The first second I laid eyes on this cover, I was perplexed. And I’m certain this is one of those pictures that just won’t grow on me. As much as I love Doutzen Kroes, Vogue Paris April 2012 has it all wrong!
Doutzen looks like David Sims didn’t plan to take her picture but to scare her completely, her hair looks like styled by the stylist’s mad cat and her outfit was pre – arranged by Riccardo Tisci when he presented the Givenchy Spring Summer 2012 collection. Where’s the inspiration? Where’s the fashion revolution and the style Bible paragraphs we’re supposed to bow down to? Oh, and is that a bottle hanging on the necklace around her neck?

It had the makings to be a really great cover but it does fall short, and that is a shame because I really like Doutzen.
This is just plain boring. Doutzen is a great model but they killed it here!
Ha, next Thursday we have at last a Dutch Vogue. Not that I really care anymore. I’m not going to mention all the reasons that annoy me why we have the Conde Nast permission at last. Was satisfied with UK’s Vogue anyway. So used to it after all these years……
The cover is still a secret. But it’s going be a Dutch model. Please not Daphne G., I know the editor and editor at large loves her, not Doutzen, though I love her but I have a bit of an OD….please let them have had the braveness to give the honour to another Dutch model?
I like the variety of model cover girls that Paris Vogue has been utilising & I also like the silver disco pants! Kudos to Doutzen for this cover but the facial expression & pose just leave me asking ‘why bring out the ugly in a beautiful woman’? I just don’t get it!
I have a change of heart and mind. If Doutzen is on the cover of the first Dutch Vogue I’m fine with it. I was wrong. She’s one of our biggest star model’s ever: she deserve the honour. She’s also a lovely woman with her heart on the right place. Candid photos of her are far more pretty than this cover. She also looks thinner…argh….
Yesterday evening the launch of Dutch Vogue in a few days has been mentioned in a ironic way in a news programme! I said it earlier; odd timing. Anyway, even Dutch tv shall pay attention by broadcasting The September Issue (I own the dvd but it’s fun nevertheless) and after that a Dutch Vogue report of the launch will be broadcast. My Dutch Vogue is ordered yet; they save it for me. We Dutch need dreams…;) :)
This is way exciting and way nifty Riana! It would be so swift if they used all Dutch models for the very first issue!
Please give a review of it when you get the time! : )
Keep dreaming sweetie. <3
Of course I will Ellington! Lol, I was about to post to mention I just noticed since today there’s a Vogue commercial on tv; the countdown to the launch and to promote the programmes I mentioned for next Wednesday :)
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind
;) :)
