Harper's Bazaar Hong Kong January 2005 With Jessica Stam On The Cover

i thought she looks cute! and that's why i bought it!

Notables Ads:

• Nicole Kidman for Omega
• Drew Barrymore for Lancome
• Riley Keough for Dior

Editorials:

• New Year New Desire 10 pages featuring Rusne for Dreammodels
• Deluxe, Dream and Desire 7 pages featuring Petra for Model Genesis

• Couture Creation 5 pages with 1 page featuring Courtney Herron (?!?) as quoted by the magazine. Who is she?
• 6 pages of Bold, Beautiful Pieces with Jessica Stam (reprint from US Bazaar I believe) images available from herframedgoodlooks.com
• 6 pages of The New Classics with Diana Dondoe in black & white. Gorgeous pictures! (reprint i think)
• 8 pages of Fashion's Modern Mix with Caroline Winberg. another reprint i believe! But looking good!

• 10 pages of Rich. Evening Glamour with Carmen Kass looking absolutely beautiful! i love it!!! she's so gorgeous! i'm so glad Bazaar hired her, but i dont think i saw it in US Bazaar! Sorry for my sloppy photography!

Verdict from me: This issue is more than i bargained for! I did not really expect to get so much out of one issue, but wowwww!!! Putting Jessica Stam on the cover was obviously a good choice, coz it made me buy it and well... of course there's room for improvement (ie. where is Eugenia?!? and the ads are pretty boring) but the Carmen Kass editorial certainly made me satisfied!
i'll give it a A-!

tortoisie: thanks so much for posting!! the carmen kass spread is brilliant!!
i will definitely print that out! vbmenu_register("postmenu_372817", true);

 

[LibertyRose]

liberty33r1b: You're welcome.

kimair: I was thrilled to see Vogue use a bit more creativity in its spring preview, and they did do an good job selecting the brands. I like that they used more models than usual as well, but I could've done without Karen Elson, Hana, Caroline Trentini, Isabeli, Heather Marks, and Stam. I am sure Daria will win an all-girl editorial in the next issue or two, if not both.

tortoisie: Thanks so much for the Nippon Vogue review. I like how Natalia looks on that cover. Vogue Nippon is one magazine that I love but don't always have access to. The new Lancome colors look sweet, but that Nicole Kidman for Omega ad is lifted right out from a picture she shot for US Vanity Fair a year ago.

Xone: that Carmen Kass ed is from US Bazaar, either November or December. And the new German Vogue looks fantastic. I must pick it up when I go to the airport in Jan.

And my contribution: Gisele Bundchen on the cover of Vogue Brazil's special Louis Vuitton issue:
