    America is way more conservative than Europe when it comes to fashion, that's why American Vogue is always a year behind the French or Italian version; American women - in general - need time to let the avant-garde become more mainstream before they will chance it.

    So if it's Charlize in September, that must mean Drew Barrymore in October.

    I got this issue over the weekend and well, it's OK. I don't know if I can handle another Charlie interview, but the Jenny Sanford article was at least somewhat interesting.

    I still had trouble finding the table of contents. I wish there would be a little flap you could pull out and open up to the table of contents, but then that would deprive you of the wonderful majesty of flipping through a gajillion ads.

    I might catch some flak for saying this, because even though I am a fan of Meisel, Leibovitz, et al, I think sometimes we get this deja vu because these photographers have worked for the mags so much that they're inevitably going to recycle some ideas, either consciously or not. More fresh, young/new talent would be welcome.

    @galaxina: I think that's basically inarguable. The well of ideas runs dry for everyone after a while, and the constant productivity that top fashion photographers are pressed into only hastens the process. Vogue needs new blood.

    Liya looks both highly skeptical and distinctly unimpressed with her hair in that first photo of her (photo 9).

    I like the Leibovitz photo of Karlie Kloss, when it's juxtaposed against the editorial photos. I look at them and realise that what's stunning about her is not so much prettiness (which isn't to say that she isn't pretty), but an incredible level of photogenicity (if that's a word). It's like, if you take each of her features in the portrait separately, they are almost ordinary (note I said almost), but in the editorial shots, she becomes like a work of art. I am in awe.

    @t-yo3: I once heard someone say that being photogenic really just means being able to hold your face really, really still. A lot of people with her features would have twitched before they could have caught that picture.

    In my ideal world, the articles on Roger will make the issue much bigger.

    I actually like that picture of Miley. I think it makes a statement on the entertainment and tabloid industry's exploitation of young starlets. She looks like her innocence is being stripped away from her. It's a very powerful photo.

    From picture 5, I hope it means grey roots are the new black. If so, my hairstyle is now officially highly fashionable.

    In reply to Banana Republic Partners With Mad Men; Watch & Learn With Chanel Couture
    I think Madmen is to some degree diluting their brand by partnering with Banana Republic. I like the clothes style too, but it's a little too Disney or Harry Potter Warner Bros marketing for me. Buy products which allow you to live in your fictional fantasy world! In the NYT piece they also refer to a Madmen inspired NYC trip. I love Madmen. The world is presents, however, is meant to be criticized, not emulated. Do the racist and misogynist attitudes come all inclusive in this travel package?

    Ladies, BR is owned by Gap Inc, and you know how Gap feels about their higher-end brands and ladies of the curvaceous persuasion. They'd NEVER do Joan dresses-- they can't even get curvy jeans right, why would they attempt dresses that curve in multiple places?

    @Ipomoea is a joyful girl: It's funny; I consider myself "curvy" and Banana Republic fits me much better than Gap. I think that the tailoring helps me out and the flimsy nature of the Gap only highlights any "flaws" rather than highlighting assets.

    The Chanel video was fascinating. I'd definitely watch a documentary about the formation of a dress from beginning to end (formation of fabric to runway).

    Someone needs to give Mr. Timberlake and Charles W. Givenchy or whoever is in charge over there a lesson on adverbs. It's play intensely. No wonder kids nowadays all write like Carrie Prejean.
