This would be such an excellent issue if it wasn't for the touch of evil provided by Katie Grand and Anna Dello Russo in 'No Crime to be Rich' and 'Never Enough' respectively, not only the titles and the entire execution is something to feel pity for but also the sequence of all these gorgeous autumn stories and the mood created is killed right there. The fact that they are two of the busiest women in fashion and that people feel compromised to hire them in order to create hype or validate their magazine through their vulgar approach to trends is just.. really sad.
I agree with gossiping, A Renaissance of Style is quite the highlight here.. I love how individual, slightly eccentric but still coherent each look is and Tommy Ton does such a good job at creating a balance between capturing what makes these clothes so special and a sort of mundane atmosphere in his photos. Is this the first time he works for a major publication btw?, he should do it more often..
thanks for all your scans, MAGstyle.
