Very 80's style, looks like a vintage cover for the mag for that decade.

I´ve never heard of her... on one hand, it´s nice to see a new face on VP but on the other I think she brings nothing, she´s just there. I like the styling but imo it´s lost on her, another girl with more attitude (*coff* Raquel *coff* ) would have been better.

Looks very very promising!

Luna is a gorgeous new face that fronted Emporio Armani S/S 2016 by Lachlan Bailey and she has been featured on Vogue Australia editorials

Based on the preview, I like it so far. It's not as strong as last month's, but definitely better than April & May. I'd wait for the hq photo before I judge

But that earring tho...

Gosh, I LOVE it! Very Chris con Wagenheim. Might be my fav cover under Alt's tenure.

Wow, this might be the very first time I saw this comment from you (re: Alt's VP!) But I agree with the reference. A toned down version of Chris con Wagenheim.

I know that this isn't what people wanna hear, but Raquel will never be on a Vogue Paris cover, if it hasn't happened yet and it's 2016, it won't ever.

But anyways, this cover is not so bad.

^I know, I was just kidding

Very glamorous.

 

[Miss Dalloway]

This is such a huge deal for her, to score a cover of VP, when she has been around for only few years, and really hasn't done all that much print work. Super happy for her.

Sadly, i think the cover is terrible, she exudes NOTHING here, the background, and the styling clashes, it looks vulgar and cheap! Some other model would sell me this so much better! Because an 18 year old (?) in this mode? I will never ever believe, or find engaging!

I'm in love with this cover! And I'd never thought it was show by David Sims, more like I&V. Can't wait for the HQ.

P.S. Raquel actually was on the cover of Vogue Paris in February 2000

Love it, gaudy 80's luxe, and it works! If only she looked more confident. That duck pout doesnt help much. Excess such as this requires a bit of bravado.
Do they have a new art direction? It looks promising.

The casting feels a bit random, but it's a step in the right direction. I'm all for more newbies!

I don't think so? I think it's a combination of their standard font and the font they used for Mica's cover last year

But that wasn't the main cover, was it? I think it was a limited. Malgosia got the one which went to newsstands.

Oh, really? Good for her then. but i'm just saying it won't happen again.

I like Raquel, but it's the truth.

I'm in love with this. It looks perfect. It's obviously inspired by Chris but at the same time they added a different vibe... She looks so vulnerable, young and innocent! And that pout! I hate pouty lips but here it looks perfect because of the naiveté of her attitude. It's not a vulgar pout but something different... Like when childs are upset cause you've scolded them and pout their lips, put the head slightly down but look up to you...

And the bronzed skin, the hair, the over the top styling that doesn't match with her attitude... Like she wanted to look like a 'strong' girl if you judged her by the clothes but at the end she's a very innocent young girl... Really outstanding. I want it. It has that VP chic and cool aura of the good old days.

And that blue, which Chris used a lot, mixed with that pink fur... I DIE. Amazing.

Yes, just a runway supplement unfortunately.

 

[guimon]

I LOVE IT! It really feels like the good old Vogue Paris.

 

[Lola701]

Are they also bringing the glamour back? I'm all for it!
I love it. It's indeed very Chris Con Wagenheim, like a modern-Carlyne Cerf de Dudzeele approach of CCW.
VP is on a roll.
