W Magazine September 2008 : Kate Hudson by Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott

[fafafafashion]

Kate Hudson looks ridiculous on that cover. Talk about trying too hard!

Any info about the contents?

Trying too hard? How?

Pages: 556

Hits: Profiles, profiles, profiles, but of lots of people you want to read about. First, there are niche, interesting names in fashion, from the designer behind Inhabit knits, to Erdem, a new fave of Keira Knightley's. A profile of outgoing Met Museum director Philippe de Montebello and his harsh judgment of the average museum goer that is sure to be controversial. Plus, a profile of Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales. The one fashion shoot we loved by Mert + Marcus had Kate Moss playing Sheba in an Istanbul bathhouse. Steamy.

Misses: Not a fan of the Mert + Marcus "homage" to Helmut Newton. The model's no Nadja Auermann. Then it gets weirder with Tilda Swinton (apparently she likes her shoots arty). Ditto on the Mert + Marcus (again!) cover shoot of Kate Hudson playing against type - dead, that is - as a morgue subject. (Acting!)

News You Can Use: An interview with Comme des Garcons' Rei Kawakubo about her guest-designer collection for H&M, which will mean a whole different set of elbows jockeying for clothes when they hit stores in November. Also: The hot dermatologists in Hollywood who have the new Pearl laser, plus a look at the most expensive new moisturizer on the market and why it's $1,000 a jar - the secret's in the real platinum, folks.

eeek, trying-too-much is exactly what i associate with hudson... the cover is too much but not enough, just like she herself...

tori spelling would be a better choice, at least surpring and hilarious

There's also an edit by Mert & Marcus with Kate Moss playing Sheba in an Istanbul bathhouse.

 

[surrealseven]

Oh, thats good! Hope both of them are long eds

The Kate Moss in Instanbul editorial sounds interesting. I was wondering which magazine that would turn up in since I saw candids of Kate and Mert in Instanbul.

 

[mikel]
