Vogue Netherlands May 2012 : Lara Stone by Josh Olins

Sorry, I was referring to the cover choice, not the magazine itself, i've very delighted you netherlanders have your own magazine now, Canada is still waiting for theirs :(
 
Beautiful cover image but the cover somehow leaves me cold.
 
i just got the issue. The cover is quite oke, for me it those look like a suplement cover, but im happy it is Lara :wink: Editorial with rianne is great, editorial with Iekeliene is not good at all ! And i normally always love Iekeliene. There is also a editorial with querelle and that those not look like vogue at all, it is very dutch glamour magazine style! But im happy with the cover model choice and the model choice for the editorials.
 
Here's a review. At least Lara brings some kind of international appeal. It seems the cover was shot on her terms with a rather Vogue UK team (with Josh Olins shooting and Gillian Wilkins styling)...In fact I can imagine they shot this cover while working on some Vogue UK edit at the same time.

I think it's a great issue. Especially compared to the April issue. Bregje and Rianne are great. The Petrovsky & Ramone story is amazing.
 
Were all subscribers supposed to get this today? Because I didn't recieve my issue :(
 
^Yes, I assume so. I don't where you live in Holland, but PostNL has been screwing up big time lately in certain areas, so that may have caused delay?

What's the availability of Vogue Netherlands outside of the Netherlands? Specifically, has anybody in Sweden seen it?

I'll scan all the great editoreals tomorrow!
 
The cover is very British Vogue indeed, I don't find it pretty (I sense that was the intention) but I'm glad it takes them on a stronger route than their debut issue.. the rest of the stories, although not particularly relevant, also show that 'Vogue' quality (good models, meticulous photography, etc).

Without intention of hurting anyone's inner chauvinist :lol:, one thing that makes me want to avoid this thread is the defensiveness that's often projected, it happened last month and I still see it here.. as if by criticising Vogue Netherlands, someone then must have a special aversion towards the Dutch. It's very infantile, but I have hopes thick skin will grow and things will change. Criticism can't always be perfect and completely constructive or adulating but I still think people should be comfortable about expressing their opinion, especially when it's pretty evident that we all have a certain degree of enthusiasm and experience when it comes to fashion and magazines. When a cover isn't good for many, why bringing up their countries or other magazines in order to disqualify their opinion?.. things are a lot more fashion-oriented than it may seem, if the name of this place isn't a hint..

Thanks so much for the scans, I'll be waiting for the rest tomorrow patiently... These editorials are bland, having Lara on the cover and not exploiting her potential. For sure Bert looks really cute in there, but it looks like a bunch of pics taken on a holiday. Cannot wait to look at the rest though, I have not lost faith on VNL, they can and will improve with time. After all, they're better than some old Vogue publications. They have the models and the photographers do come up with good work and ideas.

Lara's editorial has been done too many time's it's cute still though, Dovile V. is great as always! Looking forward to see Rianne, Querelle and Iekeliene's editorials ^_ ^
This issue seems really different from the first one, maybe they're exploring options and what direction they want to take as a magazine
 
I love the cover, very sweet. "Lovely Lara" is a little ridicule but...
 
Wow these editorials are great!
