Vogue Portugal May 2012 : Arizona Muse by Patrick Demarchelier

Very nice! I assume now everybody will say ''blah another reprint'', but so what? The photo is very nice, and the colours are great.
 
OMG another reprint its just like giving reasons to people hate the magazine.
The only positive point is the lack of text in my opinion
 
Great photo, Great colors. That`s just about it
 
i knew the shot looked familiar, but at least they chose a fun shot for the cover... this isn't bad

And though we know it's a reprint, chances are that most of their Portugese readers don't
 
Yes, another reprint from this shoot, if they are going to keep doing reprints then at least pick a good shot. Vogue Portugal can't even get the fonts, type etc right. Just looks amateurish to me, as if a student has put this together.
 
Do people not understand that smaller magazines sometimes don't have the budget to produce brand spanking new shoots for every issue? This is Vogue Portugal, not US Vogue. I'm not saying the magazine is automatically worse, but the simple fact is, they don't have a big enough readership or bring in enough revenue to produce as much new content as larger magazines.

Personally, I like the cover.
 
^Yes but every issue Vogue Portugal has one or sometimes 2 or 3 original editorial but they always gives us this reprint covers.
Last issue they had like 3 or 4 original editorials and they put a Vogue Japan photo on the cover.
That is just pure lack of independence as a magazine in my opinion, I dont understand

My thoughts exactly. :flower:
 
Is this considered such a great ed that Vogue Portugal and Hellas just had to have a reprint of on the cover? If you're going to have a reprint, at least pick a good one. :doh:
 
The cover is not that bad after all but Where is the originality?
 
I don't mind reprints, I understand financially why, but what I don't understand is the reuse of one of Arizona's worst editorials.

That's what I find so irritating about Vogue Portugal, it's like zero effort went into the cover. Okay, I know people around here violently hate Vogue Taiwan, but I have to give them credit for at least doing their own thing and having original covers. At least they somewhat try.

Also, Vogue Hellas and Vogue Australia seem to be able to use reprints creatively. Hell, the Vogue Hellas cover that used an image from this editorial for their cover is so much better than what Vogue Portugal did, or at least I think they did a better job:

LoL, I can't believe 4 VOGUEs have used this editorial into their issues:

UK VOGUE FEB 2012 (Cover)
VOGUE Hellas MAR 2012 (Cover)
VOGUE México/Latino-América MAR 2012
VOGUE Portugal MAY 2012 (Cover)
