, tone and attitude. And my God— that’s such a pleasure to see in these days of scattered-brain attention-span selects, random snaps and an utter lack of understanding or ability for technique and storytelling.

(They’re shameless with the Bulgari hustle here, but it's all good since its inclusion works with the old money story. The covershot is the weakest link.)

Alique made beautiful covers for VM (Christy Turlington, Amber Valletta and Ana de Armas), but this one doesn't look like her work.

Anyone has the editorials for this edition? I will buy it in the next week.
