W August 2007 : David & Victoria Beckham by Steven Klein

[Fabulyss]

Hmm here are few more pictures,i am officially shocked.This could be done only in W,no other mag would feature them like this.I can hear the readers letters coming in,complaining about sexual context of their edit.

Didn't they do a similar photoshoot for one of the European Vanity Fair magazines? He had her doubled up over a table in front of him while he held her hair.

^ Do you mean the Leibovitz story? Or the Klein shoot with Posh 'n Becks for L'uomo Vogue july 2003?

Hahah they did,it was for a L'uomo Vogue with Klein also,but seriously it was nowhere near this explicit.

 

[kasper!]

perhaps i've been completely de-sensitized but i really don't understand the 'shock' of this editorial.....sure they're half naked and in provocative positions but havent we all seen this before.....i am not a fan of either of them but, physically speaking, they look great in this ed.....i find it very sexy, although i wish her hair and face were a bit less severe....she always seems like she's 'forcing' her face.....he on the other hand looks genuinely passionate in the photos....

I haven't been this excited to pick up an issue of W in quite some time. Great editorials and eye candy .

I still don't understand those kind of point of view... of course this is déjà-vu and no more provocative or whatever... in terms of "taboo" in photo it's so over... it has even became almost "conservatism" or "classic"...
but you know people are always puritans when they see people having those kind of (sensual) behaviour onto the pellicular....

and for my part, what really strikes into this editorial is not even the fact we get into the ("sexual") intimicy of David B. and Victoria but the portraits of David B. ... himself... they are really beautiful...
it looks like a guy running away from sthg (his celebrity maybe...) and giving up everything he had... almost a (overdone) Bonnie & Clyde story

in terms of fashion styling this story is useless so i concentrate onto the portfolio...

Doutzen's editorial is great!

 

[Northern Star]

OK the Beckhams look pretty good but I am sooooooooo bored of the whole going to America circus. Will it ever stop????????

Me neither. I was a bit surprised to see that people found it shocking, actually.

doutzen editorial is interesting. well, she is gorgeous, and i like her make up and red hair. it reminds me of bjork's video Human Behaviour.

BUT, The Becks are just.... welll....to vomit?

never!

I seriously don't think the beckmania will stop 'till the beginning of 2008. Because:
1. There will be another million articles once David plays an actual game for L.A. Galaxy

2. Victoria goes on tour for the spice girls in November 2007.

i used to think of her as a stuck p snob footballer's wife,but she actually seems pretty nice.i saw her on a couple interview over this past week,she's actually a very sweet girl

 

[Carrme]

I Love these pictures! They are hott! but yet beautiful..This couple is tres sexy

 

[style_expert]

the whole theme of the Posh & Becks edit has been done SO many times before..especially by Steven Klein...it'd be nice to see them in a more classy editorial...but then again, throw in some shirtless David Beckham and Posh trying to be sexy, and you get the standard trashy Beckham vibe..it's just how I expected this editorial to be..totally uninspiring and highly unoriginal

the M&M edit is just nice...a few pics are very similar to last month's Kiev edit by Teller (what's up with this pose?)..Doutzen is just ok in this editorial..they could have picked a better model
