Gosh I wanted to love the covershoot of Mathieu so badly, I was waiting to see the whole editorial but wow it's very very Zoolander and totally not appealing. It could have been classy or edgy but not clownesque.
- They made him look ridiculous.
- The poses are way too over the top.
- The styling is very cheap and bad.
- That cover, although flashy, looks stupid. (Normal stand with arms against his body would have worked and without the silly sunglasses)
- His GQ France is still his best for now.
This had SO MUCH POTENTIAL, but they ruined it with the silly over the top poses / the crazy styling that does not make sense, and only 3-4 photos can be saved out of the bunch. Then again when you see ''this is fashion now'' tagline on British Elle cover with that joke of a female model that is Precious Lee then yeah lol: I don't want the ''now fashion of 2024''.
