Vogue Russia June 2009 : Natalia Vodianova by Alasdair McLellan

[Mchunu]

this is such a rocky year for Vogue Russia.

 

[Franzy]

I don't like it. It looks very amateur. I need to see it in HQ before I give my final judgment.

 

[VogueParisLover]

this is such a rocky year for Vogue Russia.

That's what I've been thinking too. This year just doesn't compare to last. It kinda makes me sad that I got a subscription.

 

[AnaBGD]

Last year definitely was much better, the same goes for VP and VI too.

 

[Miss Dalloway]

^^Make that all mags, i been so underwhelmed this year its astounding. Have no excitement over certain Vogues anymore, until they cut slacking, and deliver something worthy.

 

[sethii]

Woah they went too far with the arms.

 

[Bert Berlin]

Better quality.

I like the cover even better, after seeing it in better quality. The colours are nice.
I need to warm to the Louis Vuitton headpieces, before I can say 'I love the cover'.

 

[gossiping]

well i like it a lot more now i see it in hq

 

[tarsha]

After UK Vogue we'll see naked Natalia again?

Cover says that she gets undressed

 

[Demelza]

I don't think we'll see natalia naked. Probably wearing lingerie (judging for the cover)

 

[LagerfeldBoy]

omfg natalia + the louis vuitton fw09 headpiece= perfection.
oh beautiful cover.

i know this is kinda off topic but does anybody know which places in Los Angeles carry Vogue Russia?

 

[LagerfeldBoy]

i think madonna looked pathetic but this cover looks nice.

WAY WAY WAY better on Natalia. she makes me wanna wear them and look oh so chic.

 

[j'adorekapusta]

actually i love Natalia's facial expression here (reminds me of why I've always been in love with NV). but the cropping is kind of ridiculous.

Nan Goldin shooting for Russian Vogue?

I'm not familiar with her work, so I had to look up Wikipedia.
These are very decent if not to say average photos of the two girls.

To cite the English summary: .... renowned American photographer Nan Goldin takes the plunge.
