I love her and I want to love the cover but the hair on her face... why?

 

[caioherrero]

Is this the first issue under the new editor?

It's as though she doesnt age at all! Now this is what we call ageing gracefully.
Even though it sickens me to see Gray Sorrenti shoot yet another cover (and we all know why! Spoiler alert, it's not her talent), it's good for WSJ. She's one of the few celebrities who I don't particularly want to see dolled up in the latest fashion all the time. Probably the one time I'm prepared to give Clare Richardson's dull as dishwater styling the pass.

She looks lovely, but the women's fashion issue and they style her like she's working at a random office building circa 2012?

That past shot of Jennifer in the strapless dress is such a blatant copy of Michael Thompson. I didn’t know hippies can also be copycats.

she’s gorgeous but i find her extremely boring

 

[THD96]

Okay, where's the fashion??? I can't find it.

 

[fenty]

The most uninteresting white woman on this planet.

It's Clare Richardson, lol.

Generally love WSJ. (and Aniston) but this is not great. They just got a new EIC (cost cutting measure -- they hired the former digital director to replace Kristina O'Neill), and I hope this isn't a sign of things to come.

I want to love this because I like her as an actress + I love ''The morning show'' tv series = however I can't.
It's a boring styling + amateurish photography + the selection of photos is super dull = bad result.
It's such a shame when magazines do this : they have the talent person in front of them + they have the money to produce a decent shoot = nevertheless it's most of the times plain and boring.
I also can't shake the feeling that many smaller or indie magazines can rock something much better with the same celebrities versus what big magazines produce most of the times.

Agreed, supplements specifically have more creative freedom and they don't need to worry about covers selling good or bad or trending on social media. Plus they generally have bigger budgets because of smaller expenses.

Maybe they're going for the quiet wealth aesthetic which is of course Clare's aesthetic, but does it have to be so dull?

This feels like a palette cleanser following the unveiling of Elle's September cover with Zendaya, and I'm not complaining. I have a massive soft spot for WSJ. Magazine (and Jennifer Aniston for that matter) and despite the laidback attitude and nonchalant styling for a fall fashion offering, it's all just so... good and instantly wins me over.

Everything is a bit clumsy but it’s Jen and I’m biased so everything is forgiven

 

[VogueDisciple93]

It's wild how gray sorrenti keeps on getting high profile work with how pedestrian her photography is.

I think this type of offbeat style editorial would look more genuine if it wasnt overly retouched. In the en dits the photographer and stylist that missed something.

 

[PowerDroid]

both the images and the styling are a miss for me, it's all so basic and clumsy, uninspiring.
