Simply awful. And why Isabeli again?

This could have been a great cover with Daniela DiJesus.

Oh what a terrible cover. I like Isa but this is really bad!

The background is gorgeous, but that is not enough to save this cover - to me the big offender here is the styling, especially the whickety-whack accessories. It's a shame because with better styling (and a different pose) this could have been an awesome cover.

The cover is safe very natural location, Isabeli have a bad expresion, in my opinion this cover are better with Gisele or Karlie, but the styling is very Peru, in the mag are a Peru issue the cover need show Peru.

 

[ThickGlossies]

Isabeli is such a cheap model.

Does anybody remember that Peru inspired cover and editorial for Vogue Mexico with Tiiu from a year or two ago? Even that was better than this!

 

[anlabe32]

Isabeli is such an uninspiring model, and this cover is sooooo... blah.
Also, Mario Testino should NEVER use photoshop because he really can't handle it with care.

Disappointing is the word that comes to my mind.

Edit: three stories with three fabulous girls...? (Isabeli, Aymeline, Kate and Erin) Who's not fabulous then?

Mario being peruvian you would think he would avoid cliches and yet they are so batlantly on your face is sickening! imo...
such beautiful natural background, such awful styling. Isabeli's face is a photoshop disaster

 

[eneroenero]

it's a joke!! jaja

 

[IsabelMarantBoy]

Awful styling, I just can't like Vogue Paris anymore. And I imagine "colorful imagery" means we'll see every shade if denim, since this is Alt after all

 

[|PerfectTonight|]

The setting is fantastic but they made Isabeli look like anything but herself. This is so flat!

 

[loladonna]

This looks like an amateur test shoot superimposed over the background with Photoshop.

I have no respect for this.. VP has gone downhill since Carine. The covers are all the same and the editorial content is all the same. But this is just hilarious. She looks like she's posing for a catalogue, I'm seriously trying to keep myself from laughing. It's so weird to think that this is the same magazine that came out with October 2010's issue. That's my favourite magazine issue, ever. This is just.. shameful. Hilarious.

 

[lepetitcouturier]

Isabeli is such a cheap model.

Totally. I've never liked her.

 

[eneroenero]

the retouch is very very bad

Had to check 3 times if I was seeing Vogue Paris thread/cover. What happened to VP? It used to be pure simplicity yet elegance.
L’Officiel Paris has a better cover than Vogue Paris!

Poor Isabeli, after than her got this cover & the other one of the March issue of Vogue Mexico these people made than Isabeli looks terrible, i mean she's beautiful & she don't deserve the work who wants to make than she will look afwul. And one of the users said than this cover reminds the other cover Glamour France with Helena in the 90's & totally agree than the Helena's cover is better than this one.

 

[LabelWhore4]

You are so right.
French glamour was certainly the best fashion magazine back in the 90's. Now Vogue Paris under Carine is looking so much like French glamour. It's a good and bad thing; good because I've always loved the aestheticism of this magazine and bad because we are not in the 90's anymore (i wish! no photoshop!) and sometimes it feels awkward to see Carine copycat her own work. And doing it wrong.

Carine hasn't worked at VP in over 2 years.

This cover is crap and Emmanuelle needs to go. Isabeli deserved better, and she is far from cheap, but I don't expect everyone to have good taste in models.

I actually get the Peru vibe off the cover my only problem is the posing and photoshop that ruin it, even the hat wasnt so necessary.
A group shot would have also been much better, one including Liliane D, a differently styled Isabelli and a couple of more edgy South American models that can take the shoot from Nat Geo to Vogue
