Vogue Paris May 2012 : Laetitia Casta by Mario Testino

[Forrest]

It's nice, it's clean but that's about it.

Keeping it simple, clean and fresh for May... this is a moment where I find Alt's style really works for me, and at least this seems like a proper cover image, unlike last month's slightly off-kilter shot of Doutzen, which looked like it was plucked from an editorial as a last-minute option for the cover, rather than created for the purpose.

Two decent shoots inside this issue and I'll be happy to get it.

This is really beautiful. Simple. Though I complain with the layout and the colors

 

[ForChicSake]

I like it
Thanks god it's not Poly, Rubik, Muse, Moss or any other overused VP regular by M&M or I&V. So sick of them all already.

I agree completely plus I love Laetitia so this is great, can't wait to see her ed and the actresses named

 

[greenholic]

nice job，looks like Cindy Crawford at first sight

 

[liberty33r1b]

really really beautiful cover, I totally love it. this is Alt's best cover so far, no doubt

 

[Alien Sex Friend]

i am pertty sure, malgosia b/w story by luchford is from this issue.

 

[thiago:)]

Nice cover, she looks good. Hope to see more interesting actress inside... Too predictable to put her on the cover.

 

[HeatherAnne]

I'm loving the minimal cover, the pop of blue was the right color choice with the styling. I'm not crazy about Laetitia as an actress, but she looks good here.

 

[LUXXX]

I'm fine with Laetitia, but the cover design and photo is very American Vogue. And in fact, US Vogue's last few covers have looked more creative than this thanks to M&M.

 

[Frenchkiki]

What a boring model choice. I mean she looks great but I would have prefered a model from this period, or at least someone fresh.

A model from what period? She is on the cover as the actress she is not as the model she still is. It's a special French actresses not a special models.

I love this cover a lot (true she looks like Cindy C at first glance) but they could have done so so much more better with Laetitia! Something more artistic & movie star & grandiose! A picture like this could be on the cover of French Elle.

But oh well, that's Laetitia so

 

[jeremydante]

i am, actually, obsessed with this cover. the blue masthead against the white- it's very supermodel-esque & i love it. great job VP! go testino.

 

[Marc10]

Well it's a beautiful cover, I can't deny that. But it seems like the word creativity has been completely erased from VP's vocabulary.

 

[Nepenthes]

I'm not loving the cover. It looks dated and not like Vogue.

 

[Srdjan]

Great cover. This & Doutzen's are the best for a long long time in the French Vogue..

 

[Srdjan]

And I simply can't believe a cover this nice is shot my Testino

 

[thankyouhon]

Wow, even American Vogue has less commercial covers than this.

 

[Pradable]

This cover is beautiful, and colors used look really good.

 

[MyNameIs]

STUNNING. Truly one of the most beautiful covers in a while. The color combination is fresh. Laetitia is looking divine. I'm in love with everything that this cover chooses to be. Finally a major Vogue that isn't trying too hard to be 'edgy', but rather giving us beautiful, stunning images.

 

[GERGIN]

Seriously? Why hasn't Alt used a theme or background in any of her recent covers? I am so sick of seeing this boring covers from French Vogue, The only Magazine cover i've ever liked by Alt was the August 2011 with Lara Stone....
