Dior / Vogue fur and feathers

Posted by Mikhail K. on September 25, 2006, 9:42:24

* At the risk that Sheeny already covered this:
- Vogue US September is a must-have, if you still can get it. I managed to lay my hands on the issue this Saturday; it has a number of very nice pictures in the ads and the editorials, and the yearly 'fur advertorial' is in there too. Also a nice 4-page feather (!) ad by Basso.
- Vogue Germany Oktober is interesting but not as good as the above. There's a fur editorial, but with pig-ugly models (almost a tautology these days, I know), which makes one feel this regional edition could do with some tender love & care by Anna Wintour herself. However, to make up for it somewhat, there also also some nice ads by Bonnie, etc. Apparently the people who have to sell the wares themselves know their business a lot better than some of the editorial gurus.
* I like this slideshow, although it has very little fur and the pictures are way too small:
