It’s the most important time of the year for us fashion/magazine folk, as our favorite fashion glossies begin to unveil their all-important fashion editions of the year – the September issue!
First up, like clockwork, is Vogue Japan’s offering of the month. To kick-start the festivities, the magazine’s head of editorial content Tiffany Godoy selected none other than Hailey Bieber as the title’s cover star (reappearing on the mag’s front cover a whole five years after her last). Captured by photographer Richard Burbridge and with Patti Wilson on styling duties, the firm fave of Saint Laurent’s Anthony Vaccarello sports a look from the legendary French fashion house’s Fall 2023 collection in the cover shot – teamed with some Tiffany & Co. jewelry.
Needless to say, our unfiltered forum members were straight on the magazine’s case regarding the outcome. “I’ll give it to them – it actually conforms to being a traditional cover shot. It’s not some art school concept, flipped at an angle, cut off at the top, scrawled over with amateur fonts,” reasoned tigerrouge.
“I’m with you 100%,” responded vogue28. “The cover is far from stunning, and certainly doesn’t excite me but it’s the first Vogue Japan cover in months that feels… somewhat normal. I am very much a fan of the sight of Vaccarello’s Saint Laurent, those autumnal colors and the warmth this cover radiates – especially for a September cover.”
Sharing the same enthusiasm was MyNameIs, adding: “I like it. Sleek, glamorous, and beautiful. Not often you see that in fashion these days, which is a shame!”
However, not everyone was so forthcoming. “Out of all the nepo and reality TV models she is easily the worst. She has zero presence. The clothes always just consume her completely,” voiced Gary89.
“Does she know how to close her mouth? Her facial expression is terrible and always the same,” disapproved forum member JPineapple.
“Oddly, I like this. I feel like I shouldn’t though. Maybe our universal standards have just fallen so much,” commented marsnoop2.
