Cover Loving: Kate Moss And Her Four i-D Covers

id magazine kate covers Cover Loving: Kate Moss And Her Four i D Covers %tag

Q is for Queen in i-D magazine’s pre-spring Alphabetical issue and it seems that they decided to put the Queen of all supermodels on not one but four covers as Kate Moss continues to out work models half her age.

Shot by Daniele + Iango, the covers not only look incredible, but they also celebrate 20 years of Kate Moss winking on the i-D cover. Looking at these shots you wouldn’t think that Mossy was 40, mush less that she first posed for i-D back in 1993 – she looks stunning in each one.

I can’t decide which is my favourite cover, I do love a black and white cover, I adore her Dior bow, the sexiness of the Saint Laurent hat, and the girliest cover I have seen from her is the floral Prada. Basically I love them all, but I think the black and white with the messy plait gets my vote. Now all I need to do is track it down!!!

SS13 Campaign: Versace Does Post Apocalyptic Glamour

Versace SS13 ad 1 SS13 Campaign: Versace Does Post Apocalyptic Glamour %tagSo according to the Mayans the world was suppose to end today, I forgot all about it, but Versace obviously decided to do their own version of what an apocalypse would look like, and of course it would be glamorous and filled with half-naked gladiators.

For the spring/summer 2013 campaign, shot by Mert & Marcus, Versace has brought together three iconic models Kate Moss, Daria Werbowy and Joan Smalls and each one looks absolutely hot – especially Kate who is being flanked by three very hunky gladiators, Edward Wilding, Kacey Carring and Veit Couturier.

Of the campaign, Donatella Versace said:

“To have three glamorous and iconic women like Kate, Daria and Joan in one campaign is not an easy feat. Mert and Marcus really outdid themselves, each image is composed like a work of art.”

This is one steamy campaign that I am sure for some will be a little too fake, or photoshopped, but come what do you expect from Versace – these images are so on brand for me and I love them – they are OTT, striking, and so, so sexy.

What do you think of Versace’s spring/summer 2013 campaign?

December Covers: The Many Faces Of Kate Moss

Kate moss covers December Covers: The Many Faces Of Kate Moss %tag

With December marking Kate Moss’ 25th anniversary as a model it is no surprise that magazines around the globe wanted her as their end of 2012 cover star – what did surprise me was how very different each cover made her look.

There is a blonde Kate shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot for Vanity Fair, a veiled Kate for Vogue Espana captured by Mario Testino, and then there is a vibrant Kate on the cover for Elle Japan snapped by Sonia Sieff who certainly doesn’t look 38 years-old.

Each cover is so very different, but each cover is equally as divine, and what I love is that Kate really is showcasing her model pedigree with these covers and accompanying editorials.

I was trying to decide which one was my favourite, I keep fluttering between the Vanity Fair and Vogue Espana covers, I adore Kate’s blonde blunt fringe on the VF cover but there is something mysterious and alluring about her close-up cover shot beautifully by Testino.

So which cover gets your vote?

Cover Loving: Kate, Lara and Daria All Wear The Same Dress For New Look Vogue Paris

VogueParisKate Cover Loving: Kate, Lara and Daria All Wear The Same Dress For New Look Vogue Paris %tag

I had been wondering how long it would take Emmanuelle Alt to place her own stamp on Vogue Paris it has been a staggering 18-months since she succeeded Carine Roitfeld as editor in chief and it seems she wanted to wait for a September issue to showcase a new fresh vibe for one of my favourite magazines.

The new cleaner, airier layout, with remodelled typography has taken its inspiration from Vogue Paris’ look in the Sixties and Seventies, I have a number of vintage Vogue Paris magazines from then and I am excited to see it in print.

To launch the new look Vogue Paris the magazine has shot three collectors’ covers, featuring three supermodels Kate Moss, Daria Werbowy and Lara Stone, all snapped by Mert & Marcus, all wearing the same Dolce & Gabbana black dress, and all sporting the same slicked back hair and red lippy - yep identical covers. So basically it is a fashion face-off between Kate, Daria and Lara to see who can wear the dress best!!!

Cover Loving: Kate Moss In Louis Vuitton For Vogue Japan

KateMossVogue Cover Loving: Kate Moss In Louis Vuitton For Vogue Japan %tag

I have long admired Vogue Japan’s covers and I had to admit I am loving Kate Moss as a ball of sunshine in Louis Vuitton for the magazine’s April cover. Shot by Mert & Marcus, this cover has been getting a lot of stick for the weird lighting, Kate’s fake-tan overload and the decision to have it on a white background, I think it is just me but it is because of all those reasons that I like this cover.

First up the lighting really does project sunshine, it looks like it is radiating out that gorgeous feather-embellished Louis Vuitton dress from the spring/summer 2012 collection especially on a white background, and secondly I love how it defines Kate’s shrinking waist and shows off her iconic cheekbones. Plus how can you not love this dress – it is totally cover worthy – and works perfectly with the candy coloured captions.

For me it certainly is sweet and exotic. What do you think – love or hate Kate’s latest cover?

Cover Loving: Kate Moss as David Bowie – Again

voguepariskate Cover Loving: Kate Moss as David Bowie   Again %tag
As you all will know by now I am an avid Vogue Paris reader, but I have to confess I am not sure about the December/January cover showing Kate Moss transformed into Ziggy Stardust. As a David Bowie tribute goes it is authentic, complete with the bright orange-hued mullet wig, but I kind of think that Vogue UK did a better job depicting Kate as Bowie on their May 2003 cover shot by Nick Knight.

One thing I do love though is the sparkly Balmain dress and her striking stare.

Also is Moss getting younger or have Paris Vogue gone a little crazy with the photoshop??

Cover Loving: Kate Moss For Vogue Brazil

I am not sure how I missed this amazing Kate Moss cover for Vogue Brazil’s May issue. The nude shot taken by her favourite photographer Mario Testino is one of the best I have seen of Kate, and I can’t wait to pick up this 36th anniversary edition.

Apparently the shoot which took place in both Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo, took five days to shoot and used up around 60 pages of a monster 508-paged issue. That is one serious editorial. I will be picking up my copy from the Conde Nast magazine shop.
