I really don't understand all the hate for Natasha's editorial. I think she looks incredible and she and Jamie make a brilliant couple. Although I'm a bit jealous of Jamie I have to say.

[fincher]

well, all the photos, i ´ve already seen in this thread, are ok. but just ok, nothing special. and Terry´s ad is boring... his work became so predictable

 

[avantgarde]

Freja's edit looks so stunning, scans!

 

[jf813]

Wow...she looks so different! Pretty cover!

 

[Zazie]

French Vogue is getting from bad to worse - the styling is unimaginative, the looks repetitious, and is banking on sex, nudity and "shock" (the tired Terry Richardson variety) which aren't even interesting or mildly provocative, just dumb and cliche. This is one of the worst issues of any Vogues ever, even the NYTimes Sunday fashion special is beating this hands down.

i dont agree....i think vogue paris has the little twist and shows fashion in a different way!!!!and goes over the borders sometimes!!but without these magazines it would be so boring
i think also this issue is very inspiring!!

Oh, it's EASY, I'm NOT going to buy it. It doesn't mean I can't make an opinion about it, no?

I'm with those who are sick of the trite and formulaic eds and the lack of experiment and imagination.

 

[Bertrando3]

^ in fact I just finished reading the issue, it was super dupper booooooooooring, I was bored to death with all the editorials, the themes and clothes chosen didn't have anything exciting about them and the layouts are lacklusters! One more month and my suscription is over YEAH!

 

[fiqary]

OMG, constance's editorial looks amazing!! Where can I see the full ed?

I disagree with you guys on Vogue Paris lacking quality. I'm not saying I like the content 100%, but it showcases a unique point of view on fashion that would be missed if it didn't exist.

And magazines are not just 100% pictures. I guess you don't have that perspective when you don't understand the language of the publication, but Vogue Paris is definitely an important source of information for me in terms of fashion, beauty, culture, art, etc.

I totally agree with you. I must admit that I find the editorial content in this issue to pale in comparison to past September issues of Vogue Paris, but, in my opinion, a Vogue Paris issue with mediocre editorials is often just as good as or much better than what we see in other worldwide editions of Vogue, or any other magazine for that matter. I think everyone has written of these editorials just because many of them adhere to standard Vogue Paris formula, particularly the editorials styled by Emmanuelle Alt. While the images styled by Alt are quite repetitive, I, however, still find something fun and fresh about them. The Kate Moss editorial reminds me of a combination of two well-known female pop culture figures: Selina Kyle/Catwoman (I am particularly thinking of the Batman Returns version with Michelle Pfeiffer) and Sandy from Grease (more specifically, the transformed sexy Sandy at the end of the film). The head-to-toe leather, the big, permed Medusa hair (which also reminisces Glenn Close's infamous villainess Alex Forrest in the film Fatal Attraction), and the sultry come hither poses all bring to mind the key costume elements and personalities of these two characters. In regards to the Natasha/Richardson editorial, though I have seen the styling countless times before, I think the concept is quite tongue-in-cheek and funny. The ever-haughty and domineering Natasha plays the perfect army dominatrix.

The rest of the content is pretty standard Vogue Paris. I absolutely ADORE the Freja editorial and think it is the standout editorial of the issue. When I first saw the scans of her walking the huge wildcat in the streets, I instantly thought of Josephine Baker. Freja never fails to compel and magnetize me with her extraordinarily sultry elegance.

I appreciate the "Rive Gauche et Libre" editorial merely because it features fresh models that have (I think) never been in the magazine before (except, of course, for Malgosia). It is surely not Carine's best work with M&M, but it is still visually appealing.

I really don't think it is fair to judge a magazine on its editorial content alone. Besides its usually phenomenal editorials, Vogue Paris also has frequent fantastic features on art, film, music, public figures, and culture. I think VP is certainly a cultural authority and covers key topics/people sometimes YEARS before other magazines do. I find that when I read VP, I am instantly updated on what is happening CURRENTLY (and also often futurely) in the fashion, art, beauty, film, and music world. Honestly, I think VP is light-years ahead of other magazines when it comes to reporting trends and topics of significance.

Editorials only make up a fraction of a magazine, so I think it is ridiculous that some of you have already written off this magazine without even glancing through it.
