Paris Match reminds me of Arizona Muse's smiling editorial from Vogue Paris. Meh.
The main editorial is horrible. The second shot... what even? The editorial, as a whole, looks so contrived and laughable. And what is up with the mouth? Is she angry tho? I am so confused with the identity and aesthetic of Vogue Russia. They have over the top cover stories and somehow the rest of the editorials inside fall flat. It's like the entire VR team gave their 100% effort and energy to the cover story and felt sleepy about the time they're conceptualizing the rest of the editorials. Also, come to look at it, the cover story is always in a different league of its own when compared to the rest of the magazine. They really need to remind the fashion director of her duty to oversee the cohesiveness of the editorials that come to life in the magazine. In 1 editorial we have a VP-like ed (smiles), then we have a UK Vogue-like ed (Kibbler), then an editorial that even Elle Serbia will reject (Alexi). And some say VP is losing direction, at least that one has the 80s aesthetic affixed. How about this one though?
This magazine isn't even worthy of the VOGUE title anymore. Change it or close it for good.
