Could someone one who lives in France or speaks french please please please do a review on this issue like LibertyRose and Kimair do for the other Vogues.

I've been told that it's sealed and I don't want to purchase it if there is nothing good inside.

:flower:

i'm going to ask around and see if i can get a review...i haven't seen it in the states yet...

Here we go

Thanks Dieselmax for this scan:flower: one question inside from the magazine have editorial of Mario Testino??
 
Thanks M-O-M, Kimair and Dieselmax.

I never buy mags without looking throught them first either. It looks kind of interesting from what I can understand on the contents page.
 
I actually really like the cover....as far as celeb covers go anyway. Very Nicole circa '99.
 
As you can see on the scanned (by Dieselmax) page above, there is only one huge (58 pages !) editorial photographed by David Sims and styled by Carine Roitfeld, Marie-Amélie Sauvé, Karl Templer and Joe McKenna.
The models i can name are Kate Moss, Gemma Ward, Cameron Russell, Raquel Zimmermann, Freja Beha, Julia Stegner, Hye Park (?), Lily Donaldson, Solange Wilvert (?), Diana Dondoe (?) and others I'm sorry not to recognize.
A few portraits of "createurs" are mixed inside (Phoebe Philo, Alber Elbaz, Stefano Pilati, Tao from Comme des Garçons, Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy, Olivier Theyskens).
I must admit that I don't like this ed at all, the mix of styles does not work, there is no direction in the styling nor in the photographs.

Besides :
6 pages about Nicole K., only 3 very uninteresting photographs by Patrick Demarchelier.
An article about Alaïa, 3 photographs by David Sims.
Portrait of Meg White from the White Stripes by David Sims (2 pg).
Article about Nicolas Ghesquière (4 pg) (one portrait of NG, one shoot of Gemma, both by David Sims).
At the end, an article about "Box", the "post-production" retouching studio which has worked on David Sims photographs.
If you want to know some more, I hope I would be able to answer.
 
What rating would you give this issue out of 5?

I'm not sure if I should buy it or not.

:unsure:

Thanks heaps in advance! :flower:
 
There's nothing really catching my attention... aside from this being a September issue, which means I'll have to give it a look anyway, of course... (sigh...)

I'm afraid I would give a really bad rating ; if 5 is the better and 0 is the worse, I give a 2 ; because of the ads and the interview with wim wenders, surely not because of the editorial which is a real mess, or the cover which is so unappealing or Nicole Kidman who has really nothing to say (verbally, physically).

But you may like things I dislike. I don't know what you're expecting from a magazine.

So it may be better flipping through if before you buy it.
 
jennifer~ and kaschemme, thanks for the help! :flower:

I don't think i'll get it then.

Saves money for my pocket for much better things! ^_^
 
hey i'm doing this for the tFS top 25 models thing. i just wanna ask who all the models are for the huge ed. thankies and karma for you!
 
I was quite disappointed with the way Nicole Kidman is styled for the cover. It's a throwback to her Mrs. Cruise days, days in which she plays second banana in movies like Batman. The makeup is sl*tty, and I don't see the point of putting her in a men's short with black underwear. Jennifer Aniston did that for September's Vanity Fair, and it's become a cliche.
 
Can someone please scan the photos of Meg White for me? I'm a huge White Stripes fan and Ms. Meg is a beauty. :flower:
 
What is Nicole promoting (hasn't Bewitched come out yet over there)?

I'm not a big fan of the cover, but it is straying from the habitual celebrity covers (a little at least).
